Working From Home

Overall, this was a very unique book that was told in the perfect way. It was a clever way to explore the scarier side of technology, as well as being a hilarious way to tell a story.

All This Over a Fungus

This book was a bit bizarre, but I found it very charming in its uniqueness. It made some bold narrative choices, but it felt confident in itself, and ultimately it paid off.

Overnight Shenanigans

I've discovered that I really enjoy M.L. Rio as an author. I really enjoyed this novella. I thought it was well-done as a short-er story (rather than a full length novel), but honestly? I would've loved this as a full-length novel. It was well-contained for what it was, but it could've easily been expanded upon.

The Purpose

This was a really charming story. It's another story that reminds me of something you'd read in an English class — a little out there and largely contemplative, but full of heart.

Literary Hell

This book was really up my alley. I love philosophical and religious books. While it's not my favorite book ever, it is one that will stay with me for a while. I'd love to talk to everybody about it.

Consider A God Who Loves Us

I've never really read a whole devotional book before, so I don't know how this would function for someone looking specifically for that. As just a book, though, I enjoyed this one. I thought the author provided a refreshing and unapologetic perspective that a lot of modern Christianity is missing.

At Least SOMEONE Can Write A Good Mystery

I'm a huge fan of Stevenson's Ernest Cunningham books, but those are highly stylized, so I was really excited to see how his work held up in a "normal" mystery setting. And I actually really liked this book. The sense of humor and artful reveal of held-back information are familiar enough while still being its own distinct story. It's a good, solid mystery.
