14 Buzz-Worthy Books You Should Read

Have you ever felt like no one is reading the books you are reading? I feel like that a lot. I sifted through Goodreads' list of "Hot & Fresh: The New Hit Books, According to Fellow Readers" and I might be right as I've only read 3 books on that list. Susan has read 5 books, and MK has read 7 books. So if you are looking for "well-kept secrets" of great books to read, then you should be checking out our reviews.

by Donna Huber


There are several days this month that celebrate the great outdoors: National Gardening Day (April 14), Earth Day (April 22), and Arbor Day (April 24).

Here are a few books that might inspire you to get outside this month.

Monsters in the Archives: My Year of Fear with Stephen King by Caroline Bicks ~ a Review

by MK French


Caroline Bicks was named the University of Maine's inaugural Stephen E. King Chair in Literature, the first scholar to be granted extended access by King to his private archives. Bicks focuses on five of his most iconic early works—The Shining, Carrie, Pet Sematary, 'Salem's Lot, and Night Shift—to reveal how he crafted his language, storylines, and characters. We see King’s margin notes and editorial changes, scenes, and alternative endings that never made it to print. The book also includes interviews Bicks had with King along the way that reveal new insights into his writing process and personal history.
