"The concept is a great one: a novel based on actual historical incidents of uprising by enslaved people.
That said, I can't help but wonder if many reviewers are responding more to the concept and the importance of the subject matter, than to what th" Read more of this review » |

This was AMAZING. Seriously, everything I could want in a Jewish horror novel about a golem. I need more Jewish horror, please and thank you! From the setting, to the characters, this was a perfect book for me. Set in a Russian schtetl in the early 19 ...more |

| This was a perfect middle-grade story! I love dual timelines, and both stories were engaging. I love stories about resistance, and the way the author wove the two storylines together was perfection. Both protagonists were standouts and even all of th ...more | |

| This gets a 4 star from me. I liked it, and I thought it did a great job of taking us through US History and how women have used their anger to fight. It covered a lot of ground, but I feel like it rushed through the 1800s - 2016 so we could spend mo ...more | |

I was so excited for a new book from Nat Cassidy. He is quickly solidifying himself as a favorite author! I think with this collection, I can say I've read everything he's written, and all of it is the exact kind of weird that I love. The stories in ...more |

This was such a great read! I love stories like this, about the complicated feelings of motherhood and pregnancy, the way girls were forced to be sent away to homes to have their babies, it's a thing that I will nearly always enjoy. I LOVED Baker as a ...more |

This book was captivating, and I couldn't put it down. I think this is a story that will brew in my mind long after I finish reading it. While I've read several books about asylums, this is the first time I've heard of the American Plan implemented af ...more |

“Just because a book is considered “children’s literature”, doesn’t mean it’s childish. Many of my favorite books are written for children! A good story is a good story, and you will find that you enjoy many well-written books just as much (if not more) than your children.”

“Our aim in education is to give a full life. We owe it to them to initiate an immense number of interests. Life should be all living, and not merely a tedious passing of time; not all doing or all feeling or all thinking - the strain would be too great - but, all living; that is to say, we should be in touch wherever we go, whatever we hear, whatever we see, with some manner of vital interest. ~ Charlotte Mason”

“The question is not, — how much does the youth know? When he has finished his education — but how much does he care? And about how many orders of things does he care? In fact, how large is the room in which he finds his feet set? And, therefore, how full is the life he has before him?” ~ Charlotte Mason”
