Review of the Month: Magic Lessons
or those of us ready to escape 2020, Magic Lessons will certainly take you away. (Do you really want to be transported to 1680, though? The ultimate question.)
Review of the Month: Severance
I read this novel and kept stopping, refreshing CNN, and wondering how far off we actually are. Severance is a hard read, because it's eerily familiar to what's going on with COVID-19. (You know, minus the part where it's the total end of the world and only a literal handful of people survive.)

Cassidy Holmes is a near overnight celebrity thanks to the rapid success of her girl group, Gloss. Together, the four young Glossies are at the top of the early 2000s pop scene until suddenly... it implodes.

A Throwback Look at Twilight
It's been quite sometime since I've read the Twilight series. It may have been sometime in 2007 that I initially picked up the book, but it was my high school days of yore that I really fell into the Meyer trap.
Pre-Release Review: Little Bookshop of Murder
To absolutely no one's surprise, I was an English major in college. We would have regularly scheduled workshop and critique days with pages and pages of rough draft material. Poetry, well-done thriller, poorly-done romance, almost complete personal narratives. If it was someone's brain child, we dove into it.
