In the House In the Dark Of the Woods by Laird Hunt – A Book Review
When browsing the “new” section at my local library, the cover to In the House In the Dark Of the Woods demanded my attention. Admittedly, I’ve never head of the book nor it’s author–Laird Hunt. Anyway, I read the inside cover, which sounded very interesting, and decided to take a chance on it. In the…

Foe by Iain Reid – A Book Review
I found Foe at the Normal Public Library as I wondered the new books section. The title initially caught my attention, plus the fact that it’s pretty thin. I read the inside of the jacket and was sold. This book absolutely riveted me. I read it in three days, which, for me, is very fast.…

Elevation by Stephen King – A Book Review
I can honestly say that nothing written by Stephen King has ever brought me to tears … until now. Elevation is a mere 146 pages, but don’t let the brevity of the book fool you. King does everything so perfectly in this novella that even one more page would have been unnecessary. Elevation is about…

The Parade by Dave Eggers – A Book Review
A friend recommended The Parade to me. I initially hesitated because Dave Eggers is always a little hit or miss, but when I saw the length of the book, which is very short, I decided it was worth a shot. I flew through this book. Not only is it very short, it’s also written in…

The Primary Reason I Love Once Upon a Time In Hollywood So Much (Warning: Major Spoilers)
I saw Once Upon a Time In Hollywood last Thursday night, and I loved it. In fact, I love it more today than I did last Thursday. Now, I love it for lots of different reasons. Brad Pitt is at his ultimate level of charm, Leonardo DiCaprio puts on perhaps his best performance ever, Margot…
