4.5 stars — I’m not sure what I think about this one. I love it as I’ve loved most books by Ms. Bowen, but I’m left feeling a bit bereft. I think I just went through a lot in this book, and that was hard. Both Rickie and Daphne go through some shit, but especially […]

4 stars — Well this was a fun and quirky retelling…not that, I will admit, I know ANYTHING about the story of Thumbelina. I really should look it up. But regardless of knowing very little of the original story, I loved the story that was told in this book. I kind of loved how both […]
4.5 stars — Wow, I did not expect to love Baby Bayer as much as I did. I mean, I always know Ms. Bowen is going to give me great characters, but I really fell for Anton. And it didn’t hurt that he had the perfect paramour in Sylvie! Sylvie was straightforward and down to […]
4 stars — I was needing something light and easy, like a palate cleanser for a book hangover, and this fit the bill. I haven’t read the rest of the series yet, and I can imagine that if I never did, this story would be unsatisfying…but it sets up that story fairly well in that […]
4.5 stars — I woke up in the middle of the night and could NOT get back to sleep, and so I started this book. And wow. It pulled me right in from the beginning. I feel like this is my most successful book by Ms. Sunday yet. I had so many feelings in my […]
YOUR FRENCH KISSES: 4 stars — This was just cute. I really felt the connection between Marley and Reed, it really was magical and bittersweet. It was the perfect story for novella form, b/c we got a glimpse of the present, then the whole past story, then back to the present. It helped us invest […]
4 stars — Maybe even 4.5, still deciding. Poppy’s poop jokes and that kind of humour felt out of place. Don’t know why. I’m not opposed to that humour, it just didn’t fit for me. I LOVED Poppy’s quirks and generally sunny outlook. She was that strange mix of insecure and confident that I love […]
