Book Review: In a Dark Dark Wood
My husband picked this book for me one day we visited Barnes and Noble and I was looking for a good mystery book. I read Gone Girl and LOVED IT and then I read Girl on the Train and liked…
Book Review: Red Queen
I have been seeing this book around a lot… or, more than others, at least. I couldn’t resist the temptation when I learned it was about people with superpowers (because I love people with superpowers). I took it off the…

Book Review: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
