by M. J. Rose
Spellbinding (5/10/2016)

The Return of the Witch
The Return of the Witch
by Paula Brackston
Magical and magnetic. (1/26/2016)
Mrs. Brackston's book had me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what would happen next. It was spellbinding and moving and I was very pleased with the way it all turned out. Also for a sequel to a book I hadn't read, this book stood wonderfully on it's own. I would …more

Maybe in Another Life

The Well

Lusitania
Lusitania: Triumph, Tragedy, and the End of the Edwardian Age
by Greg King, Penny Wilson
Detailed, beautiful and heartwrenchingly tragic. (12/30/2014)
We read breifly about this in my history class in high school. History remembers the Titanic well but the Lusitania is another tragic sea disaster that is equally real and full of loss. This book is brilliantly laid out and full of mesmerizing historical detail.
The Book of Strange New Things
The Book of Strange New Things: A Novel
by Michel Faber
Mesmerizing and inspiring. (8/20/2014)
This was one of the most beautiful books I have ever read, both the story and the actual book. The author took special care to draw you into a world filled with faith and love. It is one of the most original books I have ever read. Don't miss this one!!!
