Blue Door #3 #4 by Pamela Brown

I seem to be on a roll with regards to children's fiction books. It may be that they seem to be smaller and easier to tackle at this time. Some of them hide some unexpected surprises like the two that I intend to tackle in this post. I reviewed the other books in the series…

The Haunting of Elmwood Manor (Pekin Dewlap Mystery #1) by Pamela McCord

This book had a very large scope of possibilities. The children, (although they are teens and one of them drives, their conversations made me feel like they existed in a separate younger world) have been friends since as far as they can remember. The story jumps right into the premise, providing us with information about…

A Curious Place by Barbara Woodward

This is another experimental book that I had on my list for far too long and I should have gotten to sooner, especially since it was a morsel of a book for an adult. This is a fun set of fiction for children with the predominant focus being on kindness to animals and other people.…

Everdark by Abi Elphinstone

This book is still available to request on NetGalley as of posting this review Sometimes I dabble in books aimed at a younger audience to keep things interesting.

Maddy Alone By Pamela Brown

Four Different Stories by Daniel Pinkwater

I am working my way through my backlist as and when I am up for it, and the first thing I tackled was this smaller children's book that I had on my virtual shelf for a long time. This would not work for too young kids as they would probably be more entertaining for the…

The Swish of the Curtain (Blue Door #1) by Pamela Brown

There was only one main reason why I downloaded a copy of this book from Edelweiss+, and that was to satisfy my curiosity if this was a book I read almost two decades(a little lesser than that but I thought it sounded better than 1.5 decades) ago from British Council Library in my city. I…

Changeling (Sorcery and Society #1) by Molly Harper

There are days when you cannot find the right book to settle down with, it is never the books fault-just the day's. Further perusals of the books rejected on such days at a later time usually indicates a decent book if not a hidden gem. Today was one of those days. I had the time…
