Reader Beware, You’re in for a Scare
I recently bought and read a book just because the concept reminded me of my favorite childhood books, Goosebumps. There has to be some kind of Goosebumps to Stephen King reading, Halloween obsessed, horror movie afficionado pipeline. We were the weirdos reading about demon worms by moonlight, and now that we have adult money, sometimes, […]
Ghost Camera – Childhood Flashbacks
I’m not going to lie, I choose this book by its cover. I saw the spooky camera and had instant flashbacks to reading Goosebumps by moonlight after my parents sent me to bed.

September is shaping up to be an exciting month for new releases (aren’t they all?!). Check out this list of 16 books releasing this month. ** FYI the last release date in September is full of new Christmas books if you’re ready to get into the holiday spirit. I’ve included 2 here just for my […]
The Book is Always Better – It Ends With Us
CoHo fans rejoiced this weekend as It Ends With Us hit theaters. And boy are there a lot of them. The movie has already grossed over $50 million in its first weekend. I rarely read Hoover, but my sister and mom both liked this one, so I read it as well, and the three of […]
The Great and Powerful Formally Known as Twitter
Twitter is a terrifying monster populated by the craziest, most unhinged people in the universe. Naturally, I created a new twitter account for this blog. Brand spanking new. Two days old as of this writing. I will not be referring to it as X. That’s ridiculous. All of us social media savvy users know that […]
Getting Inked And How to Scare Your Tattoo Artist
I decided to take the plunge and get my first tattoo. A book themed tattoo. Shocking, I know. Apparently, my rebellious spirit is really kicking in as I approach the later part of my 30’s. I’ve wanted a tattoo for a while but haven’t been entirely sure I wouldn’t panic the moment the needle hit […]
Books You Didn’t Read in School But Should Now
Back-to-school season is upon us and the kids are all getting ready to be taught against their will. None of them want to learn math, apparently. Parents are rejoicing in a return to schedules and a little sibling separation. There are only so many times you can listen to small humans argue about the best […]
House of Glass: Secrets, Lies, and Lots of Plastic
Thriller fans, this is yet another excellent new selection. From the very beginning, it’s clear that nothing is as it seems in the Barclay household. This is a family on the brink of disaster and the nanny just plunged to her death from one of the historic home’s windows. Following the death of her nanny, […]
Back to Sanity or Why School Should be Year-Round
Walking through Target, buying only the necessities I assure you, I noticed that the store is fully in back-to-school mode. The entire seasonal section is full of notebooks, pens, and matching backpack and lunchbox sets. Around the main store, you see the signs that school is approaching too. There are teacher mugs and lots of […]
Camping is Always a Bad Idea…pt 2
I somehow read two books in a row about a child going missing, at night, while camping. As an indoorsy person myself, I can’t entirely relate to the need to leave the climate-controlled environment of my home. If these books are to be believed, going outside is how 100% of all tragedies occur. I suggest […]
