Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard My rating: 5 of 5 stars The audiobook of this was wonderful. Narrated by Amanda Dolan, I fell into this story easily. Her voices consistent, I cannot imagine anyone else narrating these books. This story seems familiar, and like the somewhat typical story of an undesirable rising to power by
The Short Life of Sparrows by Emm Cole My rating: 5 of 5 stars I did not see this story coming! I figured I’d give it a listen, and find myself entertained by the usual YA type of book. I was so wrong, and so happy to be wrong. The only assumption that can be
Botanicaust by Tam Linsey My rating: 4 of 5 stars This book was very interesting. It had a scifi/post apocalyptic thing going on, which I enjoyed very much. I was happily enthralled with the story until the final 1/4 of the book when it turned into a scary religious debate. This killed the end of
The Magpies by Mark Edwards My rating: 4 of 5 stars A couple buys a flat, meets their neighbors, and hangs with them. Everything seems fine, they all get along… don’they? Apparently not. Read The Magpies and you’ll find out why. I’m not sure how to review this novel. In the end, I liked it.

The alien intelligence that unleashed two horrific assaults on humanity has been destroyed. But before it was brought down in flames, it launched one last payload-a tiny soda-can-sized canister filled with germs engineered to
The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins My rating: 4 of 5 stars Overall, this was a good story. It was a different way to go about introducing a murder mystery, making the reader wonder what was real, or imagined. I was able to figure out who the guilty person was very early in
God Is Dead by Ron Currie Jr. Starting this book for a book club. Not normally something I would choose to read, but we shall see. View all my reviews
I’ve decided to alternate between reading and TV during my downtime. Firefly I own, and haven’t watched it in awhile, so I’m loving that. I am re-reading Guilty Pleasures audible style this time, and am enjoying the simple, sexy read. After creating my own non-profit organization, I’m beat, and need some mindless fun. School is great, but my
