Warren the 13th and the All-Seeing Eye, Tania del Rio and Will Staehle



I loved this book! I felt like I've always known poor little toad-like Warren and cheered him on all through his troubles and adventure in his family hotel. I can't wait for it to be released so I can get a copy for my grandson's library. =) Release date is set for November 24th- If you have children, I recommend this title. Thanks to Netgalley and Quirk books!

The Girl Who Smiled Beads: A Story of War and What Comes After by Clemantine Wamariya My rating: 4 of 5 stars I was given the opportunity to read an advanced copy of this book by Penguin's First to Read program, and I must say I am grateful. I remember seeing small clips of the war in Rwanda here and there on the news in 1994, and thinking, "Why isn't anyone helping? Why aren't we helping???" All these years later, I still don't understand why the world just sat back and did nothing. I can't imagine what Clemantine and Claire went through to survive- even after reading their story, but I am thankful they are here to tell it. I have hope that one day we will live in a world where we will never have to ask why again, where people will have learned from stories like Clemantine's and Claire's, and Elie's and just make all the hate stop.

Nirvana, J.R. Stewart

This is a title I was invited to read for Netgalley, or maybe I requested it... I don't remember now. But that doesn't matter any way. I like dystopian, and I liked the premise, but this pretty short read was a little hard on my brain. Which may be a good thing. Distinguishing between virtual reality and actual reality muddles my brain and if I were Kenders, I'd be living in a state of constant panic attack. The ending brought me right back into the story though, and got me interested enough in what may happen that I'll be looking for the next book. Nirvana by J.R.

Sadie Sugarspear and the Weeping Willow by Nicole Arlyn My rating: 3 of 5 stars I received this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I really should have finished this book in one day because it really is short, but I had to put it down and come back to it more than once.I almost gave up on it but decided to stick it out and see where it takes me. At first it was a little disjointed and confusing, but dealing with the mind and view of an abused child can't be anything but... I'm still not too sure of how I feel, reading about the rape of a child is never an easy thing, but towards the end when Sadie is in the world at the bottom of the tree, I started to wonder if imagining being in this place was how she disassociated herself from the abuse she is physically enduring at that moment. I feel like I need to know what is happening to her there, as it also doesn't seem to be a nice place for her, so I will be reading whatever comes next, and hoping for a pe...
