As Bright as Heaven

A big screen prospect (10/29/2017)
This is the first book I have read from this author and it was provided to me as an ARC in exchange for an honest opinion.

Love and Other Consolation Prizes: A Novel
by Jamie Ford
No prize on this one (7/16/2017)
I Just finished reading Jamie Ford's Love and Other Consolation Prizes, a novel inspired by a true story about a boy whose life is transformed at Seattle's epic 1909 World's Fair.

The Book of Strange New Things
The Book of Strange New Things: A Novel
by Michel Faber
Strange and Confusing Science Fiction Book (8/22/2014)
I have to say this is my first Science Fiction book where I have to push my way to the end. When I say that there's something really strange about this book, I mean more than that. I had a hard time connecting with any of the characters. Father Peter is extremely hard to …more
