Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
I’ve just had one of those for God’s sake, kill me and get it over with moments. Maybe there’s a word to describe that feeling, and since I’m fortunate enough not to be a grade 5 student in California, perhaps I’ll try to look that word up when I’m done here. The Menifee Union school …

When I was going to write this post, it was going to be a seething post about how horrible a book this was. Now, I’m a wee bit conflicted about how I feel. In fact, I pretty much take everything back. Not all, but a lot. The book was called Living Dead Girl by Elizabeth …

Somebody is laughing while Barnes and Noble are crying. they walked into a Barnes and Noble store, saw a big display in the front window full of books by or about President Obama and thought a book about monkeys should be squished in among them. Yup, you guessed what happened. The angry emails came in …
This is probably going to be the most boring post ever. I hope it helps someone. Last year, I came home early for Christmas. I had hardly any of my family’s gifts bought, and frankly didn’t have a flaming clue what to get anyone. Mom mentioned to me that she had every book in the …
