Book Review

Book Review: The Maze Runner by James Dashner

With The Maze Runner on my “to read” list for a while now, the release of the trailer for the upcoming film adaptation was all the push I needed to finally crack the book open.  Turns out I probably could have just waited for the movie.

Book Review: Snowblind by Christopher Golden

Let’s face it: The Fog and The Mist weren’t the best movies (I still need to read Stephen King’s original novel of the latter before writing it off completely), but that’s not to say the premises didn’t have potential.  Go play Alan Wake and you’ll understand.  I was hoping Snowblind would create an experience more […]

Book Review: Doctor Sleep by Stephen King

How the heck do you write a sequel to The Shining?  Is some other family going to be haunted within the walls of a new hotel that was built on the haunted grounds of The Overlook?  Because that’s how horror sequels usually go.

Book Review: Everything is Perfect When You’re A Liar by Kelly Oxford

For a long time, I assumed memoirs meant depressing stories of drug addiction and people lying to Oprah about their lives, which really didn’t sound all that interesting to me.  But then I realized that funny people write them too.

Book Review: The Dinner by Herman Koch

Get ready for The Dinner by Herman Koch, a story that brings whole new meaning to the Friends theme song, “I’ll Be There for You.”

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 […]

Book Review: The Shining by Stephen King

When I was younger I remember being too scared to watch The Shining with my sister and mom thanks to that terrifying cover image of Nicholson bludgeoning his way through the door.

Book Review: In the After by Demitria Lunetta

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 […]

Book Review: Through The Door by Jodi McIsaac

Between all of the stories of the Greek and Norse gods, there’s hardly enough space in my brain for anything else out there when it comes to the old beliefs of cultures.

Book Review: The Long Earth by Terry Pratchett & Stephen Baxter

I have a friend that has been singing the praises of Terry Pratchett for as long as I’ve known her, sharing little moments from the novels that make the stories he has to share sound like fantastical joyrides.  Yet somehow I have put off experiencing what this man has to offer until I saw the […]
