**A Good Girl’s
Guide to Murder (Fiction, H. Jackson)
This YA book was about 150 pages too long. I usually like YA, but this one fell short. I was bored.

****In
a Dark, Dark Wood (Fiction, R. Ware)
This
was a great mystery (although dark) that didn’t require a lot of brain power.
****To
All the Boys I’ve Loved Before (Fiction, J. Han)
Another
YA, although this one came through. It’s
lighthearted, dramatic, centered on family and gives you all the feels!
****Joy
At Work (Non-Fiction, M. Kondo)
Another
book from the tidying expert, Marie Kondo.
Nothing majorly earth shattering here, except it did inspire me to clean
out a lot of my digital clutter.
****The
Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (Fiction, S. Collins)
4.5
stars…..this is a prequel to the Hunger Games series. It is the story of Coriolanus Snow and the
beginning of his rise to the top as President of Panem. For me to give 4-stars to a book where the
main character is so unlikable is pretty much unheard of. But this book is so much more than story of
Coriolanus Snow and his rise to the top.
It really gets into the history of the Hunger Games, when there was just
one arena every year and before there was gambling and sponsors involved. I found it all fascinating. It is a bit long though (500+ pages) and it
was a little slow in the middle. It's
also very dark, but no more than the other books are. Definitely a great prequel!
