HOW TO LEAD A LIFE OF CRIME by Kirsten Miller

December 11, 2013

It took me a few days to recover from this one. Don’t take it the wrong way. I have so much love for How to Lead a Life of Crime! I can’t think of a book I have read the past couple of years that can even remotely compare! Reading this book caused an internal…

TAGGED by Mara Purnhagen

November 12, 2013

I present to you another book that grapples with graffiti. Unlike in Graffiti Girl by Kelly Parra, The Colour of Trouble by Gerry Bobsien and getting Up by SD Thorpe, here the main character is not the one involved in graffiti. She is an innocent bystander who comes to be embroiled in the whole issue when a piece…
