I had not read any of the books in the series until the Twilight movie became available for ownership and …

In Cold Blood- By Truman Capote

Parts of this book I enjoyed tons, some parts of the book seemed to linger on and be a bit boring. Overall I think Truman Capote did a magnificent job writing this book- He risked so much to write this book, his life never being the same after. Having …

Children’s Book: Trashy Town by Andrea Zimmerman

Gossip Girl by Cecily von Ziegesar

Admittedly, I was skeptical when all of the teenage girl population in my high school became stuck on the Gossip Girl phenomenon. I mean, they were actually reading. Of their own accord. As jaded as I am about popular culture after thoroughly hating Twilight, I decided to pick up …

Skipping Christmas novel by John Grisham

Skipping Christmas clearly deviates from the usual John Grisham’s novels with all the legal finesse, technical jargon and courtroom battles. It is a simpler story, easier to read, though I find it a bit ridiculous, and downright silly. After all, what’s so wrong about not doing …

An English Psychic In Hollywood by Lucinda Clare

Half Past Dead by Zoe Archer and Bianca D’Arc book

The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls

The Recipe Writers Handbook by Barbara Gibbs Ostmann Book

The Recipe Writer’s Handbook is hands down the BEST useful information about writing recipes I’ve come across. I’ve read plenty of articles from professional chefs and paid recipe writers, and none of them has broken down the mechanics and pure enjoyment of writing recipes the way Barbara Ostmann has.
When …

Robb Report November 2008 Issue

Shivers: Four Scares in One Volume One

Shivers was a series of books written by the writer M.D. Spencer. In fact, I think they came out around the same time that the other series of books, Goosebumps, which were written by the writer R.L. Stine came out in the nineties. When I read a few books …

A Writer’s Grammar by C. Beth Burch
