Talia Hibbert is a Modern Romance Queen

March 5, 2023 ~ bookthrasher ~ 2 Comments

"Sexy, Diverse Romance" to be exact I've read two of Talia Hibbert's books so far this year: Act Your Age, Eve Brown is the third in a series about the Brown sisters (I read the first two last year) and The Princess Trap is a standout standalone. Hands down, I recommend Hibbert as a smart … Continue reading Talia Hibbert is a Modern Romance Queen

A Place Called Home: A Memoir

February 15, 2023 ~ bookthrasher ~ 1 Comment

I was listening to NPR's 1A when I heard part of an interview with A Place Called Home author David Ambroz.

He said that once when he … Continue reading A Place Called Home: A Memoir

Let's see what google says: A memoir is a nonfiction narrative in which the author … Continue reading Joy Enough: A Memoir

Remote Control

December 31, 2022October 29, 2023 ~ bookthrasher ~ 2 Comments

My blog's tag line is one book leads to another because it's true for me! Here's how it worked with Remote Control by Nnedi Okorafor. I read about it in a magazine and wrote the title down in my notebook. Months later I finished listening to Matrix by Lauren Groff on audiobook and was so … Continue reading Remote Control

Matrix

December 29, 2022January 6, 2025 ~ bookthrasher ~ 3 Comments

I seem to have established a tradition of reading Lauren Groff late in the year. The last book I read in 2021 was her Fates and Furies and it ended up as the final addition to my best-of-the-year list. And now at the end of 2022, Groff is once again helping me close out my … Continue reading Matrix
