Book Review: The Power of Others by Michael Bond
I saw the bright yellow copy ofĀ The Power of OthersĀ sitting on a shelf of new releases at theĀ library.

Yesterday, someone asked me if Paper TownsĀ isĀ a love story, and my immediate reaction was, "No, not at all."

Hot Summer Days and Silver Linings
It's been hot this summer, like really hot, like immediately-melt-the-ice-in-your-drink hot. We're talking humid, stifling, 90-degree temperaturesĀ for the last few days. And our air conditioner is not working. (We're in the process of fixing it. It seems like itĀ is only in need of a small repair, notĀ actuallyĀ "broken." At least, we hope.) So, over the last … Continue reading Hot Summer Days and Silver Linings
