Walden
by Henry D Thoreau
View in Library Catalog
book cover


As challenging as it was to read, I enjoyed it. More, because I feel accomplished after completing it. After all it is a classic. It gives good insight to the man/ the author. He is simple but intelligent. He is a loner, for the most part, self reliant, a conservationist. He would rather live simply, be poor not rich monetarily. He is observant of nature and appreciative of it.

This is my second book in the Plum Cove series and the author does a great job of deepening the plot and relationships. A perfect summer novel.

This was a Good listen. I enjoyed all three of the female narrators. And I had some interesting twists and turns. I will definitely give this author another shot.

I loved this book and would recommend reading. The ending is not what I expected. I am going to read more of her books.

Last Target

As usual, Roberts does family and friends well. I enjoyed the couples and relationships, but the plot was more JD Robb than I'd prefer with the level of violence.
Just Ask Elsie

This is a very cute, quick read that doesn't shy away from difficult themes about changing bodies or challenges queer people face in their lives, both internally and externally. I wasn't sure where the book was going to go, but it ended up being more about right to free speech and sex education than I was expecting, which worked in its favor. Definitely a good, maybe even important read for kids in that tween age range, as it approaches both puberty and standing up for one's rights (through the lens of tween perspective) in a respectful, but still entertaining manner.
Deer Run Home

I think the author chose an important story to tell, and she did it in a gentle and aesthetic manner. It’s good to know ahead of time the content warning. I didn’t, and I’m a highly sensitive reader, so I have mixed feelings about the book. I did learn more about deaf culture, so I appreciate that.
The Once and Future Queen

A fun and engaging re-imagining of Arthurian legend, I found myself quite enjoying this book. I especially found Vera's perspective and constant struggle with her sense of inadequacy to be well-balanced with her drive and strength of personality. She's undoubtedly a fish out of water in this story, and is constantly learning/receiving help from others, but she has a strong voice and refuses to be passive in her decision-making. This is highlighted by her varied and very distinct dynamics with the supporting cast. If there was one thing I'd have liked to see more, it would have been the inclusion of more female characters, because, despite how enjoyable Vera as a character is to read, I feel like the story and world would benefit from giving her more women to interact with and talk to. I'll still be checking out the followup when it comes out, and hope we get more women in that one.
Wild Dark Shore

Part futuristic dystopian story, part literary suspense, this story shifts points of view giving the reader a fully realized story of people at the edge of a crumbling world.
