DNF books
We all have books that you DNF (did not finish). I hate not finishing a book once I start. I especially hate it when it is a popular book that everyone else loves. This last book that I DNF is very popular. I waited a long time for the book on Overdrive too. The book Read more
Review: “Columbine” by Dave Cullen
I am giving this novel a 5 star review. I could not put it down. This novel was interesting, intriguing, and scary. I sadly remember this tragedy and was in high school.

I am giving this novel a 5 star review. I debated to give it a 4.5 review, but I just loved the plot and characters so much. I just love Katherine Center’s writing style and characters. In this novel, the main character loses her husband to a car accident and moves her family into her Read more
Review of “Dear Edward” by Ann Napolitano
Unpopular opinion: I am rating this novel a 3.5 star rating. Something was missing in this story. I did not connect to it. I felt emotionally withdrawn from the characters.
