How I Review Books
Many book reviewers use the five-star system to quickly let their viewers and readers decide whether a book is worth their time. However, I find it difficult to evaluate a book in numbers and fractions. It feels too cold and distant. There are books I dislike that are deemed classics (looking at you, Catcher in the Rye), and books that I love that aren’t well-written or consistent (the Harry Potter series). This is because stories aren’t written to be so easily measured, and good taste, no matter what some people say, is never objective.

Gemma Doyle is back in book number seven of Vicki Delany’s A Sherlock Holmes Bookshop Mystery series.

The Baby-Sitters Club
The tradition of reading a book or a story to a child as a means to help them sleep and to promote a love for books is an American tradition that my Haitian immigrant family never adopted. That’s not to say reading and education weren’t heavily promoted throughout my grade school and high school years. It absolutely was. My mother constantly encouraged me to read, but her being a Haitian immigrant, she had a so-so grasp on the English language at best and speaking it was enough of a task without also having to read it aloud to her child.

Obscure Non-Spoiler Reviews "Agincourt"
Today we’re talking about Agincourt, a historical fiction by Bernard Cornwell, where people kill each other for no better reason than their collective belief that they think God wants them to do so. Thankfully, that shit doesn’t happen anymore today. It was an actual battle you can learn about in English history. In fact, it’s the big battle Henry the Fifth is often remembered for by not just the bard himself, but by anyone who calls themselves an Anglophile—which is a creepy word. I think because it has “phile” in it, and pedophile has really ruined that suffix for everything else.
