Every single time I eat Chinese food, I end up feeling like crap. And yet I still come back for more. Picture the scene: you worked nightshift last night, you've had a total of around three hours sleep and it's now 9pm. It's safe to say you're feeling pretty zoned out, you're hungry, you're exhauste...
This was a well written, interesting story with some suspense, mystery and a little young love. I loved Oscar's quirky humor and that he managed to maintain control over his own life. He helped other kids escape, but it was mostly to benefit and fund his own future escape. That is, until he meets...
Oscar Banks is the perfect boyfriend, the perfect son, and the perfect example of what every child should be like.

When I hear the word dystopia, I always think first of the kind of society described in this book. To me, it's not the obviously broken world that fits the term, but the one that looks perfect, that looks utopian, until you delve below its surface. This is a genuinely creepy book, all the creepier b...
Review in 75 Words or Less: Candor is an eye-opening look at the extremes that parents can go to in order to have the “perfect” child. Does your child have a discipline problem? An unhealthy eating habit? No worries… send them to Candor… everything will be fixed. Bachorz’s spine-tingling debut reall...
Candor was pretty interesting, however, I was disappointed with the ending. The book starts off with Oscar Banks trying to ignore a strange sound. He wants to investigate, but messages in his head tell him to keep studying. We quickly learn that his father founded the town of Candor in Florida an...
