Perry Firekeeper-Birch was ready for her Summer of Slack but instead, after a fender bender that was entirely not her fault, she’s stuck working to pay back her Auntie Daunis for repairs to the Jeep. Thankfully she has the other outcasts of the summer program. Together they ace obstacle courses, plan vigils for missing women in the community, and make sure summer doesn’t feel so lost after all. But when she attends a meeting at a local university, Perry learns about the “Warrior Girl”, an ancestor whose bones and knife are stored in the museum archives, and everything changes.

Authentic cultural/anthropological perspective
Revisado: 04-14-25
There are lessons within the story. Very accurate information. Thrilling learning journey for the protagonist! Use of Indigenous languages was great! I feel like I learned just a little bit by listening to the spoken words. Powerful and satisfying story.

3rd (?) time reading
Revisado: 05-06-23
Sarah J Maas plays a long game. Love all the little clues she weaves in. You’ll definitely want to read the rest of the series to get the full story!

Magnolia Brown is nineteen years old, broke, and effectively an orphan. She feels stuck and haunted: by her overdrawn bank account, her predatory landlord, and the ghost of her late grandmother Mama Brown. One night, while working at her dead-end gas station job, a mysterious, slick stranger named Cotton walks in and offers to turn Magnolia’s luck around with a lucrative “modeling” job at his family’s funeral home. She accepts. But despite things looking up, Magnolia’s problems fatten along with her wallet.

Beautiful performance! Heavy, real life plus supernatural creepiness. Took me out of my comfort zone with the abuse, rape, and death, but I’m glad I stayed with it. Not for the faint of heart!

It is an ordinary Thursday, and things should finally be returning to normal. Except trouble is never far away where the Thursday Murder Club are concerned. A decade-old cold case—their favorite kind--leads them to a local news legend and a murder with no body and no answers. Then a new foe pays Elizabeth a visit. Her mission? Kill or be killed. Suddenly the cold case has become red hot.

Fabulous characters! Narrator performance lacking.
Revisado: 03-22-23
Loved the story and the continuing capers of the main characters, but the narrator performance wasn’t in sync with the characters as the first two books in the series. Still a great story!

1828. Robin Swift, orphaned by cholera in Canton, is brought to London by the mysterious Professor Lovell. There, he trains for years in Latin, Ancient Greek, and Chinese, all in preparation for the day he’ll enroll in Oxford University’s prestigious Royal Institute of Translation—also known as Babel. Babel is the world's center for translation and, more importantly, magic. Silver working—the art of manifesting the meaning lost in translation using enchanted silver bars—has made the British unparalleled in power, as its knowledge serves the Empire’s quest for colonization.

Powerful story
Revisado: 02-01-23
Prepare to be challenged. As you read this powerful story, you will encounter more history than fiction and be compelled to reflect on your own anger, love, friendships, and actions.

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Compelling story telling
Revisado: 12-30-22
Only book I’ve read this year that brought me unexpectedly to tears. The story was exciting, unpredictable and fresh. The narration was engaging and conveyed emotion exceptionally well. Recommend for science teachers especially, but also anyone who has a heart for exploring and problem solving.
