Supergirl at Super Hero High by Lisa Yee – A Soaring Review

Supergirl at Super Hero High by Lisa Yee – A Soaring Review

This book is SO much fun, and it’s perfect for MG and early YA readers. My daughter and I both read this one and both thoroughly enjoyed it. It provides lots of super hero action but also has a sweet message about believing in yourself. I highly recommend this for MG readers! This is the second book in the DC Super Hero Girls Series, but it can definitely be read alone (neither my daughter nor I […]

How to Keep Rolling After a Fall by Karole Cozzo – Review & Giveaway

How to Keep Rolling After a Fall by Karole Cozzo – Review & Giveaway

This book was so much more than I expected it to be. At its heart, this is a story of redemption and forgiveness and finding your way past your worst choices. And, let’s face it, we all have choices we regret – it’s how we deal with them that matters. The synopsis does a great job of describing the plot, so I’ll jump right into my review. What Fed My Addiction: All the feels. This book […]

Top Ten Books that Took Me Abroad

Top Ten Books that Took Me Abroad

Today’s Top Ten Tuesday is: Top Ten Books with Settings Outside the U.S. This is such a great topic! I’m always hunting for books that expand my horizons! I decided to stick with books I’ve read in 2016 to simplify things a little (mostly for myself). (Links go to my review, unless I haven’t written one yet – in that case, links are to Goodreads) 1. The Wrath and the Dawn by Renee Ahdieh This historical fantasy series takes place in Arabia […]

Audiobook Acceleration – Let’s Discuss! (And a Poll!)

Audiobook Acceleration – Let’s Discuss! (And a Poll!)

I’ve been listening to audiobooks a lot lately. They’re great for long drives (or even short ones – I listen even if I’m only in the car for five minutes!) and doing random chores around the house. (Who knew folding laundry could be so exciting?) Between SYNC‘s free summer audiobook program, the library, and Audiobook Boom (a reviewing site for audiobooks), I’ve been listening more than ever before! Of course, listening to an audiobook isn’t […]
