The Writer's LibraryI am a literature geek with a Bachelor's degree in English with a writing concentration. I love to read, and I'm always itching to write, especially creatively. I started "The Writer's Library" in high school, previously working with a Blogger platform before moving over to WordPress. While I mainly post reviews of books, occasionally I will go ahead and review works in other media forms as well, such as music and certain television shows. No matter what I'm doing on here, I love to share with anyone who is willing to listen, and I'm excited to finally be on WordPress!
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! I always think it’s so funny how time flies. I seriously cannot believe it’s actually Thanksgiving and the start of the holidays. Where did the time go? Anyway, besides this day being full of so many things to be thankful for, for me it’s always about giving back as well. In relation to this […]
The Clockwork Dynasty by Daniel H. Wilson My rating: 4 of 5 stars Perhaps even humans serve their own Words, too… “The age of a thing is in the feel of it. Secrets are locked in the fingerprints of cracked porcelain and the bloom of rust on metal. You’ve just got to pick up a […]
I thought I’d already posted this piece I wrote, but I can’t find it, so here it is: So what if the night sky was pierced with explorers searching for a new home and they climbed the twilights of the sky at the fall of dusk and the sky was pierced with their steady breaths […]
So here’s the update on Yearning for YA, as promised. The first genre we covered in my Young Adult Literature course was realistic fiction. While I’m into all types of genres now, realistic fiction is one of the main genres that pulled me into the world of reading growing up. As a kid, I particularly enjoyed Judy […]
Micro God by K. R. Martin My rating: 4 of 5 stars “It is only the damned that need fear me. That which is destroyed cannot be restored. That which is mended cannot be maintained.” I was introduced to K.R. Martin through his popular YouTube show The Book was Better. I thoroughly enjoy Martin’s content […]
So I thought I’d post something else under Yearning for YA. I know I haven’t posted about that in a while, so why not?The YA Literature class I’m in is fascinating. For some reason, I love reading about different genres of writing aimed at young adults. Anyway, I wanted to talk a bit about my favorite […]
The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil GaimanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars Childhood is a wonderful, imaginative, all-too-brief time of life. “Adults follow paths. Children explore. Adults are content to walk the same way, hundreds of times, or thousands; perhaps it never occurs to adults to step off the paths, to […]
The Graveyard Book by Neil GaimanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars So quick story before I dive into this review. I was going into ninth grade, about five years ago now, and this was on my Summer Reading List. I picked it up, but the story wasn’t grabbing me right away (I was very impatient […]
Night by Elie WieselMy rating: 5 of 5 stars A short read…. but who ever said short couldn’t be powerful?My God…. this was on the summer reading list for my senior year of high school and I see why now. Looking back on it, I probably would have related to this more than the book […]
The Crossover by Kwame AlexanderMy rating: 3 of 5 stars So…. I will admit that I have a love/hate relationship with this book. I’ve never been into sports, mainly because most of them I’m not able to play, and I never got into watching them or reading about them. I just couldn’t relate. That said, […]
