I thought this would be kind of an interesting post to start doing right before the beginning of a new month. I personally get a lot of my book ideas from other people saying this is what they're reading at the current moment. It helps broaden my horizons for books that I might not have... Continue Reading →

Um What... I say for the 100th time while reading the last 50 pages of this book. This book was absolutely insane and I loved it! The only reason why I am not giving this book a full 5 out of 5 stars is because the two main characters are incredibly frustrating and at points... Continue Reading →
After reading now both of Alex Michaelides books, he has quickly become an author that no matter what he writes I will read the books he releases. Not just that but I will run (fast walk or drive) to the nearest bookstore to pick up a hard copy because he is just one of those... Continue Reading →
