The Deadlands: Survival
by Skye Melki-Wegner
View in Library Catalog
book cover


The Deadlands: Survival is a book about adventure, heroism, and finding a place to belong. I enjoyed reading this book because I like dinosaurs and it had an interesting concept. The author knows a lot about dinosaurs, a little bit more than I know about dinosaurs. Just the tiniest bit more. The start of the book was so good that I really wanted to keep reading and barely put it down. I would recommend The Deadlands series to people who like dinosaurs and adventure.

Keeper of the Lost Cities is an INCREDIBLE fantasy series. It has a complex plot with many interesting twists and complicated characters. I have reread the series multiple times and it never gets old. I HIGHLY recommend it to anyone that loves fantasy.

A Midsummer's Equation

The death of a hotel guest in a shabby seaside village comes to the attention of big city police when they learn that the dead man was a retired cop. Local police and a university professor also take interest. Was this murder or an accidental death? Is this linked to a past murder? What secrets are being hidden by the innkeeper’s family? This is one in a series of books featuring Japan’s Detective Galileo. Highly enjoyable. Kept me guessing. Will definitely read more from this author.

The Compound: A Gma Book Club Pick

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.
