A Book That Made You Cry

  You don’t even understand how much I love this book. It brought me out of my reading slump and I finished most of it in one sitting. For the first time this year, I postponed dinner to read a book. This book is amazing. “The Humans” was written by Matt Haig and published in […]

A Book With A One-Word Title

This is a comic book series that was published by DC Comics from 1986-87, and while I normally prefer Marvel, I’m going to say that this was pretty good. I mean, would I have read this without anybody suggesting it to me? Probably not, because I don’t read that many comic books to begin with. […]

It was more like eerie fascination. The whole time I was reading the book, the only thing going through my head was, “Oh gods that’s creepy. And […]

A Book You Can Finish In A Day

  So. Yes. The first book I read for this challenge was “The Strange Library” by Haruki Murakami. And let me tell you, it was awesome. It’s an illustrated children’s novella, and since I’m like three years old at heart, I really enjoyed it. But no seriously – if you read books of the fantasy […]
