Cassandra in Reverse by Holly Smale poses a unique question ... If you had the power to change the past…where would you start? The next question might be, if you could keep going back, how man times would you "go back?"

Book Recommendation – The Ministry of Time
I waited a long time for The Ministry of Time to come out as an audiobook. On a recent trip to Barnes and Nobel, I found it and bought it. Shortly after I bought it and began to read it, the audiobook was released. I read the first 3/4 of it, and listened to the … Continue reading Book Recommendation – The Ministry of Time
Book Recommendations – Before the Coffee Gets Cold
I was in between books, knowing that one I had on hold would arrive in a day or two. I normally would wait to start a book in that situation, but the title of this one caught my eye. When I read the synopsis and saw it involved time travel, I picked it up. The … Continue reading Book Recommendations – Before the Coffee Gets Cold
Book Recommendation – Oona Out of Order
Books are a lot like music. "If you like _____, then you might also like _____." Thanks to some book blogger friends and the Goodreads app, there are always suggestions for books to read. I have read my share of time travel books, and this one was certainly different. This is the first book I … Continue reading Book Recommendation – Oona Out of Order
Book Recommendation: The Day Tripper
Slowly, but surely, I am working through my "Want to read" list. I just finished one that I almost stopped reading after the first chapter. It begins with a couple in their 20's who are in the early stages of their relationship. Their cheesy "lovey dovey" exchanges were a bit over the top for me. … Continue reading Book Recommendation: The Day Tripper
Book Recommendation: Wrong Place, Wrong Time
Not too long ago I posted about two books by Anthony Horowitz (Magpie Murders and Moonflower Murders) which were truly unique in that there was a book within a book in each one. The whole idea of a murder mystery connecting with another murder mystery story was such an interesting concept. The stories were very … Continue reading Book Recommendation: Wrong Place, Wrong Time

I suppose my desire to read comes and goes, but every book I have read lately has had something in the plot summary that peaked my interest. It's been fun to … Continue reading Another Good Read: This Time Tomorrow
Life Turns On A Dime
Just what does that even mean - "Life turns on a dime?" A quick Google search will offer up some explanations for folks unfamiliar with the phrase: "Since a dime is the smallest U.S. coin, the ability to "turn on it" is a figure of speech meaning you can change direction very quickly in a … Continue reading Life Turns On A Dime
Your Wish Is My Command
I can't remember what site I saw this on, but thought it was interesting to see the responses. If you had one "genie wish," what would you wish for? I think what makes the question tough to answer is that whenever we think of a genie, there always seems to be three wishes. That's not … Continue reading Your Wish Is My Command
Back in Time?
All writers get writer's block. I am hardly a "writer", but sometimes stare at the blank page and wonder what to write about. Since I began blogging, I have stumbled on blogs written by others who share some of the same interests as me. I have followed blogs that feature movies, TV, music, nostalgia, positive … Continue reading Back in Time?
