[Children's Book Review] The Day The Crayons Quit by Drew Daywalt, Illustrated by Oliver Jeffers

The Day The Crayons Quit by Drew Daywalt, Illustrated by Oliver Jeffers is a cute tale about crayons writing letters to their owner, Duncan. Some are tired and overworked, some feel underutilized and ignored, while others can't agree if they are the "real" color of the sun!

[Book Review] Exit West by Mohsin Hamid

Exit West by Mohsin Hamid is a book that I heard so many wonderful things about. When my work book club picked it as our next read, I snagged a copy at my local bookshop, Bookery.

Unfortunately, this was a major miss for me...

[Book Review] The Summer the World Ended by Matthew S. Cox

The Summer the World Ended by Matthew S. Cox... oh my goodness. What a rollercoaster! This is another book where I just want to shout, "GO READ THIS!" This book has heartbreak, quite a bit of terror, and a whole lot of heart.

Full disclosure: I was given a free copy of this book by the author in exchange for an honest review. This did not affect my rating in any way. 

To be honest, I didn't remember anything about the synopsis before I dove into this one. I had read it once, when I agreed to review the book, but by the time I finally got around to reading it, it was like I was totally clueless.

If you enjoy letting a book take you by surprise, I recommend skipping this review and avoiding the synopsis.

What I will tell you without spoiling anything is that this is an intense ride. I almost DNFed it because the first few chapters were so heartbreaking and hit me really hard. I'm so glad I stuck with it though because once the main character leaves her hometown, it's a real page-turner filled with twists and turns!

If you don't mind being a bit spoiled (even with the synopsis), let's dive in!
