Love it especially the fact that you wouldn’t know before reading this book in the back

Book published in 2006 and the data was scary then. It is horrifying now. There must be enough smart politicians in this country to see the science and the obvious disaster awaiting the next generation. We all have to work together toward the same solution and not accept the defeatist attitude 'If that country doesn

This is such a good book, especially to get you into those summer vibes. It has a nostalgic feeling for those people who go to sleep-away camps in the summer!

A First Time For Everything

3.5 stars. This was a decent YA read that follows 17-year old Madeline in a sort of coming-of-age romance. Her brother is engaged to a woman who Mads fears may not be the right fit. This book is about her family interactions as well as many firsts- dates, kiss, and more. I liked the premise but felt like this book lost its way slightly in the love triangle aspect with potential suitor Connor and Marco. I appreciate that this book was not totally expected and messy at times in a real life sort of way. I listened to an ARC audiobook on NetGalley.

It was amusing. Some funny stuff, some not-so-funny stuff and some I'd already heard.

I liked it because it teaches you that if you do not try something you will never know

The Compound: A Gma Book Club Pick
by Aisling Rawle

book cover


I read this book because it was a July Indie Next pick and GMA’s book club pick. I listened to the audiobook via Libby and was surprised by the English-accented narration by actress Lucy Boynton (though in retrospect I shouldn’t because of the author’s Irish origin). This book definitely felt like Survivor with more coupling and more cutthroat consequences. I couldn’t look away from the competition of it all and my interest was maintained up until the couple switching. The book had a bit of a lull but finished with what seemed to be an explosion of the seven deadly sins. This was an interesting book that would be good to discuss but also one I’m unlikely to reread.
