Yeah baby – up to three reviews! I’m reviewing this book the same day I finished reading it, which means that Satan is skating to work. I was in the library with my four year old and told her to pick a book for me to read. She pointed out this one: I like super heroes, so I went with it. It took me a month to start reading it because anxiety sucks a fat one but once I did start I was pleasantly […]
So Excellent! – CBR 8 – Review #2
This review covers three romance novellas that read as one larger story – So Sweet, So Good, & So For Real.

Why did it win?” I wonder if I am up for the challenge, if I can do the work justice as a reader. I didn’t know what I was getting into.The beginning of Dunces is rollicking and […]
Lego for Everyone!!!
Note: This review was written about the previous edition of the book. The Amazon link is to the September 2014 edition. There are a lot of books on parenting out there. As a first time parent, I wanted to do the best job I could without getting caught up in the feeling of failing because I wasn’t doing it right according to Sears or Spock or whoever. I read technical books on how often babies needed to eat and when I might need to call […]
