    Anne of Green Gables: A Graphic Novel Review

    One of the things everyone loves about Anne of Green Gables is how beautifully (and dramatically) Anne narrates the scenery of the nature in Avonlea and her own life. This graphic novel, edited by Kendra Phipps and Erika Kuster and illustrated by Mariah Marsden and Brenna Thrumler brings Anne of Green Gables to life in

    The Windfall: A Spoiler Free Review

    First of all, I’m so proud of this picture so I really need you all to fawn over my photography skills for me (even though it’s not at all technically great). Secondly, this book was fascinating.

    A Book in which Samantha Brinkman Throws Morality and Professional Responsibility Out the Window

    Let me begin by apologizing for the late post and follow up that apology with another apology because I’m about to tell you about a book that the more I think about it the more annoyed I get. You may have noticed that I’ve been studying to take the Bar Exam, which is both why

    July 2017 Wrap Up, pt. 1

    Hi, y’all! I was starting to think about my post recapping what all I’ve read this month and then I realized that I’ve read too many books already (15) and that there was no way anyone would make it through a post with twenty books. So, here are the first ten books I’ve read in
