Amazing
The Strange Case Of Jane O.
by Karen Thompson Walker
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This book is okay - it's a quick, straightforward read. There were a lot of ways this plot could have gone - down deceptive, psychopathy or metaphysical routes and I was interested to find out what the underlying cause of the main characters symptoms was. When I did found out, I found it unrewarding. I wasn't pleased by how much of the ending is about the doctor and patient's relationship as opposed to the actual plot.
Mr. Nobody

Started off okay. Gets you thinking it might have a mystical touch to it but the author pulled the rug out from under me. Way to convoluted towards the end. Don’t recommend.

Details on NASA and women’s involvement with it was fascinating and enlightening!
Rendezvous With Rama

The Rama ship was the best and most interesting character in the book. I want to learn more about the beings that made the ship and its purpose. Couldn’t care less about the humans in the book.

The Dictionary Of Lost Words

Never gave it a thought about who created a dictionary. Amazing to know the process it took behind each and every word. Good parallel story line about women’s struggles . Enjoyable and educational!
Bury Our Bones In The Midnight Soil
by V. E. Schwab
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Honestly? I expected more. The premise promised atmospheric gothic vibes and some steamy sapphic vampire tension, which technically it delivered—but that’s kind of all it delivered. The plot felt thin, the pacing dragged, and the characters didn’t have much depth beyond brooding and lusting. It leaned so hard into the aesthetic and smut that it forgot to give us a story worth sinking our teeth into. If you’re here purely for the lesbian vampire content, you’ll probably find enough to enjoy. But if you were hoping for Schwab’s usual layered world-building or emotionally complex storytelling? This one’s six feet under.
The Twilight Garden

book cover


And the subtitle is Creating a Garden that Entrances by Day and Comes Alive at Night. I've wanted to create such a garden, a "Moon Garden", for years. I have planted some white blooming flowers and some with variegated foliage to come alive at night but my ideas lack structure and follow through. I found this book helpful with the many perennials, shrubs, and trees listed as possible candidates for my space.

Very different, I really enjoyed it. This was an audio version. Good narrator.
