I was very surprised when I was not on the edge of my seat, eager to turn the page to see what would happen next. That said, when I turned the final page of The Great Alone and … Continue reading BOOK CHALLENGE 10 OF 24: The Great Alone

As a lover of the fantasy world of magic, the film, Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman, and more recently The Rules of Magic I figured the book Practical Magic would be just as lovely. Unfortunately, in my opinion, it … Continue reading Book Challenge 7 of 24: Practical Magic

Book 3 of 24: The Sun is Also a Star

At the age of 17, like the characters within this book I also dated someone outside my race. That said, at the time it wasn’t really “dating”.

Although the neighborhood I … Continue reading Book 3 of 24: The Sun is Also a Star
