Book Review: Rez Kid (2025)
Rez Kid by Andrea Landry
Isabella Fassler
‘My moshum taught me to pray for those with hard hearts. He says there’s always a soft part.’
Oh my goodness, the art in this book is absolutely stunning. Each page is beyond jaw-dropping. I’m seriously so impressed by the illustrations! Lovely work!
The message of the book is absolutely heart-warming, too. A young girl who is being bullied and teased at school tells her family about how bad of a time she’s having on the bus. Each family memb...

Book Review: Insatiable (2021)
MILD SPOILER WARNING
I have mixed feelings about this one. On the one hand, I finished it in a single morning and found it overall pretty sweet and am definitely curious about other books the author’s written (and I want to check out the rest of this series for the other couples). It’s very much an easy rom-com type of tale. On the other hand, I really struggled with Brody as a character. He was rather hard to root for despite the fact that he’d been through a...

Book Review: My Earth Journey (2025)
My Earth Journey by Evelyn Dean
I would never be alone as long as there were forests.
This was a really sweet, uplifting little story full of daydreams and escapism. The protagonist finds herself transported from the disappointments of fair-weather friends at school to the kind, playfulness of animals who bring her on a journey through the natural world. It’s almost reminiscent of Alice in Wonderland except the animals aren’t fantastical or speak, they’re simply taking her through thei...
Book Review: Missed Steps (2024)
MILD SPOILER WARNING
This was very sweet and generally lighthearted other than a few scenes. I truly felt for Kyle and what he went through. (I didn’t get the initial ostracism from the other characters at all, though. Like we go in and out of contact with people? Being a bullying brat – as a group, no less – about it because of one summer without contact seems a bit bizarre to me.) Some plot points didn’t totally work for me or I didn’t find entirely plausi...
