Book Review: Wrong Place, Right Time by E.B. Roshan
This was something a bit new to me. I’ve read romance books and I’ve read dystopian books, but never the mix. What a treat to discover!…

Book Review: Yesterday, Today, and Forever by Maria von Trapp
Though this book wasn’t at all what I thought it was going to be, I was pleasantly surprised with the content I got instead…

Book Review: Once Upon A Wardrobe by Patti Callahan
Having finally finished all of the Narnia series, I’m ready to branch out and explore Narnia and C.S. Lewis-inspired books. Though this one is really a Christmas book, I’ve read it at the end of spring…
