4 stars A fun read that explores the idea of life on other planets. The thing that stood out most to me was the artwork. The story itself is pretty simple, but that artwork is gorgeous. I loved all of the space art. The pictures are just beautiful.  While the story is simple, there is…

3 stars As with any anthology-style collection, you’re going to have stories that are amazing and some that are okay and some you don’t really connect to. This one was no exception. Some of the stories were so great I didn’t want them to end while others were just alright. There were none that I…

2 stars I read The Five People You Meet in Heaven a few years ago. I remember really enjoying it, but honestly I don’t remember anything about it. While this is a sequel to the first book, it is only loosely connected and can be read as a standalone.  Overall, I thought this book was okay. The…

3 stars A cute book about, you guessed it, an angry cookie. Similar to books like Don’t Push the Button! and Mo Willems‘s Pigeon series, this book deals with a cookie having a pretty rough day, which is eventually divulged to the reader. Not much in the plot department, but a fun read-aloud book with a heartwarming ending….

4 stars As I sit here snuggling with my cat, I thought it would be a good time to review some of the picture books I got from the library. This one is one of my favorites in my latest haul. This is such a cute story. It is fairly simple, but very adorable. This…

5 stars Yes, yes, I was initially drawn to this book at the library because of its similarity to Prince & Knight. I honestly didn’t realize that it was the same author because it looks so different. It isn’t just a female version of Prince & Knight. It is its own unique, amazing book.  Nice rhymes….

4 stars I won a copy of Have a Nice Guilt Trip a few years ago and remember enjoying it. So when I saw this audiobook at the library, I thought it would be a good laugh.  The Scottolines are just as funny as I remember. I think one of the reasons that this series is so…

2 stars Okay read. Mostly I don’t think it was a great fit for me. I picked up the audiobook from the library because I was looking for a short book and have a guilty pleasure for reading books written by famous people who didn’t get famous by writing books. Basically, this book covers how…

2 stars This book sat on my To-Be-Read shelf for quite a while, because I felt I needed to be in the right mindset to read it and have enough time to enjoy it and really digest it. I finally brought it with me on a road trip to read and honestly, I was just…
