Review: Robert's Hill (or The Time I Pooped My Snowsuit) and Other Christmas Stories by Jeremy John

A small poodle is lying on a fluffy blanket with a softcover book on her left paw. She is surrounded with white Christmas lights. The book is Robert's Hill by Jeremy John.


Robert's Hill (or The Time I Pooped My Snowsuit) and Other Christmas StoriesROBERT’S HILL (for the time I pooped my snowsuit) AND OTHER CHRISTMAS STORIES by Canadian author, Jeremy John had me in stitches. My husband saw me laughing and made me read parts out loud for him to partake in this fun reading moment. My favourite story is Christmas Time in the Neighbourhood, a story of the time Mr. Rogers came to Jeremy’s home. I also enjoyed The Sweet Things, a touching story about the creation of the candy cane. This small book is packed with emotions from laughter to tears. I recommend it. It is a perfect Christmas cheer.

Review: Fight For Her by Liz Plum

Fight For Her  by  Liz Plum My rating:  3 of 5 stars 📚 Hello Book Friends! FIGHT FOR HER by Liz Plum is a coming-of-age YA Romance. It is an easy-going story about a love triangle between a popular girl, a star athlete, and a bad boy. The story was interesting and had some potential. It was just a bit too juvenile for my taste and sometimes too dramatic. It is nonetheless an enjoyable love story if you put your teenager's thinking cap on. The author delivered a good story with a lovely ending. #bookstadog #poodles #poodlestagram #poodlesofinstagram #furbabies #dogsofinstagram #bookstagram #dogsandbooks #bookishlife #bookishlove #bookstagrammer #books #booklover #bookish #bookaholic #reading #readersofinstagram #instaread #ilovebooks #bookishcanadians #canadianbookstagram #bookreviewer #bookcommunity #bibliophile #fightforher #lizplum #bookreview View all my reviews

Review: Waves by Ingrid Chabbert

Waves  by  Ingrid Chabbert My rating:  5 of 5 stars WAVES, written by Ingrid Chabbert and beautifully illustrated by Carole Maurel, is a deeply personal and poetic graphic novel that explores the profound journey of a young couple trying to conceive. Drawing from the author's own experience, the story delves into the emotional depths of heartbreak, resilience, and the power of hope. The use of metaphors in Waves is exceptional, creating a mesmerizing reading experience. Chabbert skillfully weaves together the themes of writing, coping, and healing, forming a profound connection between the protagonist's pain and her quest for renewal. The dreamlike illustrations by Carole Maurel add an ethereal touch to the narrative, particularly in the visual depiction of the boat and waves of paper. While the subject matter is emotionally intense, WAVES is an extraordinary work that invites readers to embrace vulnerability and contemplate the complexities of life. I highly recommend this gra
