Raven
I... don't even think that I can find the words to describe this book and I'm not sure I will be able too for some time.. but this book was ABSOLUTELY heartwarming and was such a joyous book to read. I can proudly say that I recommend this to everybody. More than one lesson is taught and honestly this book deserves more than 5 stars. I'm just so struck by it that I don't even know what else to add. This book was so freaking extravagant. The characters, the time frame, the idea, the plot twist, everything. This book lured me in and I'm so glad it did. Reading this book felt like a gift. I absolutely devoured this book. This book will forever have a place in my heart
Full Dark, No Stars Review
1922- I loved this book. No doubt in my mind that I wouldn't read it again in the future. Learned more than I would have thought. 5/5
Big Driver- This one was the hardest to read. As a female you have to carefully watch your back in this world. The main character in this book had gotten raped and when it happened it was like a whole other person when she left. After that it took a TURN! Overall a strong 5/5!
Fair Extension- This book showed me to be grateful for what I have because I don't know when it could be taken away. The main character makes a deal with the devil then it all goes downhill from there. Don't really have much to say about this book considering it was short but I saw it as a little realistic..? 4.5/5
Lastly A good marriage- This one was also hard to read. Considering the lessons I learned this book made me a little weary because that one person you love and thought different of could be a whole other person and you wouldn't even expect it but it's a strong 5/5 !
