An Overwhelmed Creative

I really enjoyed this book. I have only watched about two or three episodes of the series—back when it came out—and I had no idea that the book started just like the series. Now I really want to watch the series. It was also a murder mystery and I always enjoy a mystery. The pacing was well done and I didn't find myself wanting to skip parts.  The vampires, to tell the truth, were a little creepy. The rules about what it means to be a vampire were mostly explained, but I still had a few questions. Especially about what they were doing or how they hid when they weren't "legal", but I liked that they still still had their own minds intact, or most of them did. The story did have quite a few characters, and sometimes I couldn't remember who someone was, but it wasn't anything that distracted from the story. This is a really good book and I'm glad it got made into a series, can't wait to watch it. Cheers!

This is one of the best stories I've heard with the kids. Interview with the Robot grabbed us from the start. We couldn't stop listening. It was well developed and when the reveal comes we were in shock. It was a story that made my kids (10 going on 11 and 13) think . It was so interesting hearing what they had to say about the situations with the robots and who is right and wrong in the debate whether artificial intelligence creates beings  who need to be respected or if they're still just things. Made me think about a watered down version of Westworld . Pretty cool. I recommend this audiobook. All of the voice artists did a WONDERFUL job, as well.  Loved, loved, loved this book. cheers!

I like to read about one or two of these thrillers each year. I can't read more than that because I get so stressed out and I can't seem to put this genre down.  I purchased The Woman in the Window  from my school's book fair. They have a table with adult novels and one of my teacher friends recommended it to me. To be honest, back then I didn't know they were turning it into a movie. I actually found out while I was reading it and was surprised to find out its release had been moved back due to the pandemic. At least I got some extra time to read it. The books contains the typical unreliable narrator, this time in the person of Dr. Anna Fox, who is agoraphobic and can't bring herself out of the house. This, for one, was so interesting to me. I learned a few things about the condition. I definitely didn't expect the first twist in the story, either. The last reveal was a little more predictable, but I enjoyed it anyway. I saw the signs and I interpreted them cor...
