I love Rainbow Rowell. But I wasn't really convinced I wanted this book. So my friend bought it for me, knowing I'd feel guilty if I didn't at least TRY to read it. I'm 39 pages in & I'm intrigued. It's a little Harry Potter-y, but dare I say better? We'll see...

This was a Christmas gift from my sister. I can't leave the coloring book alone. The illustrations are great. You want to color them over & over. I use art pencils & my fingers are killing me from constantly sharpening the pencils. But it hasn't stopped me yet! GREAT. GIFT.

Okay...I don't think I'm a great reviewer. Mostly because I hate telling the same story over and over, even when I like the story. But here goes:
Imagine Sherlock Holmes is actually some kind of magical stranger-slash-warlock. In Victorian London. And magic shenanigans are happening everywhere. John Watson is the only one who uses deductive reasoning, while Holmes drinks poison & bashes magical baddies. It's delightful & clever, and I loved it.

I got strongarmed into participating in some lame book pyramid scheme thing, but couldn't find the book I was going to force someone else to read...so I bought this book for me instead. Love. It. I can't wait to get back to it!

My father is so cute. He deals with bouts of insomnia, and he combats it with books, for which I'm grateful. Because he always tells me the plot of whatever he read, and Stuart Woods is who he reads right now. I almost want to read this book, Dad described it so well!

While I love a "real" book, being able to read from a tablet or my phone can be a real luxury....starting a new Regency romance today!
