Review: the Morgans and the Jewel of Bar-Ran by K.T. Dady

Disclaimer: book provided by author in exchange for an honest review. Sometimes you just crave a middle grade. Something whimsical, something ridiculous, full of adventure, magic and just drift off in another world that doesn't need you to keep track of some silly politics. Luckily, the author contacted me if I wanted to read her… Continue reading Review: the Morgans and the Jewel of Bar-Ran by K.T. Dady

Review: Stories for Kids who Dare to be Different by Ben Brooks

A little while ago, I read Stories for Boys who Dare to be Different and that one made me emotional. Very emotional. I read a lot of children's history books, I really love the trend of those books like Goodnight Stories for Little Girls, Little Leaders and the like.

How to get into middle grade books

I love middle grade, they are such fun books and they really deserve some more love. A lot of grownups look down on middle grade because it's for children. But there's nothing wrong with being an adult and reading children's books! So if you want to branch out into middle grade, here are some of… Continue reading How to get into middle grade books

Review: City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab

A few years ago I read the Archived by Victoria Schwab and fell in love with her writing. Ok, the story was amazing as well, but her writing really delivered it! I don't think anyone else could've written it as amazingly as her! Her other books didn't speak to me, not because I don't like… Continue reading Review: City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab

Review: Stories for boys who dare to be different by ben brooks

There's a really big trend on children's history books, and especially on women. I absolutely love it and own and have read most of them all ready! But then this book came along. It's about men and written for boys so at first I was skeptical: "Hm, finally there's something for girls and men have… Continue reading Review: Stories for boys who dare to be different by ben brooks

Review: Doctor Proctor’s Fart Powder by Jo Nesbø

How can you read the title of this book and not want to read it? I'm going to be honest, I totally bought Doctor Proctor's Fart Powder for it's title. And the fact that's it written by one of the most famous crime writers, it's hilarious to me. Eleven-year-old Nilly is new to the neighborhood,… Continue reading Review: Doctor Proctor’s Fart Powder by Jo Nesbø

Review: the Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman

It's been a long time since I last read a children's book. I love kid's stories, especially the more creepy books. I read them religiously as a child, and as an adult, I still love it very much! I've never read anything by Neil Gaiman, but I know he's an iconic writer in the realm… Continue reading Review: the Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman
