Come Tumbling Down (Wayward Children #5)

Stars 5/5

Come Tumbling Down (Wayward Children #5) by Seanan McGuire

This is the fifth book in the Wayward Children series and I just loved it. I think the only complaint that I have about this book is that it is so short. I love all the characters and the worlds. It is so unique and creative. I just can't wait for the next book to see what door we will go through next. This book begins with Jack making an appearance back at the school and needs helps. She recruits her friends to come back through her door into her world to help stop her twin sister Jill. I don't want to say more as to not spoil it but OMG this series is a must read.

14 (Taylor Jackson #2)

Stars 5/5

14 (Taylor Jackson #2) by J.T. Ellison

This is the second book in the Taylor Jackson series and I just loved it. I am so into this series and can not wait to read the next book! The story continues to follow Homicide Detective Taylor Jackson and her fiance as they are on a new case. The Snow White killer has made a comeback or at least they think he has. Women fitting the description of the fairy tale princess are being found dead after decades since the last woman was found. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend it.

All The Bright Places

Stars 2/5

All The Bright Places by Jennifer Niven

I really loved the writing style of this author and the first half of the book was amazing. I loved how the characters came together and the friendship that bonded them. What I didn't like was the last half of the book including the ending. I understand things sometimes happen in books that I do not like but honestly this was just a huge let down. Hope just washed away and honestly, I think there is enough hopelessness in the world especially for such young high school kids. So that is why I have to say that I don't believe this book was for me but I will definitely be checking out other books from this author.

Be You!

Stars 5/5

Be You! by Peter H. Reynolds

I was sent an ARC of this book from the publisher and I just loved it. This is definitely one book you should read to kids. It is inspirational and supportive in being who you are. Bright and colorful illustrations makes this a book for kids of all ages. I highly recommend it.

For Every One

Stars 5/5

For Every One by Jason Reynolds

This short book features an inspirational poem/letter that the author wrote to himself to help him press on in life never losing his dreams. It is a beautiful poem that I believe everyone should read or be read to the kids. I am so very glad Jason Reynolds shared these wonderful words with us. I highly recommend it for all ages.

All The Pretty Girls (Taylor Jackson #1)

Stars 5/5

All The Pretty Girls (Taylor Jackson #1) by J.T. Ellison

This is the first book in the Taylor Jackson series and I am hooked! The story follows Homicide Detective Taylor Jackson and her boyfriend FBI profiler, John Baldwin, as they are both on separate cases but when a serial killer John is tracking comes to Nashville, Taylor and John must work together to solve the case. Plus did I mention, there is a serial rapist at large as well. Lots of investigating goodness! I highly recommend this book and can't wait to read on in the series.

Crooked House

Stars 5/5

Crooked House by Agatha Christie

This is definitely not my first time reading this book but I just love it so I wanted to re-visit this world because it has been a long time. This is one of Agatha Christie's stand alone mysteries and it is an awesome read. The story follows a family that just finds their Father/Grandfather dead and it was murder. As always in Agatha Christie novels, there are lots of twists and turns and this may be one book that you just can't guess the "Who Done It?" until the very end and I do believe the ending in this one is really unique. I don't want to say more as to not spoil it but I highly recommend it.
