• Book Highlight: Brown Girl Dreaming

  Just as I never read the children classic author, Ronald Dahl, I hadn’t gotten to Jacqueline Woodson. Until now! Her memoir mixes prose and poetry as she chronicles her childhood in five parts: Part 1, i am born which covers her childhood in Ohio and her parents’ separation; Part 2, the stories of south carolina…

• An Illustrated History of Notable Shadowhunters & Denizens of Downworld

  This illustrated history promises to give you a behind the scenes peek into your favorite Shadowhunter and Downworlder characters from Clare’s hit fantasy series. Which it somewhat succeeds. I’ll admit the amazon summary may have oversold it as I was eagerly flying through the pages to see a complete Shadowhunter family tree as I am…

• Art Books

  Aren’t art books great. You get more insight to some of your favorite shows or movies, see background art in full lush color, creator commentary, insight to production ideas and unseen art. It’s amazing to see how much thought and detail that goes into production. Obviously art books are objective since they usually cater to…

• Golden Age Biographies

  So I already wrote a post about how I enjoy TCM books (and the channel in general) so of course, it inspired me to read biographies of some of Hollywood’s brightest stars. No reviews here since it’s been a while since I read them but here are some good biographies to begin with that give…

• Thoughts on new American Girl cover

  So American Girl is releasing a new historical girl from the 1920s! Woo, I love that mainly because I love the 20s so it’ll be good for kids to have a new, admittedly more entertaining way to learn about the Harlem Renissance rather than just school books and lectures. However, I do have one cavet…
