Book Review: Loved by P.C. Cast + Kristin Cast

Hey all, it's Sarah! I have loved House of Night (HoN) since I first started reading it several years ago. The romance mixed with blood sucking vampires and realistic (ish) characters had me hooked.

New Book Review: The Authentics by Abdi Nazemian

Howdy all, it's Sarah! I received this ARC through Edelweiss. My spell checker is not having fun with this title. Though, I did have fun with this title.

New Book Review: Refugee by Alan Gratz

Hey all, it's Sarah! This novel found its way into my bags from BEA. When I first uncovered it, I had no idea where it came from or what it was about. I anticipated a lame sci-fi novel, but what I actually found was much better! This book is important for today's society and will …

Tween Book Review: The Loser’s Club by Andrew Clements

Hey all, it's Sarah! I remember reading Frindle in the fifth grade. At that point I wrote it off as a silly boy book...give me a break, I was ten! As I grew up, Clements continued to put out book after book after book. The children at my library were devouring his novels and having …
