Book Review - Scorch Trails

Title: The Scorch Trials Author: James Dashner Series: The Maze Runner (book 2) Publisher: Chicken House Ltd Release Date: 5 Jun. 2014 ISBN: 9781909489417 Synopsis Solving the Maze was supposed to be the end. No more puzzles. And no more running. Thomas was sure that escaping meant he would get his life back. But no one knew what sort of a life they were going back to... Burned and baked, the earth is a wasteland, its people driven mad by an infection known as the Flare. Instead of freedom, Thomas must face another trial. He must cross the Scorch to once again save himself and his friends. My Review I enjoyed Maze Runner overall but had a few reservations, but I was intrigued to find out more so started to read Scorch Trials. The Gladers are out of the maze, but it's not the comforting end they hoped for, instead the experiments continue, but on a much larger and more dangerous scale. Thomas and his friends must once more band together to try and overcome all the trials an...

Hello Again! Plus: New Blog Coming!


Oh, life.

What an interesting, unexpected, sudden thing it is. Both beautiful and jarring, it happens out of nowhere sometimes.

I am sorry I have been so very, very absent. Not only did my time to write shrivel up for a long time, but my reading has been minimal.

How dare I, right? Yet, entering my 30s has been eye-opening. We, as responsible adults with families and friends, have so many more things dividing our time and attention that books and reading do tend to become a casualty. I have come to make peace that I will likely never read quite as much as I once was able to – at least until I retire, that is.

However! I am devoted to getting back in the game a bit again. Currently I am reading THREE books: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone (you aren’t surprised, don’t pretend like you are); Tank Girl One (omg my boyfriend showed me the 90s movie with Lori Petty and I couldn’t NOT seek out the original comics); and Monster Hunter International (an urban fantasy action novel, first of a SUPER LONG series, which I am very entertained by so far.)

So, yeah. My reading habits have drastically changed, but so has life. This is the blog of a teen book reviewer and a bibliophilic 20-something.

But guess what?

Totes gonna start posting reviews again. Obviously of the books I am reading right now, as well as a couple exciting titles that peaked my interest that are not yet released:

Red Sister by Mark Lawrence (mass market paperback version)
and
Evangeline of the Bayou by Jan Eldredge

I cannot promise reviews to be weekly. Life doesn’t really allow for that anymore.

But I will post them as often as I finish books and have a chance to write a review. And it going to be on a NEW blog!!! I am older, life is different and I think that my blog should reflect that – and be more relatable to all the other bibliophiles who have found their reading interrupted by the beauty of life, love and family – we aren’t teenagers reading between homework assignments anymore.

As soon as I get it up, I will cross reference it to the Bibliophile Support Group. Bibliophile Support Group is not going anywhere – it will stay right here and retain the hundreds of reviews and guest posts and interviews it has spotlighted over TEN YEARS of book loving and reviewing.

I will be back with more news, once I have it!!

Becoming a SoleMate

So, I signed up to be a SoleMate for Girls on the Run.  I'm helping the organization raise money to better be able to serve young women as they work on their fitness and life skills.  I'm terrified.  I had to set a goal race to train for, and I picked a race I've done before.  My normal self would be fine with this race, there wouldn't be any issue.  But I'm not normal right now, right now I'm sick.  I have a mass in my pelvis and I am waiting to get surgery.  I hope, once the surgery is done, the pain I am in constantly will be gone and I can train again.  But, what if it isn't?  What if something goes wrong?  What if I'm really sick.  All of that makes me worry.  I hope I'll actually be able to fulfill my goal by finishing the race, but I don't know if I'll be able to.
