2 stars I received this book through Goodreads in exchange for an honest review. Like many other readers and reviewers, I did not know that this was a prequel to The Book of Speculation. This is completely understandable given that this book is in no way presented as if it were a prequel. It looks…

4 stars This is one of those terrifying books that is eye-opening in the most horrifying ways because it happens all the time. Even though this book was written in the 1970s, it is still sadly very relevant today. Bullying has changed a lot since the book was written, but it is still very widespread….

2 stars I received a free copy of this graphic novel. This is a pretty cute book. I was not really a fan of the pictures since they appear to just be stills from the TV show. This works for the most part for character shots, but a lot of the action gets overlooked this…

5 stars Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. I really didn’t think the first Harry Potter book could get more magical, but Jim Kay proved me wrong. This is an amazing edition. The artwork is breath-taking. There are so many wonderful illustrations in this book. While there are quite a few pages that do not have illustrations (or…

4 stars I love this series so much. Great writing. Very funny. I really like the complexity of the characters. As with the first book, I enjoyed this book more than the TV series. I vaguely remember season two of the show, but from what I remember, most of what happened in the book did…

4 stars I received this book from the author. This is a great collection of short stories. Beautiful, unique writing. A must-read for fans of Haidji. The collection seemed to be more based in reality rather than fantasy in comparison to the first collection. But the stories are still very interesting, acting as parables and…

3 stars I picked this up at the Little Free Lending Library. It is the first Littles book that I have read. I really liked the premise of the series. It is fantastical and fascinating. This was a well-written book. Simple, yet interesting. While the characters were not very well developed, the plot of the…

3 stars I liked this book better than the other book I read by Spelling, Mommywood. This book definitely feels more mature. She is less focused on what it is like to be her and seems to take a step back to really examine and analyze her life and her decisions. Still a quick read,…

3 stars I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review. This is a good continuation of the Perfect series. Same interesting storyline and great descriptions as the first novel. I liked the first book a bit better, because this one felt like kind of an in-between book….

As a contributor to this anthology, I feel it would be unfair for me to rate it, however I wanted to share some of my thoughts and opinions of the unique works included in the book. I enjoyed this book. It contains stories and poems that are all very different, but center around the theme…
