THE THING ABOUT THE TRUTH by Lauren Barnholdt

February 22, 2014

The Thing About the Truth is one of those books that swing back and forth between the present and the past. Had I read it as an absurd text, I might have had greater appreciation for it but I doubt that was anywhere near Barnholdt’s intention. Stuck in the present, we glimpse Kelsey and Isaac…

MY LIFE NEXT DOOR (My Life Next Door #1) by Huntley Fitzpatrick

February 19, 2014

PIROUETTE by Robyn Bavati

February 8, 2014

Once in a while I pick up a book solely because of the author. I’ve read a book by that author before, loved it and decided to just go ahead and read whatever comes next. That’s how it went for Pirouette. Besides knowing that this book revolves around dance (I mean, duh, the title and…
