Clare Parrott (294 KP) rated Escaping Reality (The Secret Life of Amy Bensen, #1) in Books

Feb 13, 2018

Brilliant, another great read from Lisa Renee Jones. This is the first of 2 books, In this book we learn Amy is the only member of her family to survive a fire and is in witness protection. Then her handler contacts her to say shes been rumbled and must leave everything she knows behind and start a new life but shes starts to have doubts on who she can trust.
I enjoyed this book from the very first page and couldn't put it down. Just who can Amy trust? I've still no idea and now I've got to wait 2 months to find out! Roll on book 2

This book was just the book for me. I found myself in love with Felicia Day's quirky and unique experiences. This book is full of fun, horrifying, and hilarious stories that shows the reader just how awesome she is.

Felicia didn't hold back in this book, you get an in depth look into her life and how she became who she is today. You learn about her depression, her health issues, her friendships, and her family.

I'm so glad that I purchased this book. It was quirky and hilarious and I loved every minute of it.

If you're looking for a fun geeky experience, this is the book for you.

Back in Time

Girl: "OMG, hey!! I haven't seen you for so long"

Me: "Hi, I know its been a while"

Girl: "You look so different! You weren't like this before, you've changed..."

This is a conversation I have so many times with old school friends, family members who haven't seen me for a while or general passers-by that like to give me their opinions. I always find that statement odd "you've changed". Like I should remain the same two-dimensional person my entire life. When people tell me I've changed, I usually reply with "I hope so!"

Sarah Betts (103 KP) rated Will the Real Carolyn Keene Please Stand Up in Books

Dec 31, 2019

I was given a copy of this book by NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

I have loved Nancy Drew Mysteries since I was 8. I've had to have read over 200 of the various series.

This book is a wonderful tribute to the character of Nancy and Carolyn, the pen name for the books.

The book spans almost a hundred years and goes into the life of Edward Stratemeyer and have s family and the ghostwriter Mildred.

I'm sure there will be some folks disappointed that this isn't Nancypalooza straight out the gate but it certainly is a cracking good piece of historical fiction.

Re-entering the 100 acre woods

Many of us remember growing up watching our favourite characters from the 100 acre wood; Winnie the pooh, Eyore, Tigger, Piglet...
This new film allows us to reimerse ourselves once again in this world.

We follow Christopher Robin, older now, having lost his childish imagination and sense of adventure. We see him with his own family, who he doesn't have time for and in a job he has poured his attention into yet received nothing in return.

Christopher Robin finds an old friend who helps him remember what is really important and how to overcome the Woozles in your life.
