The Lady of the Mine

Cannot finish it. Too heavy and depressing.

Thanksgiving On Thursday
by Mary Pope Osborne

book cover


I read this book with my 4.5 year old. In this story, Jack and Annie go to the first Thanksgiving with the Pilgrims and Wampanoag Native Americans in Plymouth. Squanto was the strongest presence but otherwise I felt this was a lot of unrealized potential.

book cover


Second in the series. A man is poisoned by a cup of coffee he made himself while home alone. His wife was on another island at the time. The man’s girlfriend is the one who finds his body. And the lead detective is falling in love with the new widow. Seems like it’s a case of murder, but the police cannot find proof or even a solid motive. They’ll eventually need the help of the physics professor who has helped on past cases.

Marshmallow & Jordan

It's a cute story about a girl in a wheelchair finding an injured elephant. My favorite part (without spoilers) is when Marshmallow reveals who he really is. They should make a sequel!

The Art Of Vanishing

I really wanted to love this book! It came onto my radar because I follow the author’s nycbookgirl instagram for bookish content. The idea of a love story in an art museum with magical realism sounded like such an amazing premise, and the lovely cover sets a nice tone. The book got off to a solid start but fragments into multiple disparate plot twists (one of which involved the pandemic, which took the book out of the present for me). I also felt like the emotional declarations between the two main characters felt too big and instalove for my taste. Still, someday when I come across Matisse’s The Music Lesson, I will immediately think of this book and all that it strove to achieve. I listened to the dual narration audiobook on Libby.

First loved it when I started the book , then was unsure, then ended really enjoying the journey. Definitely not as predictable as it thought it would be.

Ellen Outside The Lines
by A. J. Sass

book cover


Ellen outside of the lines is a really good book pre-teens and early teenagers. It is about Ellen, a middle school "girl" who is figuring out how to be herself/ who she is. I would rate this book 5/5 stars because it was a really good book with really descriptive but not too descriptive that it would be boring.

This was one of the best books I have ever read. There is 6 stories in one book, so it always keeps you interested! I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a good story!
