I Can Has Books?

Fade to Blue by Sean Beaudoin I can not honestly rate this book. Not at the present time. I just can't. Too much odd for the wee hours of the morning to try and sort my brain around. I decided to read because I couldn't sleep, not realizing I would be finishing it and now I have to think about it. This strange little book. So nope sorry you get no rating from me right now, heck or real review. I, I just can't. View all my reviews

Bossypants by Tina Fey My rating: 4 of 5 stars Source: Library Format:Audiobook Tina Feys "Bossypants" has been my first experience with audiobooks. Well other than the turn the page at the sound of the ding from childhood ones, and I have to say it was an enjoyable experience. It did help that she narrated her own book. It was great to "read" and get things done heck even just walking around. But anyways the book it's self I found to be entertaining and interesting. View all my reviews

The Winter People by Jennifer McMahon My rating: 3 of 5 stars The Winter People is the type of book that grabs your attention from the start. Sadly it isn't one that delivers from cover to cover. I was a tad disappointed with the ending. To me it just fell short. Here we have a story that is going strong and then it took a turn, hit a moment that kind of left me thinking 'really that's how you're going to end it' Felt a little typical I guess. An easy way out or the author just couldn't come up with any other way. So I'm going to give it 3.5 stars. Because the story did hold my attention, I just wish the author had to go in a different direction then she had.

Doomboy by Tony Sandoval My rating: 3 of 5 stars Warning the following review contains spoilers so continue on with caution. I'D a.k.a Doomboy feels like there is a hole in him. His life will never be the same after the death of his girlfriend Annie. So in order to fill it he plays his guitar to the sky for her not realizing it is being picked up on radio air waves and that is music is touching all that can hear it. The story its self is told with the combination of drawing and words. And they flow together great. I found the art work to be a little hard and rough around the edges but I think that was the point. This is a story of a guitar playing, metal loving kid who just got his heart ripped from him and his journey to find away to become whole again. So graphic novel + metal I assumed it would equal awesomesauce but it didn't quite reach my expectations. That is not to say it wasn't good because I did enjoy it. Just not to the full extent as I though I would. ...

The Girl Who Came Back to Life: A Fairytale by Craig Staufenberg My rating: 3 of 5 stars Sophie is a 12 year old girl who lives with her grandmother ever sense the death of her parents. She desperately wants to take the trip up north to the City of the Dead not to send them over to the next life but to take them back to the land of the living. Her grandmother willing to take her along as she goes to send of her husband but only if Sophie can pay for her half of the trip. I really don't know what I think to be honest. I was expecting something TOTALLY different then what I read. And I mean totally. I was expecting something a little more fantasy like I think. Yes it had elements of it, with the City of the Dead. But this book is more about the journey Sophie takes as she learns how to deal with the death of her parents.  It's a story about different ways people cope with loss and finally being able to move on and let them go. See I thought it was going to be a story of a...

Publisher: SJ Parkinson (July 14, 2014) Category: Science Fiction, Thriller Tour Date: October, 2014 Available in: Print & ebook, 600 Pages Rating: 5 of 5 Stars!!!! Oh sweet mother of pearl, what can I say about this book. Intense! Gripping! Action-packed! Twinkle captivated me and held my attention, For book of this size it's hard to imagine that I wished I could read it all in one sitting.  For me to give something 5 stars is something. I'm rather picky when it comes to my star rating and well I found this book to be most deserving. A sure sign that I will love a book is when I think "okay would make a kickass movie, this NEEDS to be a movie." which I can complain that they left such and such a scene out. But that's a different story. Imagine this if you will it's the 4th of July and you go out with your family to watch the fireworks display, a fire works display that is worldwide and record breaking as it's the first of it's kind....
