The Vanishing Stair by Maureen Johnson *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I loved The Vanishing Staircase by Maureen Johnson so much! It had a typical Maureen Johnson cliffhanger which I don’t love but I’m beginning to question that stance. Not much time has passed between the two books. Stevie ends up back at Ellingham Academy but she made a deal with the devil to get…

Rayne & Delilah’s Midnite Matinee by Jeff Zentner *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I read Rayne & Delilah’s Midnite Matinee by Jeff Zentner because Zentner is an auto-read author for me. I read The Serpent King because it had come in my first ever Owlcrate box. After that I was hooked. Goodbye Days sealed the deal. Rayne & Delilah’s Midnite Matinee is the first novel that I…

Last Kiss of Summer by Marina Adair *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I think that I read Last Kiss of Summer by Marina Adair at just the right time. I didn’t realize how much I needed a romance read until I sunk into this book. Kennedy is a bit of a pathetic character. Absolutely nothing has gone right in her life. Her saving grace is her…

7/19 Nostalgia Review Round Up

Starry Eyes by Jenn Bennett *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] Starry Eyes by Jenn Bennett is my first Jenn Bennett novel. I really enjoyed it. From start to finish it was *just* light enough that I could devour it but still dealt with some pretty serious stuff. I could really relate to Zori and her lists and schedules. I don’t think I’ll ever be…

ARC Review: Forgotten Bones by Vivian Barz *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] Once I heard the words “cold case” when reading the pitch for Forgotten Bones by Vivian Barz I was in. I can’t tell you how glad I am that I read this book. It took no time at all to fall into this one. The first chapter opens with a sighting of a little…

ARC Review: Relative Fortunes by Marlowe Benn *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I agreed to read Relative Fortunes by Marlowe Benn because it is set in the 1920s in the United States and frankly there just is not enough of this time period in my opinion. The fact that it was a mystery as well only added to the appeal. I’m not going to lie, it…
