Book Club in Session: The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman
Lauren: Between the genres of comic books and novels I’m most drawn to reading, it’s sometimes shocking to remember that not all books are a part of a series with hundreds and hundreds of pages building on the work that came before. It can become overwhelming, which is when it becomes pertinent to my psyche […]

Heather and I made the mistake of starting the Divergent series when only two of the three books in the trilogy had been released, so it’s safe to say anticipation to read how the trilogy would end was running high.

Remember how in 1875 the U.S. government traded 1000 white women to the Cheyenne Indian Tribe in exchange for 1000 horses to help the Cheyenne learn how to acclimate to the White man’s world? No? That’s because it didn’t happen. But what if it did?

The possibility of aliens or zombies wiping out humanity is a terrifying thought that has plagued my mind for as long as I can remember (I have a healthy imagination, though there are truth to the potential of each possibility in a form). Now thanks to In The After, I get to blend the two […]
