I just had my birthday this past February 20th and it’s always a big blessing to see another year and spend it with people I love and care about. But one thing I wanted most out of all my gifts (which I enjoyed just as well) we’re more books. So I did a quick video of a birthday book haul of all the books I got and sharing why I chose them. I’m excited to be getting to them very soon. And having these new books have definitely put me into a big reading mood. Hope you enjoy the video let me know if you are interested in any of the books I mentioned or if you read of these.

Sheets By Brenna Thummler | Book Review

Synopsis:

Marjorie Glatt feels like a ghost. A practical thirteen year old in charge of the family laundry business, her daily routine features unforgiving customers, unbearable P.E. classes, and the fastidious Mr. Saubertuck who is committed to destroying everything she’s worked for.
Wendell is a ghost. A boy who lost his life much too young, his daily routine features ineffective death therapy, a sheet-dependent identity, and a dangerous need to seek purpose in the forbidden human world.
When their worlds collide, Marjorie is confronted by unexplainable disasters as Wendell transforms Glatt’s Laundry into his midnight playground, appearing as a mere sheet during the day. While Wendell attempts to create a new afterlife for himself, he unknowingly sabotages the life that Marjorie is struggling to maintain.

Book Review:

Sheets tells the story of a girl, Marjorie who works at her family’s laundry mat and only wants to feel invisible. Her mom died not long ago and her dad is basically deeply depressed and won’t leave his room.


Marjorie just wants to get though her school days and work and come home. That is until she meets Wendell the ghost. Marjorie and Wendell eventually end up having a good friendship. What got on my nerves was this big belly Mr. Saubertuck trying his damn best to take Marjorie’s family business away and he felt like he could and say whatever he wanted to get his way.


In the end I enjoyed this story. The art work was nice to look at. I felt it was different and wasn’t your typical drawings but still brought the story to life.

Twilight by Stephenie Meyer | Book Review

Twilight (Twilight, #1)Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was an interesting re read of Twilight. I know a lot of people can’t stand this book but I actually enjoyed re reading it for the second time. I read this for the first time over 10 years ago and loved it then. This time I’m listening to all the books on audio to get a different experience. 

Yes Bella Swan is very awkward but in a way I feel like I know why. I do feel that Bella and Edward’s relationship was a little insta lovey at first. But I dont care I really enjoyed reading this again. As I was reading this all I saw were clips from the movie. Back in the day I was Team Edward I dont know who’s side I’ll be on when I read Midnight Sun.

Reading this series again reminded me that you dont always have to have the superb writing in a book especially if its centered around romance. This is a young adult paranormal romance series that people shouldn’t take so serious it’s a fun, mindless read.

Being back in Folks Washington is enjoyable and that’s all I’m taking away from this experience the second time, an enjoyable fun read.

The audiobook was decent I just wish the narrator changed her voice a little for the different characters. But other than that I enjoyed it. Fun, quick read and I’m looking forward to reading the second book soon.
