Nothing More To Tell
by Karen M. McManus

This was a pretty decent book. As the writer of One of us is lying I definitely expected more from her but it's not a horrible book. The relationship between the Tripp an the main character is great and the murder mystery is also pretty good although the murderer was pretty obvious.

A great story about love, family. A couple who spent their life together entertain, to sing, to dance. The O'Hurleys started out with a family of one boy when Mrs. O'Hurley went into labor while in route to one of the shows. To the family's surprise triplets were born, all girls. The children were raised to travel on the road taught to sing, dance and entertain just as their parents were. As they grew up, they all choose different lives. The bond the trippets had remained strong. Obstacles in life, divorces and finding love again, first loves the family always was there for one another.

This was a really exciting book. There are a lot of twists and surprises throughout. It was worth reading although the second half the reader can relax a little.

this has to be one of the best books i've ever read. sapphism plus true crime? of course I'm going to love it. The "a good girls guide to murder" vibes kept me hooked the entire time. and I absolutely loved lea and iris's relationship. they were amazing !! also, the scene were iris got shot by Mr. cooper and the detective and everyone else came was just so emotional and perfect. 100% would recommend this book and I would love to reread it again for the first time. there weren't any plot holes and the plot twist was unpredictable. absolutely adored this book. <333

Only For The Week

This story is more than just a steamy fling — it’s a soft, grown-up exploration of choosing joy even when life has hardened you. The characters feel like real people with history, hesitation, and heart, and the narration brings every look and pause to life. It’s short, yes — but it lingers in the best way.

this book is for sure my favorite in the series. I could not stop reading! Jurdan is one of my favorite ships ever and the series is literally the epitome of enemies to lovers (especially in the fantasy genre) and I am sure to reread this series again. I was so invested in the book it physically hurt to finish it. all the description and emotion was so surreal I LOVED it.

Beloved

book cover


5 stars “And no one, nobody on this earth, would list her daughter’s characteristics on the animal side of the paper…She felt she had to convince, that what she had done was right because it came from true love.” pg. 296 Though in the beginning might seem to be a slower read, once you really get into the book, you’ll find collective trauma and love of each and every character. Trauma creates fear, which in turn creates love. The trauma of slavery: being seen as an animal and the set monitary value placed on not only yourself, but other Black people; the fear of slave hunters and klan members coming after you to lynch, burn or kill in other horrific ways; And if not to kill—to dirty your soul and mind. The fear of: Being haunted by the ghosts (both living and dead) from your past; The child that roams the halls in rage of death, but the love of: doing anything for your children, even if it means taking matters into your own hands; slowly opening the tin box that conceals your heart; finally stepping off those porch steps to ask for help, to feel the embrace of another being. For my second Toni Morrison book, this was a great read. I agree wholeheartedly with the statement that Morrison’s books are all about love, especially for Black people and our community.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is the fifth book in the series. In this book it is Harry Potter's fifth year at Hogwarts. Harry has to face many challenges in his fifth year. Lord Voldemort returns while the Ministry of Magic refuses to acknowledge that he has returned. This was a really good read and I rate it five stars.
