The Tropic of Serpents by Marie Brennan

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This book was fun enough that it made me want to continue reading the series but I think I liked book 1 a little better. Part of that may be due to the fact that I didn't have time to read this book in big chunks like I did the other one and these are tales that seem to thrive on momentum.

The Interestings by Meg Wolitzer

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


It's interesting that there's a review quote from Jeffrey Eugenides on the cover as this reads similarly to some of his work. This book did start out interesting but it moved on to rambling and exhausting. I was keen on seeing how it all ended but was more relieved to just be done with it.

Sleep Soundly Every Night, Feel Fantastic Every Day: A Doctor's Guide to Solving Your Sleep Problems by Robert Rosenberg

My rating: 2 of 5 stars


Not really helpful for my occasional sleep problems. Didn't really care for the quoted dialogs with patients. Felt intrusive more than informative.


I received a free ebook from netgalley.com.

Cascade by Maryanne O'Hara

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This is another one of those books that I kept coming back to because of the beautiful cover art. The story was quite good. Interesting combination of dramas set against an historical background.
