• America’s First Daughter Review

  After thoroughly enjoying Dray and Kamoie’s book on the Hamiltos, I had to go read their first book together about Jefferson’s eldest daughter, Martha “Patsy’ Jefferson and how she shaped the founding father we know today.

• Book Club: Shutter Island

  Originally this was going to be the book club pick of the month, buuuut we finished it in six days. It was gripping!

• Mysteries and Supernatural series

  Mysteries Codename: Dancer by Amanda Brice What happens when you mix Dance Academy with murder, you get snarky ballerina sleuth Dani Spevak series. I like how it tries to keep it realistic like a modern day Nancy Drew, and Dani’s voice was very fun to read. Good YA mystery series. The Lying Game by Sara…
