Author: Daphne du Maurier
Pages (hardcover): 357
Rating: 4/5

I first heard about this book at a middle school book fair. It sounded intriguing but I couldn’t be bothered to buy it. So it went on my to-read list and sat there, as usual, languishing for several years. Until I finally checked it out of my library as something to read during finals.
Rebecca is...

I’m a nerd, but not in the useful “you’ll all be working for me one day when I invent jet packs” way. I’m a nerd in the “I have very strong opinions about history and literature and will yell them at you if you give me even the slightest opportunity” way. And that one does not pay well.

And next on the list of young adult books that I missed/ things that have been on my reading list forever is An Abundance of Katherines. I became slightly more committed to actually reading this upon finishing The Fault in Our Stars earlier this year and falling into Tumblr-love with John...

This book has been on my to-read list since the 9th grade. True story. For some reason, I’ve just been consistently failing at tracking it down and/or remembering to look for it at all for the past seven or so years. But now I’ve finally gotten around to reading it and it...

Book Review: The Somnambulist

This book was something of a result of my great enjoyment of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell and The Night Circus. It’s the same breed of animal really - a mysterious and incredibly involved narrator, a Victorian world that is just ever so slightly different. The story is something of a...

I’ve been on a bit of a steampunk kick lately. I blame The Parasol Protectorate for getting me addicted to the genre and then setting my standards rather high. But this book kept turning up on lists of good steampunk so I finally broke down and bought it.
The story is set in an alternate version of...
