My Thoughts on Kissing Ted Callahan
Hello and happy Wednesday. In a few hours, I’ll be going to the airport because I’m traveling to the city where my dad lives to visit him. You can’t tell, but I’m super excited because I love airports and planes, and I’m obviously looking forward to spending the weekend with my dad. When I’m about…

My Thoughts on Fans of the Impossible Life
Hello and happy Tuesday. When I was in my early 20s, I decided I’d write a novel with one of my best friends. Now that I’m revisiting it because I’m back into writing and I want to see what is salvageable, I am faced with the reality that it is extremely pretentious. This is what…

My Thoughts on Extraordinary Means
Hello and happy Monday. I pride myself on being very organized with my book lists, but once in a while I discover that I’ve purchased the same book twice, in different formats. This happened with Extraordinary Means by Robin Schneider, and it ended up working out perfectly because I was halfway through the book on…

My Thoughts on Half a World Away
Hello and happy Sunday. I’m officially on vacation and couldn’t be more excited. Being a teacher is rewarding, but it’s so exhausting. One of the things I had to do this year that won’t be a part of my obligations next year was joining my students in a 20-minute silent reading activity every Friday. I…

My Thoughts on Emmy & Oliver
Hello and happy Saturday. Have you read a novel by a well-known author from before they became well-known? What have you thought about it? I recently read Emmy & Oliver by Robin Benway, who wrote Far From the Tree, a best-seller that was all over booktube a few years ago. I haven’t read Far From…

My Thoughts on Meet Me at the Bus Stop
Hello and happy Friday. Just like yesterday, today’s post will be short, sweet and to the point. I wish I could say the same about the book I read, Meet Me at the Bus Stop by MJ Ray, but I’m 90% sure that I read the audiobook version of an AI-generated novel. The story is…

My Thoughts on An Officer and a Rebel
Hello and happy Thursday. I have several small and silly things to do this afternoon, and writing this post is one of them. There’s not much I can say about An Officer and a Rebel by Cindi Madsen other than it’s a short, quick holiday romance that works perfectly as a palate cleanser or to…

My Thoughts on The Wednesday Wars
Hello and happy Wednesday. I promise, the title of the book and the day I’m posting the review are coincidental. I recently listened to the audiobook of The Wednesday Wars by Gary D. Schmidt. This novel is set in the late 60s in the US during the Vietnam War. This is a historical context that…

My Thoughts on Sawtelle Gemini
Hello and happy Tuesday. How are you liking the daily posts? I wish I could do this more often, but July is the only month when it’s realistic for me. Anyway, I appreciate you and I appreciate having this platform in which I can write about books and other content I’ve consumed. I recently listened…

My Thoughts on The Wizard Returns
Hello and happy Monday. I’m about to walk for a couple of hours, but before that, of course, I had to schedule today’s post, which is about The Wizard Returns by Danielle Paige. Earlier this week I talked about this series, so I’m not going to go over the context again. This novella features the…
