Book Review: The Splendid and the Vile: A Saga of Churchill, Family, and Defiance During the Blitz by Eric Larson (2020)

Book Review: The Splendid and the Vile: A Saga of Churchill, Family, and Defiance During the Blitz by Eric Larson (2020)

It took me half a year to finish this book. I chose it from BOTM because I only had a vague knowledge of Churchill and the first year of his position as PM isn’t something I knew much about; I knew him to be a great orator and I had standard knowledge on WWII. This book I believe gives you good insight on Churchill the father, the soldier, the man who was not afraid to wear everything on his…

Book Review: All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr (2014)

Book Review: All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr (2014)

This was an absolutely gorgeous and heartbreaking novel. Switching back-and-forth between two protagonists, and the occasional interloper, Doerr weaves a tale set during World War II, involving a blind French girl, and an ingenious German boy. Both are trying to make sense of the world around them, while trying to survive.

Book Review: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (The Hunger Games #0) by Suzanne Collins (2020)

Book Review: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (The Hunger Games #0) by Suzanne Collins (2020)

President Snow was destined for greatness, but his path to success is not so linear. Suzanne Collins explores 18-year-old Coriolanus Snow, a post-war Capitol, and the 10th Hunger Games.

I was hesitant to read a book about one of the most horrible dictators in the history of this universe. But boy, I have to admit that I was blown away. Collins has such an amazing way of writing lyrics into her…

Book Rambling: The Lottery and Other Stories by Shirley Jackson (1948)

Book Rambling: The Lottery and Other Stories by Shirley Jackson (1948)

First of all, I love Shirley Jackson. I fell in love with her when I had to read The Lottery back in 7th grade. The teacher actually had us read it out loud so it went by

slower than if I had just read it myself…so I declined to read aloud and read it quietly in class. When I was finished I was so confused, and then waited to hear the ending read aloud and I was horrified.…
