Great book!!!! Love the twists and turns from the author!!!! Definitely reading more from her!!!

Fascinating book that looks into the near future and the "waht-ifs" involving our penitentiary system and offers a self-reflection on our current social needs for constant entertainment, consumerism, and social justice.

Circe by Madeline Miller is a really interesting book about a woman who goes through a lot and learns to become stronger and more independent. It has magic, adventure, and Greek mythology. It’s an easy and enjoyable read.

Was hard to put down. Kept me guessing if the couple would get caught and end up in jail. Also kept me guessing who the black mailers were. Interesting and sad to see how money changes people for the worse.

A wonderful twist at the end that will surprise you.

Fantasy/surreal story that was a bit confusing to fully understand. Quick read but takes more time to decipher what actually happened in the story as there is alot of symbolism. Unique & creative.

Great book! Loved the twist and turns

Incredible true story of a half Japanese/half Korean man who was born in Japan in poverty. He and his family were convinced (with many lies) to move to North Korea to have a better life. They ended living in worse conditions barely or not surviving. The author through crazy traumatic experiences managed to escape North Korea so he could go to Japan to work and send money to his family so they would not starve to death. His journey was unbelievably brave and horribly sad. I respect that he was able to share his experience and the truth of what happens in North Korea. A tragic life story Written beautifully.

A book about how choosing a name can shape a persons life. You follow 3 different timelines where Cora chooses 3 different names for her son. The story highlights the impacts of domestic abuse and the how all 3 names lead to different outcomes for their family.

I truly enjoyed this book as it combined the history of the Grand Canyon, a great adventure story, while being humble and exciting at the same time!
