DNF @ 5 % (23 out of 509 minutes) So I'm less than 5% in and already I don't want to listen to this scientist character. Seriously, you skip your own father's funeral and just expect your mother to put you up? That's not grieving differently, that's being a self-centred ass. Besides, this inter...
This review can also be found at Carole's Random Life in Books.This was really good! Amazingly good! I am kind of thinking that I am a big dummy for not realizing how good it was when I read the book last year.

I did enjoy that the majority of the story was told a series of in...
Around the Year Reading Challenge Item #26: A Book Everyone is Talking AboutI usually don't explicitly review audiobook performances even though I listen to tons of audiobooks -- if something stands out, I'll mention it, but I focus my reviews on the things I would have noticed regardless of the med...

It was Rose’s eleventh birthday and she had gotten a new bike but she had to wait until her party was over to try it out. As soon as everyone left Rose was off on her bike before it got dark and she had to be home for the night. Rose was not like most eleven year old girls as she had problems making...

What is that statue? ...
