Already left a review for this week when I posted my previous time. I still feel the same about the book-good read but not one of my favorite books by this author.

Between two fires

While I loved the fresh take on knights in medieval times, I felt this book could have been shortened as it seemed to drag on. Entertaining, but there were times it was difficult to press on.

Strangers: A Memoir of Marriage
by Belle Burden
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Poignant and enlightening, but also sad, this book is the book many divorced women have been waiting for - especially those who have experienced their partner’s secrecy and infidelity. It is a cautionary tale for those entering into a marital relationship, as well. It warns women to keep their heads “out of the sand” and be proactive about their finances and their futures. Divorce is hell, but this book shows that there is a way to get yourself out of the fire and into a life of freedom and joy. Well-written, this is a quick and enjoyable read.

I was very excited about this book. It sucked me in through the first 80% and lost a bit of steam. There were a few loose strings I’d like to have had cleared up . Overall, I enjoyed it yet wanted more from it.

The Plover

The story was cute. I needed about 50 pages to get used to the writing format. No quotation marks to mark conversations. I often confused if Declan or an unknown entity was narrating. I also had to get used to Declan's way of speaking/talking. I really loved that the birds became characters. I've only just read it and will probably have more profound things to say later, but for now it was enjoyable.

Blood in the water

Good summer read. Solid mystery. Low danger/peril moments for such an interesting title. No sharks actually encountered. :(

The Funeral Cryer
by Wenyan Lu

book cover


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.

Incidents around the house

3.5 stars. A little repetitive in The middle I also don’t know how I expected them to survive this novel, but I was really hoping that it wouldn’t be a dismal ending and I was disappointed. I wanted them to somehow fight back however it felt like a letdown that even though I couldn’t come up with a way for them to live. The author couldn’t either.

Loki: Agent Of Asgard - The Complete Collection
by Al Ewing

book cover


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.
