Book Review
Review: The Fell of Dark
Fell of Dark, by Caleb Roehrig, is a book about vampires for people who don’t like books about vampires, and also people who do like books about vampires. It’s a ton of fun with a fantastic supporting cast.
Review: The Need
The Need, by Helen Phillips, is a crazy, gripping, page-turner of a book that will leave you wondering “what did I just read?” I can’t remember who recommended it to me, but I’m glad they did.
Review: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes
The surprise announcement of a Hunger Games prequel, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, took the young adult book world by storm. I picked it as one of my most anticipated books of 2020.

Review: The Similars
The Similars, by Rebecca Hanover, is a thriller set at a boarding school in the near-future. The biotechnology to produce human clones exists, but it’s banned in many countries. Imagine the surprise when six clones show up for class at an elite boarding school – and they’re the exact replica of six current students.
Review: They Went Left
They Went Left, by bestselling author Monica Hesse, is the heartbreaking story of a girl, freed from a Nazi concentration camp, intent on finding her younger brother. It was one of my most anticipated books of 2020 and surpassed my high expectations.
