There have been plenty of books that I read that have an unreliable narrator. But in those cases, even though they may not always realize the consequences of their actions, those protagonists are mostly sound of mind. Lately, I read Turn of Mind by Alice LaPlante, whose protagonist has dementia and progresses into the latterContinue reading “Turn of Mind Book Review”

The Water Dancer Book Review
Warning: This book review contains references to sexual assault. Within the last two years, there’s been a call to reexamine how the United States views its racist past, slavery in particular.

As such, I would imagine its author Angie Thomas thinking long and hard about herContinue reading “On the Come Up Book Review”
