Our Chemical Hearts
Review: I received a review copy of this from Goodreads and since there are lots of long and detailed reviews already I’m just going to do a thumbnail review. Overall I’d have to say I enjoyed myself as I was reading this but it’s definitely a novel that requires a little suspension of disbelief the … Continue reading
The Arab of the Future: A Childhood in the Middle East, 1978-1984: A Graphic Memoir
Review: This was another one of those random grabs off the graphic novel shelf of my local library branch. Then a few weeks ago it turned up on the top 1o list of graphic novels or manga that have stuck with you of a friend whose opinion I really trust …so I guess it was … Continue reading
The Forbidden Orchid
OMG!!!!! This had everything I could want in a book! This story takes place in 1861–the year after the “Opium Wars” had finally ended between England and China. Elodie is the eldest of ten sisters who’s father is a plant hunter, spending most of his time in exotic locations and then showing … Continue reading
In Another Life
Review: I wanted to love this book with comparisons to Susanna Kearsley having been made but I was confused too often so it loses half a star. Glad to have given it a try. Original post: lindacbugg.booklikes.com/post/1423681/in-another-life
The Vanishing Throne
Review: I loved this! Much darker than book one of the series so be prepared. For people who loved all the gadgets in book one, you are going to be disappointed because there is none of that in this volume. Lots of death and destruction and loss with another cliffhanger ending that will have … Continue reading
The Turner House
Review: This probably wouldn’t have come across my radar without the Detroit connection and might have languished on my TBR shelf if it hadn’t turned up at my local library in the front area new book shelves–one of the best (and most dangerous) areas in the library. The Turner House is the story of … Continue reading

The Shadowy Horses
I love Susanna Kearsley!! Reading her (for me at least) is the literary equivalent of a favorite old sweater–comforting and warm. Almost as soon as I start I can feel it gathering around me like a safe little bubble. They are not for everyone–the romances in them always seem to end a little too perfectly … Continue reading
