The Astral Library

I love Kate Quinns books which are usually historical fiction. This story was more fantasy and I struggled ro get through it. Sadly not for me.

Deadly Animals
by Marie Tierney

book cover


Dark, macabre, subject matter, but so interesting and suspenseful. Ava is an extraordinary 14 year old: studious, compassionate, analytical, whip-smart—and very interested in death: how animals die, the rate at which they decompose, etc. She studies this with a scientific remove, yet also with compassion. During her clandestine studies she finds a the body of her missing classmate, and thus the story begins. This book is beautifully written, and the characters are complex and convincingly rendered. Unlike anything else I've read. Highly recommend.

Decent follow up from book 1. Likable characters. Somewhat predictable ending. Will follow up with book 3

I really liked this book because the mystery was very unexpected. The book was written from multiple perspectives, including the letters that were written to the husband which lended a lot of insight into the characters relationship.

At first I thought this book was very silly but once I got about 1/2 way through it got better. I started to like Vera more and see her transform and develop.

Dog Man, Grime and Punishment

book cover


This book was great and I would recommend. This book was good because the plot line of they story is funny and mostly, random, and literally about a lunch bag, the deeper meaning is hidden throughout the book through similes, metaphors, and various other ways, the book is not the best read but not the worst either, I personally found it a bit boring for my age. Perfect for ages 5-10 (or possibly older)

The Summer Place
by Jennifer Weiner

book cover


A typical beach read from Jennifer Weiner taking place on the outer Cape. I have read many of her books and have enjoyed them for their storytelling and pure escapism. This one did not disappoint although I had to construct a family tree to keep track of all the twists and turns. There were so many skeletons in the closet with this one especially when Ronnie’s son ended up having a tryst with her granddaughter’s fiancé. The author always ties up her books with a big reveal at the end.

I loved this book. It was like a walk down memory lane as he describes the roles he did and his journey through Hollywood.

Stay Awake

Silly premise and not much of a twist at the end. Might make a better movie than book. I liked the Night Swim better.
