Dark Matter by Blake Crouch | Book Review
WOW. This is one hell of a novel. Without giving too much of this incredible story away, the book follows a man named Jason Dessen, a married father who is a physics professor at a local university.

The narrative is written in a stream of consciousness/syntax format, and… Continue reading The Lesser Bohemians by Eimear McBride | Book Review
All the Ugly and Wonderful Things by Bryn Greenwood | Book Review
I utterly devoured this wonderful novel. The story follows Wavonna "Wavy" Quinn, a young girl who witnesses a biker wreck one day near her house.
