    3. The Constant Princess by Philippa Gregory

      ————————————————————————————————————————————————————— Plot This novel gripped me quite quickly, as I read about the fictitious beginning of one of the royals I have always been most intrigued about. The unraveling of the beginning of Catalina’s life was quite well written, and her love for Arthur definitely believable. Characters I read this novel for Katherine/Catalina of… Continue reading

    2. The Tesla Legacy by Rebecca Cantrell

    ————————————————————————————————————————————————————— Plot This is a very natural continuation to the previous novel in the series, with Joe trying to cope even further with the revelation of why he is agoraphobic, and new revelations about his familial connections. The discovery of a dangerous device, created by none other than Nikola Tesla himself really does drive this… Continue reading

    1. The World Beneath by Rebecca Cantrell

    ————————————————————————————————————————————————————— Rebecca Cantrell is easily one of my favourite authors, as the way she manages to weave a tale together is truly inspired. Plot This book, and the story within it had me rapidly turning the digital pages, eager to find out what happened. Joe Tesla’s life within the tunnels is definitely a hard one,… Continue reading

    2016

    I’ve fallen down on the job when it comes to updating this in 2015 so I am going to try and do a better job with that, and will only really be taking on a couple of reading challenges at a time. So I’ve set my GoodReads goal to 85 for this year, since I… Continue reading

    On Loving Anne

    I’ve recently, not for the first time, found myself reading Anne of Green Gables, and Anne of Avonlea, and as I’ve digested the words and experiences of dear Anne (spelt with an ‘e’) I’ve pondered what it is about Anne that keeps me coming back to her. I think perhaps, it is because Anne is… Continue reading

    Book Shelf Trauma

    I am sitting here, on my couch, staring at my shelves, split half and half, unread, arranged by genre and author last name, and read, again split by genre and author last name. One thought keeps going through my head, around and around. What to read? What to read? What do you want to read?… Continue reading

    Hard to Read

    17 books in January, 8 in February, 10 in March, 6 in April. I started off this year strong, and now I’ve hit a slump. It’s not that I don’t want to read, I absolutely do, but when I look at my shelves, most of which contain my TBR pile I’m downright overwhelmed. I’m sure… Continue reading

    2 for the Price of 1: The Golden Compass and Reality Boy

    This is a book I’d wanted to read for quite some time, since having seen the movie and learning about the controversy. I picked it up quite some time ago at a library sale, and regret not having read it before this. Lyra is a very precocious, often selfish little girl, but the character progression… Continue reading

    Veronica Mars is still smarter than me…

    When Veronica Mars came onto the screen originally in 2004 I was 16 years old, and turned 17 during the duration of the first season. We were then, roughly the same age which means when the show was cancelled, during both hers and my first year of college I was crushed. Of course we had… Continue reading
