Best Book Ever: Sally Lockhart Vs. Cormoran Strike

January 11, 2020 / The Chemistress / Leave a comment

Wow, after the powerhouse of last week's match-up, this one feels lackluster, but make no mistake, I love both of these books. Will the modern day Londoner win out against the 19th century version? Let's find out. The Sally Lockhart Chronicles by Phillip Pullman A few contenders on the list feel too childish to be … Continue reading Best Book Ever: Sally Lockhart Vs. Cormoran Strike

Book Reviews: Quarter Four

December 27, 2019 / The Chemistress / Leave a comment

Quarter Four! The end of the year is upon us, and I indeed met my goal of reading 50 books this year!

Read Like a Freak This year I committed to read 60 books. Much more ambitious than my goals of years past, my recent addiction to audiobooks and a two hour commute are the only ways I'm likely to make this happen. That said, I do tend to be quite a book freak. My boyfriend told … Continue reading Book Reviews: Quarter One

August 5, 2018August 5, 2018 / The Chemistress / Leave a comment

Unlike many of my books which I find, place on my list, and casually ignore for months before deciding I’m ready, “The Girl Who Never Read Noam Chomsky” reeled me in immediately. I like to wander into my brick and mortar independent bookstore, Star Line Books, looking for one tome, knowing it won’t be there … Continue reading “The Girl Who Never Read Noam Chomsky”
