Miss Alice Merriwether's Long Lost Cakes & Further Arcane Inducements to Wonder

Miss Alice Merriwether's Long Lost Cakes & Further Arcane Inducements to Wonder by Barry Aitchison
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

Odd, very strange book. The plot is cute, but it is just such a strange book. I can identify the merit why others enjoy the book. But, my literary taste doesn't fall in line with the strange humor Mr. Aitchison laid out in this book.

Sh*t My Dad Says

Sh*t My Dad Says by Justin Halpern
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I liked this book. But I thought I would like it more. I was expecting a laugh out loud kind of book. I didn't laugh out loud. Maybe a little giggle. The stories were fun and entertaining. But, I didn't really get anything out of it other than basic entertainment for a couple of hours.

Water for Elephants

Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

"Water for Elephants" is a beautifully written book. I was totally immersed in the time period. Felt and smelled the dirty and disgusting environment the main characters experiencing. I haven't seen the movie but hope I went do, I won't be disappointed. Ms. Gruen painted such a vivid and lush story, the movie that played in my head while I was reading the book was immensely enjoyable.
