1 star I saw the movie version of this a while ago and while I wasn’t a huge fan of it, I’ve been wanting to give the book a try. I found a copy for a few bucks in the clearance section and read most of it in a day. I can’t stand Greg Heffley….

4 stars Overall, an interesting book. It’s good to know going in that McCarthy does not use quotations in this book. If you go in without knowing that, you might feel some resentment toward him. For the most part, the reader knows what’s going on despite the lack of proper grammar. There were a few…

3 stars I received a copy of this book through LibraryThing in exchange for an honest review. Overall, I liked the book. It had some useful advice. The writing was pretty simplistic and easy to follow. There were a decent amount of typos in the text, but it is easy to know what the author…

4 stars I’ve heard of this book and seen it around, but didn’t really think I’d get much out of it. Then I found a copy in the Lending Library and figured I’d see what all the hype was about. It was worth it. This is a very short, simple book. I was expecting a…

4 stars This was a good book. It’s not like there was anything necessarily bad about it. Cool story and a creative way of approaching the subject of loss and grief. I think my expectations were too high for it though. I had heard really great things about it and wanted to read it before…

There are stories with a variety of Disney Pixar characters (Monsters, Inc., A Bug’s Life, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Wall-E, Up) and two stories each for some of the more popular ones (Cars, Toy Story, Finding Nemo). The stories were well-done and I loved the illustrations. I especially…

4 stars I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. This was a very fun book to read. I really enjoyed the story and found Jackie’s character easy to relate to. There is a lot of build up in the beginning, but it is so well-told that it is still interesting…

4 stars  A very fun and entertaining book. Since this book was originally written in the 1930s, it has the distinct style of old children’s books. It is very unrealistic and silly, but still a very good read. I really enjoyed the ridiculous plot and funny situations that the Popper family and the penguins find…

4 stars What a wonderful adventure! I loved this book. It was well-written and engaging. I especially liked all of the puns and various word-related humor. I can definitely see a parent reading this to a child and both of them enjoying it immensely. Great plot. And I loved Milo’s character. You can definitely see…
