posted by Ms K
Well hasn’t this book caused quite the stir for all the wrong reasons. Before I get into that gumf, my message is simple – READ THIS PLEASE – because American Dirt is one hell of a book and Jeanine Cummins is one hell of a writer. The story is about Mexican woman Lydia and her […]

City of Girls by Elizabeth Gilbert
posted by Ms K
City of Girls is the most delightful romp and I chomped on it ravenously like a candy apple, which is fitting because if I had one word to sum City of Girls up, it is delicious! This story sparkles. It is irresistible and I fell under the spell of all its characters from the get-go. […]
