Small

This was a fun little thriller to read, pretty fast paced. It had me guessing and second guessing but I did eventually guess the ending. Kind of, not the entire ending, but the main mystery. The main character was pretty dumb, but maybe not as bad as some of the the reviews of her I have seen. It makes me want to read more books by the author, so I guess that is a good thing.

This was a fun book! I love to try and guess the ending, and while i got most of it right, there was one part that surprised me. I love when that happens.

Cute!

The amazing colors o Christmas.

Was really good. Had to read for english and enjoyed reading, one of my favorites:)

This book had me in the first half, but the whole time I wasn't really sure how I felt about the professor role. Do i like her or is it really inappropriate? I'm not sure, but I wish it was more about the main couple without the professor nonsense. I wanted there to be more longing and for it to be more of a slow burn and to delve into the characters more. But it was a fine book and an easy quick read.

Wow! This was a one of a kind "reading" experience! I 100% recommend the audio version of this book. From the snippets of Alicia singing and playing the piano to the short poignant guest speakers at the beginning of a few chapters made the audio version stand out fantastically. Learning about how Alicia came to be in her current stage in life, the way she supports women in all the ways she can, and how she has kept her marriage and family at the forefront of her life (ahead of her career) was amazing to read about. Now, I do not care for books that go into one's political views, and she does quite a bit of that in her book (whether I agree or disagree with political views, I do not look to celebrities to influence me, I will do my own research and come to my own opinions). Though, I can't discount the fact that listening to her tell her life's truth and showcase her artistry made me look past those political moments.

Another young adult genre read. This one was personally driven by my love of poet, Pablo Neruda. I loved the author's interpretation of what his childhood was like (with creative liberties of course). It seems he had a very stereotypical Hispanic upbringing, where he needed to be more of a man's man, and not a writer, dreamer and collector. Seeing how he breaks the mold of what is expected of him and becoming who he is destined to be is heartwarming.

Great premise poorly executed.
