Review: Eleanor and Grey by Brittainy C. Cherry

Eleanor & Grey, an all-new beautiful and emotional standalone from Brittainy C. Cherry is available now! Greyson East left his mark on me. As the young girl who first fell for him, I didn’t know much about life. I did know about his smiles, though, and his laughs, and the strange way my stomach flipped when he was near. Life was perfect…until it wasn’t, and when we were forced to go our separate ways, I held on to our memories, let go of my first crush, and wished for the day I’d find him again. When my wish came true, it was nothing like I imagined. I couldn’t have known when I took the nanny position that it would be his children I looked after, that my new boss would be that boy I used to know, that boy who was now a man—a cold, lonely, detached man. The smile and laugh I had loved so much were gone, now distant memories. Every part of him was covered in a fresh pain. When he realized who I was, he made me promise to do my job and my job only. He made me promise not to try to ge

Harper Summer 2016 Tour: Girl Against the Universe

Look! You came back to me! Due to a snafu, the regularly scheduled blog didn't get their post up, but I didn't want you to miss out on today's book (which is one of my favorites from the catalog!) and the keyword!!!



Maguire is bad luck.

No matter how many charms she buys off the internet or good luck rituals she performs each morning, horrible things happen when Maguire is around. Like that time the rollercoaster jumped off its tracks. Or the time the house next door caught on fire. Or that time her brother, father, and uncle were all killed in a car crash—and Maguire walked away with barely a scratch.

It’s safest for Maguire to hide out in her room, where she can cause less damage and avoid meeting new people who she could hurt. But then she meets Jordy, an aspiring tennis star. Jordy is confident, talented, and lucky, and he’s convinced he can help Maguire break her unlucky streak. Maguire knows that the best thing she can do for Jordy is to stay away. But it turns out staying away is harder than she thought.

Blog Tour: And I Darken by Kiersten White

Top Ten YA Books That Use Genre to Tell True Stories My favorite genres are the ones that use non-real-world elements, such as sci-fi, dystopian, fantasy, and historical fiction. When done right, it’s exactly those larger-than-life elements that tell the truest parts of the story. I wanted to examine how good people get to the point where they can commit atrocities in the name of their goals. Using a gender-swapped, notorious historical figure made an odd sort of sense. I could explore everything I wanted to, but on a grand, lavish scale. And even though And I Darken is set in the 1400s, the parallels to today’s political and cultural climate are inescapable. I hope it feels visceral and familiar, in spite of the centuries between us. In that vein, I selected ten books I feel use their genre to tell the truest, most timely stories they can. 1–2. Alexandra Duncan’s SALVAGE and SOUND Both of these books are sci-fi, set in the future where space travel and even colonization are a reality

Weekly Round-Up 9/2

Weekly Round-Up is my wrap-up of last week's activities and includes what I'm reading this week, reviews I've posted, books in the mail and anything else of interest plus From the Library, my weekly listing of what I've checked out from the library. This week I'm reading Something Strange and Deadly by Susan Dennard and then finishing The Cuckoo's Calling and listening to The Peculiar by Stefan Bachmann, read by Peter Altschuler. I'm reading Nick and Tesla's High-Voltage Lab   by Bob Pflugfelder and Steve Hockensmith with my son right now. I think I will start featuring the chapter and middle grade books we are reading together. Last week I reviewed She Stoops to Conquer by Oliver Goldsmith. Something Strange and Deadly by Susan Dennard The year is 1876, and there’s something strange and deadly loose in Philadelphia… Eleanor Fitt has a lot to worry about. Her brother has gone missing, her family has fallen on hard times, and her mother is d

Review: Change Places With Me by Lois Metzger

Review: CHANGE PLACES WITH ME is a quiet, unassuming book that will unfortunately slip by a lot of readers. But it's a subtly disturbing book that makes you pause and think and wonder. Lois Metzger's beautifully written prose is haunted and almost lyrical. This book is definitely ... different. I'm not sure exactly what I expected when I started it, but I don't think it was this. It was a pleasant surprise. This book can only be described as a mystery shrouded in an enigma.  It's a fairly fast read, but I loved taking my time and savoring over the course of an afternoon. Metzger's writing and her heroine, Rose, are compelling and make for a great narrative. ABOUT CHANGE PLACES WITH ME: Rose has changed. She still lives in the same neighborhood with her stepmother and goes to the same high school with the same group of kids, but when she woke up today, something was just a little different than it was before. The dogs who live upstairs are no longer a terror. He
