The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy #2 The Restaurant at the End of the Universe by Douglas Adams I finally decided to break up my Sanderson streak (The past nine books I read...) and finish up The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series. It's nice to change things up a bit.  The Restuarant at the End…

The Final Empire 

The Final Empire (Mistborn #1) by Brandon Sanderson Words of Radiance left me craving more Sanderson and as being new to reading his works, I still had the Mistborn series to start. Mistborn 1 definitely has a different feel that the Stormlight Archives series. It immediately brings you into the world which feels very "British-esqu"…

Words of Radiance by Brandon Sanderson

Words of Radiance by Brandon Sanderson “Honor is dead. But I'll see what I can do.” This one is long overdue. I have not posted a review in a while and why not come back with a bang and talk about my favorite read of 2016. The Stormlight Archive series was hands down my best…

Book Review: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child 

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child It's been nine years since I've enjoyed any Harry Potter reading. Needless to say, I was glad to be back in the world of magic again. This "book" gave me mixed feelings though. The first half of the story I was a little disappointed. I had hyped this up…

Book Review: The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson

The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson "Life before Death. Strength before Weakness. Journey before Destination." This is the first novel that I have read by Sanderson, and I have to say that I loved it. I know it's not that surprising seeing as how I enjoy everything, but this one was special. The fantasy…

Book Review: The Martian by Andy Weir 

The Martian by Andy Weir This one has been really popular the past couple years since it was released and due to all the hype of the movie. When I saw that they were making the movie I decided it was time to jump on the bandwagon and pick up a copy before the movie…

Book Review: I Am Pilgrim by Terry Hayes

I Am Pilgrim by Terry Hayes I just want to take the time to mention that my reviews don't follow the normal patterns and standards that most people use. I don't like rating a book out of a certain score or using any stars. Honestly, I enjoy most of the books I read. I am…

Book Review: East of Eden

East of Eden by John Steinbeck Many of you have probably already read this one or have at least heard of it. I always see this book referenced in many "What is your favorite book?" discussions. That was enough to sell me on giving it a try. I like to try and change my reading…

Book Review: The Art of War

The Art of War by Sun Tzu I picked up the Barnes and Noble collector's edition of The Art of War free of charge, all thanks to the ebook settlement. I love how the cover and pages are gilded. It makes it very pretty to look at and can sit on a shelf well. You…

Book Review: Shift by Hugh Howey

Shift by Hugh Howey This was my most recent read. I must admit off the bat though, I did enjoy the first collection Wool better. That does not mean that  Shift is bad in any way. Wool just grips you in a way that any good first novel in a series does with it's fantastic world.…
