Book Club Book review: We Must Not Think of Ourselves By Lauren Grodstein

Post by: Jessica We Must Not Think of Ourselves  By: Lauren Grodstein  Cover: The cover is fine. The sunset provides some lovely colors but I don’t feel like the cover fits the story. Truly when I saw this book I had no idea what it was about. I knew nothing about the book before I started it and I don’t feel like the cover helped. Other than the Star of David there’s really no hint at the…

Book Review: Fearless by Lauren Roberts

Post by: Jessica Powerless (book 1) Powerful (book 1.5) Reckless (book 2) Fearless (book 3) By: Lauren Roberts Cover: The cover is fine. It’s pretty but rather basic. Flowers and a crown. I feel like this cover could very easily get lost in a sea of similar covers. But it does go with the other covers in the series so that’s nice.  Story: ★★ This book picks up right after the events of…

Book Club Book Review: Beartown by Fredrik Backman

Post by: Jessica Beartown By: Fredrik Backman Cover: I read the one with a winter scene with a few people playing hockey on a pond on the cover. The scene is pretty. It technically fits the story but I found it rather boring. It doesn’t have any sort of punch. Or anything to really grab my attention.  Story: ★★★ This was a book club read so not my usual read. It’s an adult… well I don’t know…
