  • Finished reading this today. This book continues following the Grace children on their adventure. The children go to visit their Aunt Lucinda in the hope that they find answers about the Guide, however, I don’t think they expected the answers that they got. Plus, the children are introduced to even more creatures that they haven’t…

Only the seeing stone allows them to see the goblins, along with the other creatures they encounter in the woods, in the…

  • Just finished reading the first book in the Spiderwick Chronicles. I thought it was a great introduction into this children’s series. I feel like the characters are relatable. Mallory, the oldest of the Grace children, is kind of a tomboy. The twins, Jared and Simon, are about 3 years younger than her. Simon is the…

  • I read many different literary genres…..mystery, thriller/suspense, horror, historical fiction, fantasy, science fiction, poetry, romance, crime drama, etc. I’ll even read young adult (teens) and children’s stuff if the story line is good and will hold my attention. I tend to switch back and forth all the time when I’m reading…..I never stay on the…

  • I finally finished reading this one. I like horror and I happen to like books that a bunch of short stories in them. This has both of those. However, I think this is made for younger audiences……like maybe around the 10 to 12 year olds. The book was still good, mind you. I did enjoy…

  • I finished reading this one last night and I have to say that I enjoyed it (despite the fact that this book was geared towards children). I like how Ware and Jolene start bonding the further along we go in the book. It’s not like a romantic smoochy kiss-y type of interaction, it’s more of…

  • My latest run…

    I think I really overdid it this time on my latest run to the book store. This past weekend my hubby went to some kind of baseball convention that was 2 hours away from where we live. While dropping him off at that event, I went to the book store that was just up the…
