Book Review: Blue is the Warmest Color by Julie Maroh
I generally try to read books before I see the movies they are based on, and while this doesn’t always extend to graphic novels (I’m looking at you, Avengers and X-Men) I did with this one. And the book was definitely better.
Book Review: Radioactive: Marie & Pierre Curie (A Tale of Love and Fallout) by Lauren Redniss
Art and science have never blended together so well. Not only is this a fascinating glimpse at Marie and Pierre Curie’s life, the juxtaposition of text and illustration make this book a truly unique reading experience.
Book Review: Heartbeat by Elizabeth Scott
Don’t be fooled by this cover. While it does have a romance subplot, this is a novel about grief and loss and family and not just a teenage love story. Heartbeat by Elizabeth Scott
Book Review: Wave by Sonali Deraniyagala
This unsentimental and visceral account of one woman’s grief and loss after losing her entire family in the 2004 tsunami is a powerful read.
