Fascinating information regarding Apollo 11 Command Module Pilot Michael Collins

Very thin plot line. Author seemed to be more concerned about the weather conditions as characters went from one location to another

This was an excellent ending to a series I've been reading for 8 years! I loved being reunited with these characters one last time and everyone's story ended in the way I thought it should have. I cried, it was adventurous and bizarre, and 830 pages flew by!

Thorough aspects of natural way to live along with TCM.

Wonderful book on natural home, beautiful photos, and well designed.

Great story . Love how the author goes between timelines. The story is centered around haven and her quest to continue the searcher dad started. The story brings us between the 1800’s with Mari and Holmes story as well as Haven and Enzo. Really enjoyed .

Amazing story, great set of new characters . Still crazy as ever. Received an ARC copy from the publisher. Story focuses on 2 missing teen girls and the search and secrets in finding them. In usual Karin fashion she had enough twists and turns to give u whiplash. Great story can’t wait for the new series

I had to read this after reading we were liars and felt like it was okay. I thought it followed the same type of trajectory and had many parallels to we were liars, just with the previous generation of Sinclairs. I think I liked Carrie’s POV better than the narration of we were liars, although both characters had their flaws and issues.

Atwood writes beautifully with very specific attention to the littlest of details in her character. She does not let the reader forget the intricacies of the narrator, which is so essential in reminding us of her humanity in a world where she is treated as less than human. The flow of the book might seem unnatural since its not linear, but the flashbacks to Offred's time before she was taken as a handmaid are interspersed throughout the novel in a way that allows you as the reader to understand her losing her grip on reality and the person she once was. We can better understand her struggle of maintaining the woman she once was in this way. Overall the language of the book was engaging and gorgeous in its description and attention to narrative feeling.

I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. I am admittedly not usually the reader who loves fantasy but I knew from reviews that I wanted to read When the Tides Held the Moon by Venessa Vida Kelley. The cover is eye-catching with the graphic of Benny and the merman. I loved the oceanic colors used for it. Benny is on his own in life after losing his aunt. He has come to America and is working as a blacksmith. Benny has difficulties with his breathing and being in an environment such as a metal shop really affects his health. Benny is a talented blacksmith and his art is noticed by the owner of one of the local amusement parks - Luna Park in Coney Island. Benny is hired to build a large tank for a new exhibit and isn't told of all the details. Benny finds himself becoming attached to the new exhibit - a real merman from the ocean. I loved Benny's compassion and moral struggles within himself and with the merman. The other characters in the book that make up the menagerie were also such a great group of characters to read about. My two favorite parts in this book were the illustrations and the storyline. The illustrations added to the story and worked together with the cover. I usually don't read much fantasy but this was such a good story. (from my Goodreads review)
