    I read Wicked years ago and really liked it. I'm curious what you think of Elphie. I'm on the fence if I should try it since I read something else by Gregory Maguire afterwards, and I had to dnf, so now I'm unsure, lol.

      Gregory Maguire is a must have author for me. I've liked more of his books than I disliked. I enjoyed Elphie, it was great to see the character evoluion of the family.
      my full review for it can be found here:

    I love the color red! It's so vibrant and eye-catching, perfect for book covers. Great idea for a list!

    Happy TTT (on a Wednesday)!

    I love this idea! Red is one of my favorite colors and all the covers look amazing. I've read A Curse So Dark and Lonely and loved it. Sadly, I haven't managed to read the second book yet, but the red cover always gets my attention :) Thanks for visiting my blog earlier in the week!

You'd have a swimming buddy for life, and someone to feed your enemies to...) Do you have any favorite animal characters?

The Sunday Post

   Happy Sunday! Welcome to my Sunday Post, a weekly blog news meme hosted by  caffeinatedbookreviewer . My blog is on the small side, so I decided I'll only be posting the first Sunday of each month and I hope you'll join me. The month of February has been eventful. I've had some wild weather in my neck of the woods: real feel listed as 11 degrees one day, switching to 60s and endless rain, and then to dry windstorms that brought trees down. I successfully managed not to freeze, drown, or fly. I became an aunt to a beautiful niece, who just narrowly escaped being a leap year baby, and I'm pretty excited about her arrival. My Kindle Touch was finally lost to the ravages of time but was replaced swiftly with a Kindle Paperwhite. I also reviewed the following stories: Lethal White by Robet Galbraith Training Strategies for Dressage Riders by Charles de Kunffy What Feasts at Night by T.Kingfisher (just released!) Troubled Blood by Robert Galbraith I originally planned to ...

Top Ten Books I Was Assigned to Read in School

Today's Top Ten Tuesday, hosted by ThatArtsyReaderGirl , is all about Books I Was Assigned to Read in School. I've been a lifelong avid reader, but I was always that student that once a story was assigned, I was unlikely to want to read it. Like accidental reverse psychology, I can count on one hand the number of books assigned that I actually liked... three of which made today's list. 1. Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck - I've read 2 Steinbeck novels, this one, and The Red Pony  and I hated them both. I don't get the fascination with him. 2. Animal Farm by George Orwell - This is about communist pigs, if you like that sort of thing which I didn't. 3. The Outsiders by SE Hinton - I know a lot of people absolutely love this book, I'm just not one of them. 4. The Yearling by Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings - I was too young to be reading a story this upsetting. 5. Where the Red Fern Grows by Wilson Rawls - This was also upsetting. 6. The Eye in the Door by Pat ...
