I got a great book haul for Christmas this year! My husband asked for a few books that were on my wish list and then he delivered, just like Santa. This was one that I read about on a internet list somewhere of books that were creepy or scary or something like that. The premise … Continue reading In the House in the Dark of the Woods Book Review
The Little Stranger Book Review
I found my copy of The Little Stranger at our library's annual used book sale they host in the fall. I had read one previous book by Sarah Waters and enjoyed it, so when I read the description of this one (gothic, spooky, ghosts!), I was sold. Once we got home from the sale and … Continue reading The Little Stranger Book Review
Killer Jam Book Review
I picked up this cozy mystery back in 2018 while the Kindle book was on sale. For $2.00, I don't know how anyone can pass up a book called Killer Jam. Anyone? Just me? Well, obviously I couldn't pass it up. I've really gotten into cozy mysteries in the last few years. I think it's … Continue reading Killer Jam Book Review
What I Read in 2018 Plus 18 Mini-Reviews
I was serious slacker in 2018! At least when it came to reading and blogging. My husband and I bought a house and moved, so that took up a lot of my time last year and not as much reading or blogging seemed to get done. My goal for 2018 was to read 30 books. … Continue reading What I Read in 2018 Plus 18 Mini-Reviews
What I Read in 2017
I set my reading goal for 2017 at 25 books, and I was able to read 30 (woo hoo!). This means I'm setting my 2018 reading goal for 30 books. I can't wait to see what 2018 holds! What I Read in 2017: Thirteen Guests (Fiction, J. Jefferson Farjeon) The Library at Mount Char (Fiction, … Continue reading What I Read in 2017
Murder at Honeychurch Hall Book Review
Sometimes Brad and I like to meander through Barnes and Noble. To be honest, I don't know any book lovers who don't love a good meander through any book store, but I digress. One day, we were taking a stroll through the local B&N when I happened across this book on the bargain shelf. I've … Continue reading Murder at Honeychurch Hall Book Review
The Alice Network Book Review
This book was the latest read in our Land Mermaids Book Club, and it did not disappoint. We have a member with a penchant for WWII historical fiction. She said she tried not to pick this book, but she just couldn't help it. I told her #yolo and #beyourself and #sorrynotsorry, cause, you know, I'm … Continue reading The Alice Network Book Review
A Study in Scarlet Women Book Review
At our latest Land Mermaid meeting, we met for Mexican food (and also discussed this book). We tried out a new taco place in town, and it was disappointing. My tacos were so tiny, and I am a hungry person. They sat the plate down, and I was immediately distraught by the three tiny tacos … Continue reading A Study in Scarlet Women Book Review
My Best Friend’s Exorcism Book Reivew
Last fall, I wanted to read a spooky book for our "sometime close to around Halloween" book club meeting. We don't follow a strict meeting schedule so "fall-ish" is as close as I can remember to when we read this, but boy, it did not disappoint with the spooky. Months later, it has stuck with … Continue reading My Best Friend’s Exorcism Book Reivew
The Library at Mount Char Book Review
For the Land Mermaids, this was our first book club read of 2017. We met at a new Indian restaurant in town called India Oven, and it was amazing. I had a saag paneer that I still think about on a regular basis. I need to get back there during lunch hours because they have … Continue reading The Library at Mount Char Book Review
