This book will tear your heart out and stomp on it. The author captures the experience of motherhood perfectly. Relevant today because of its depiction of historical events and its representation of the way people treat outsiders.

I liked this book because it is about a witch and there is a place called Hecate where all the witches from 300 years ago when to hide from the men who hunted them. Eloise- 9

If you're looking for nonstop action, then this is the book for you! I love CIA/FBI thrillers, and this new character for me, the Gray Man, was terrific. The story of an off-the-books hero, intervening to get information into the hands of the right people before a political debacle was just what I needed for a "light" summer book. If you like books like Daniel Silva, Vince Flynn or Brad Thor, this will be a good choice. Lots of action between the good guys and the baddies. Women heroes in it, too. And villains!!

A blend of the real and the supernatural, the book poses the question: what if you could have one last meal with someone you've lost? A really unique concept and an interesting story. Well-written.

I didn’t realize this was a book for middle schoolers when I picked it up . That being said the subject matter is very deep, murder, abuse , child lose and grief . I couldn’t gauge the time setting . The 13 year olds have to help out and work crabbing, culling chickens etc and they even smoke cigarettes. I feel it would be hard for children to connect to this book today.

This book was hard to connect to because the main character refers to everyone around her as a title (ex:the husband, the daughter) and refers to no one by name. She is stuck in a less than perfect marriage and is treated as an outcast for her profession as a funeral cryer, which to many makes her bad luck. As soon as she seems to making some changes for her happiness the story kind of abruptly ends. I really wanted more from the ending. One thing I did appreciate about this book was the glimpse into Chinese culture at the time.

I gave this book 2 stars. The story was super predictable—I figured out the twist pretty early. But even though I knew what was coming, I still wanted to see how it all played out. The setting was creepy and the vibes were tense, which helped keep things interesting. It’s a quick read, and if you like thrillers with controlling-relationship drama, it might be your thing. For me, it just didn’t have anything new or surprising. I was hoping for more twists or deeper characters, but it was just okay. Not bad, but not great either.

An historical fiction based on a real person, a former friar in Germany during WWII who joins the resistance and along with his wife encourages the town people to to continue living their lives by supporting each other and especially the children. An uplifting story, beautifully descriptive and emotionally charged.

Wow. This book was amazing. Loki is my favorite Marvel character and the artists and writers did him well. The series covers topics of identity, being yourself, and one’s place in the universe. Some really deep stuff. I love the casual representation in the series of different identities and I love that they stayed true to Loki’s fluid nature. The ending is a bit filled of unknowns, but I’m sure that’s the way Loki likes it. Overall great book! I don’t usually read graphic novels but I’m glad I read this one.
