Title: Batman: Nightwalker Author: Marie Lu Published: 2018 I'm a comic geek at heart. Specifically, I'm a DC Comics geek. So whenever there's something new and interesting about DC's iconic characters, in any medium, I'm all over it. I actually didn't know this book existed until I came across it at the library recently. I … Continue reading Batman: Nightwalker

The End of Oz
I realize I never wrote my thoughts regarding any of the previous books in the Dorothy Must Die series of novels. With The End of Oz being the fourth and (presumably) final book in the series, I think it's safe to say I enjoyed them. Please, do yourself a favor and read them before picking … Continue reading The End of Oz
Stargirl
Title: Stargirl Author: Jerry Spinelli Published: 2000 I've had something of a thing for nostalgia lately. I've been picking up some books that I enjoyed reading as a kid. No, Stargirl is not one of those books. I was 20 years old when this book was first published. But its author, Jerry Spinelli, wrote one … Continue reading Stargirl
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Title: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Authors: J.K. Rowling, John Tiffany, and Jack Thorne Published: 2016 I've purposely waited a couple weeks to write this. I actually finished reading this play some time ago. I wanted to make sure I was not just making a rash review of the thing. I really wanted to … Continue reading Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
Cujo
Title: Cujo Author: Stephen King Published: 1981 I have a confession to make... A lot of the book reviews that I've been including on the blog are reviews that I had done on my previous blog. There are a lot of those old reviews that I've skipped because they're for books that I would like … Continue reading Cujo
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
Title: The Legend of Sleepy Hollow Author: Washington Irving Published: 1820 This is a story I've heard and seen in probably a dozen different versions but never actually read. It's a classic and it's really not long at all. So when I looked for a free ebook that I could knock out pretty quickly, I … Continue reading The Legend of Sleepy Hollow
Stories From a Teacher
Title: Stories From a Teacher Author: Jonathan Flores Published: 2012 Some time ago, I saw something on Facebook about BookBub. It's a service that provides information about free and discounted ebooks that are available. This encouraged me to sign up. Since then, I've downloaded dozens of free books to my Kindle. Stories From a Teacher … Continue reading Stories From a Teacher
Treasure Island
Title: Treasure Island Author: Robert Louis Stevenson Published: 1883 For a very long time, I've steered clear of books that are considered classic literature. In most cases, I'm sure it's out of a fear that somehow my 11th grade American Lit. teacher will appear from nowhere and expect me to write an exhaustive paper on … Continue reading Treasure Island
Firestarter
Title: Firestarter Author: Stephen King Published: 1980 I feel like I've been reading this book forever. I started it about six months ago and have just been picking at it here and there when I feel like I've had time in between other things I've been reading and dealing with work stuff. I'm usually a … Continue reading Firestarter
A Million Miles in a Thousand Years
Title: A Million Miles in a Thousand Years Author: Donald Miller Published: 2011 Donald Miller made a splash in the world of Christian non-fiction with his bestseller Blue Like Jazz. I never read it. But I know it was a big hit among folks in my age group at the time. For a long time, … Continue reading A Million Miles in a Thousand Years
