I read this book all by myself. It is about motorcycles. I saw all different kinds of motorcycles and all different parts of motorcycles. Some motorcycles are really fast and other ones aren't as fast.

Sindbad in the Land of Giants was a wonderful book that we read together. It was beautifully illustrated. It tells the tale of a very long journey, part horror and part humor. Sindbad gets lost and lands on the Mountain of Monkeys. It was a fun adventure!

Nice book, action, not a lot of details though. Overall, I thought it was good but not great.

This is very much more of a character-driven story, and a character-exploration story, rather than a page turning, thrilling mystery novel. The main character, Anna, has just recently returned home after suffering a family tragedy and being kicked out by her husband. A detective who specializes in missing children, Anna's hometown has long haunted her as a girl she went to school with went missing in a still-unsolved case. Just as she returns, as it happens, another girl has gone missing - and Anna very quickly finds herself involved in solving the case. As she does so, her past trauma comes to light and becomes a force she will need to deal with if she is going to find Cameron and return to her family. I didn't really find this to be a page turner. In fact, it took me a while to get past the first section, because it's really just setting the stage and nothing much happens. I finally sat down and just plowed through the book in a day. It wasn't bad, but everything felt kind of flat and I didn't really care about Anna as a character. Even as she cried about the unknown trauma she had experienced, I never felt myself dying to know what had happened to her that led to her husband kicking her out. I just didn't care. I also don't love using real-life cases in a fictional story. It just felt exploitive and gross to me. Polly was a real girl who underwent something terrible, as did her family, and using it as some form of entertainment just doesn't sit right with me. Especially when you're going to make it a big piece of your plot, with your character investigating her bedroom and listening to a psychic talk about her.

A more somber, but beautifully executed story of Juliet Browning and her romantic relationship while studying art in Venice during the Second World War. Some heartbreak, some inspiration, woven between 1938 and 2011. Caroline Grant, the grand niece of ‘Lettie’ embarks on a trip to solve the mystery of a sketchbook. Different from Bowen’s quirky and lighthearted Georgie romps.
