I can't write books so I review them instead
I think I chose this novel because it had an interesting premise. I don’t recall how it is that I stumbled upon it; it certainly wasn’t on any big list that I was following. But either way, I placed a hold on it and waited patiently for a chance to read it. Well, now I…
I was really hesitant to read this novel. It just seemed too … tragic. And I also don’t really like reading novels that deal with issues of race and culture and stereotypes. I think this hesitation comes from the fact that I myself had to deal with these issues as a child and would read…
This novel sounded like your usual thriller about two sisters falling apart because of some tragedy and then something brings them back and they solve everything. So my expectations for this novel were not too high. I mean, there have been so many thrillers that have a similar story line that I really wasn’t expecting…
So I know it may seem like I haven’t been reading but I promise you that I have! I’ve just not had the time to sit down and write about it in this blog. And I feel terrible about it, I really do. But it has been such a mission to just finish reading all…
I have literally been waiting for this book for close to 7 months, which is a VERY long time. Something about the idea of psychics and demonologists is just so enticing that I can’t help but grab any book on that topic. This novel is no exception. Sylvie’s parents have an unusual career: they are…

Remember how I had mentioned that I had placed a bunch of books on hold in the hopes that they would become available during my Christmas break from school? Well, lucky for me, I got them all now. Two days before school starts. Hooray. I’m hoping you can sense the sarcasm here. Anyways, I’m going…
The first book I ever read by this author was when I was 12 years old and I remember it being a really good romantic teen fiction (it’s been a while since I read it so I may be wrong). When I was recommended this novel, for some reason, I found myself hesitant. Maybe the…
I had this book on my Wishlist and had the perfect opportunity to buy it during the Black Friday sale at Indigo. Now I usually don’t buy books I haven’t read; I like to test if a book is worth the purchase first. I hate buying something that I end up not liking or not…
So I have had quite an adventure with this novel. When I first picked it up, I has no idea that this was by the same person who wrote Cloud Atlas (which I haven’t read or watched but I’ve heard amazing things about it so I probably should do both). I began reading it sometime…
