I remember watching Sabrina the Teenage Witch on Friday night television as a kid. Sabrina was a delightful teenager, her cat Salem was scheming and snarky and her Aunts were wacky but well intended. In The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, Sabrina is still a teenager but the rest of the story is as dark and different as Riverdale is... Continue Reading →
This book came into my hands highly recommended and I only wish I could, in turn, place it directly into your hands. The characters alone have me cuddling the book tightly in my arms as I type. But the story...this story. Sigh. Well, there is a reason this book won both the Newberry Medal and... Continue Reading →
I love to be obnoxiously in the know regarding little tidbits of information. I'll never be smart enough to win a game of Jeopardy and I frequently miss major news headlines but I delight in sprinkling conversations with little know facts. And, since I also adore Halloween, a book that focuses on old-fashioned superstitions is... Continue Reading →
I cannot imagine that there is a book that I will read this month that terrified me as much as The Handmaid's Tale. Perfectly paced and elegant in the unfolding action, Margaret Atwood's modern classic is precisely the type of book I would store in a locked box. The Handmaid's Tale has a clear before and...

Lewis Barnavelt features in almost a dozen of John Bellairs mystery books and he is, without a doubt, my favorite thing about The House With a Clock in Its Walls. Orphaned at age 10, Lewis must relocate to New Zebedee to live with his Uncle Jonathan. This popular trick of orphaning the main character gives Lewis... Continue Reading →
I have had The Shades of Magic books on my to be read shelf for quite some time now but when City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab crossed my path I couldn't resist reading it. I suppose this is precisely why my to be read shelf continues to grow - I have no self control. But, in... Continue Reading →
Ten Stand-Ups. Nine Murders. One Solution. Frighteningly Good Read #1 has to be Ten Dead Comedians by Fred Van Lente. I picked up this book just recently because the cover art tickled my haunted little heart. I assumed that it was a YA novel but it is most assuredly an adult level murder mystery. Nine stand...

It is almost October!!! I love the fall. I especially love October. The leaves are changing, the weather is cooling, the bugs are dying and reading season is upon us. Truthfully, it is always reading season for me. But for many people summer is apparently a time to go outside and do...outside activities? But now... Continue Reading →
Happy Halloween!!! October is coming to a close with the celebration that is near and dear to my heart - eating all the good candy out of the mix bags before the Trick or Treaters arrive. But, before I send my body into sugar shock I wanted to do one last FGR post. When I was... Continue Reading →
It is October 29th and the gimme-some-candy moment of Trick or Treat is almost upon us. I have been reading so very many books. Sadly, there have been none which I feel confident recommending at this time. Fortunately, I stumbled across this delightful book which we might all need either for a last minute labor...
