This month’s Book Hungry selection was JUST ONE DAY by Gayle Forman and there are some minor spoilers here. I bought my copy of JUST ONE DAY while at Laurie Crompton Boyle’s launch party for BLAZE – which you must also read, if you haven’t already. I’m a huge fan of Gayle’s work – my […]

1 In an ironic twist of fate, I bought this book while at the Huntington Book Revue waiting for my own book launch party to start. My son handed it to me and I started leafing through pages, giggling at some of the text… a great way to manage those public speaking nerves. 2 Written […]

This month, Bookhungry chose Veronica Roth’s DIVERGENT four – er, I mean for our discussion. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, the first in a series I’m enormously excited to finish.

Our Book Hungry members were chatting one day when the subject of the Harry Potter books came up and several members admitted never having read them. *pause for gasp* As they have become a publishing phenomenon, this astounded me. I’ve read the series several times over now but decided to re-read our selection this month […]

This month, Book Hungry reviewed Kiss of Snow, the latest story in the Psy-Changeling series. I’ve never read this series before, but after reviewing this book, I will definitely check them out. The story was compelling and the characters were exceptionally engaging. The story was wonderfully layered with suspense, political intrigue, power plays, and […]

When I was about sixteen, neighbors who didn’t know they were having twins welcomed two newborns home. I, of course, tripped over myself in my zeal to baby-sit. The new parents were shell-shocked for the first few weeks with buying two of everything, but one thing they did NOT have to worry about was their […]
