Mary’s Recent Updates
"Pros: fascinating ‘first encounter’ novel, very original, realistic portrayal of modern social media phenomenons Cons: the book ends in a cliffhanger for book 2. Also, the narrator was a 23 year old you tube blogger so personally she was hard for me "

| Emma-Jean Lazarus is strange: as in, extraordinary, remarkable, and singular. A 7th-grader who marches to the beat of her own drummer, she also pays attention to all of the other drummers out there. She doesn't always get it right, but her heart is a ...more | |

| Utterly fantastic. A retelling of Snow White, but with a number of elements reminiscent of Fiona of Shrek. I loved Aza, who pretty much went to hell and back. But there were so many great characters, with probably only one fairly weak link: Queen Ivi ...more | |

| Read this in a single day: I just wanted to keep reading. Miri is a role model, not only for the other girls at the princess academy, but for readers generally. She does the right thing no matter what, even when it causes her to be shunned by the oth ...more | |

| I adore all things Heyer, so it's a bit shocking that I think this is only the second time I've read this book. It's Heyer and therefore wonderful. But it had a REALLY lengthy slow start (50 pages!), consisting of talking heads (mostly the hero, Kit, ...more | |

| I found this in a Little Free Library ... and had no idea that I'd stumbled upon what will certainly turn out to be one of the best books I read this year. It's a children's book set in Denmark in 1943. The Danes were the rare people who managed to g ...more | |

| I haven't read an Amanda Quick novel in years, but I stumbled upon this in a Little Free Library, and it was just as wonderful as all the AQ novels I used to read. Love the heroine and her brains and strength. Lots of great twists and turns. Fun read ...more | |

| Steele! Finally! I love that his relationship with Gwendolyn began in the first book, building the anticipation throughout the trilogy. Great, strong, capable, equal couple. Great suspense. I agree with others that I expected and hoped for a differen ...more | |
