I've been kinda in a reading slump, but I got back into it during Christmas break. Here are my latest reads and all of them are fantastic.
 | I loved this book. I've been looking for something a little more diverse lately and this was perfect. Based in Brooklyn, this book follows Sierra Santiago whose gradfather has become almost speechless after a stroke. Soon Sierra finds out her grandfather played a huge part in a super natural battle. She discovers she can save everyone from these undead creatures by creating murals that channel spirits. The book starts a bit slow, but once you get into it, you will want to keep turning the page tp find out what happens next. As I read it, all I could was what is going on. This is crazy. If you loved Ms. Peregrine or the Mara Dyer series, this book should be next on your list. |
The Bell Jar has become part of my top 5 favorite books. The main character, Esther, is witty and sarcastic. I love her personality. This book follows her struggle with depression. As someone who struggles with mental illness, so many of the passages hit home. Thought this book is dark at times, I truly loved it. In fact, I can't stop talking about it. If you loved It's KInda a Funny Story or Eleanor and Park, I highly suggest trying this classic.
| Okay, I know what you're thinking. A book about lighthouse, really Ms. Ford? I enjoyed this book a lot. Non-fiction isn't usually my jam, but this one peaked my interest. I am obsessed with lighthouses. There is something mystreious and romantic about them. Brilliant Beacons intertwines the history of the lighthouse with US history. The stories in here are like listening to old mariners and keepers tell the truth about the lighthouses. I highly suggest tis one. |  |
