A Little Ray of Sunshine

Welp Kristan Higgins did it again, she made me cry, and I’m pretty upset by it. People told me this one would be lighter, so I read it on my flight up to New York last week. It’s a good thing I had a window seat and nobody next to be because I was bawling…

Fourth Wing

Honestly this book wasn’t even on my radar until I started seeing it everywhere on Instagram. I generally wait until the hype of books calms down, but I couldn’t help myself in this case. Let me tell you, it was totally worth rearranging my reading plan and THE HYPE IS REAL! But beware, book 2…

Love, Theoretically

I love a book, especially romances that focus on women in STEM. I’ve spent my entire career in the Technology arena, and I generally am the only female on my teams. I’ve been lucky to have always worked with a great group of engineers who treat me as an equal, but I know this isn’t…

The Secret Book of Flora Lea

I’ve been on an unintentional historical fiction hiatus lately but decided to dive back into it once I read the synopsis of Patii Callahan Henry’s upcoming release The Secret Book of Flora Lea. I’m so glad I decided to read this book because while it’s not actually a magical realism or fantasy story, it was pure…

The Night Flowers

In 1983, 3 bodies were discovered in barrels by two hikers in New Mexico’s Gila National Forest. Having been there a while, the police were never able to identify who the women and 2 children were.
