I can't write books so I review them instead
*EDITED: My friend had told me about this book and for some reason she had mentioned that it was on Oprah’s book list. However, she was mistaken in the fact. Nevertheless, I usually avoid books on that list. Not because they are bad or anything but rather because I find that they all have the…
When I first read the teaser on the back of the novel, I knew I had to read this novel. It sent chills down my back and I could envision it going in so many different directions. As expected, I would never have guessed the ending. So without further ado, here is the review: Losing…

I really need to move on to a new genre of books! I promise that the next book review I write will not be about anything dark or disturbing. Paul Lohman and his wife Claire are meeting Paul’s brother, Serge, and his wife Babette at a restaurant. Although all pretenses make it seem like this…
For the first time in my life, my father recommended a book to me. My father was actually quite a reader when he was younger but somehow, he gave up on it when he got married. I’ve always recommended books to him or given him some of mine to read but he always refused. So…

So here is my review: When Cassandra’s grandmother Nell passes away, she discovers that Nell had a very big secret: she was adopted. The only thing linking…
