So, I was at work this past Sunday and things were slow and quiet for the moment. As usual when it gets like that, I found myself bored. I was trying to pass the time by singing one of my favorite songs: “My First Enemy” by Jeremy Jordan’s band “Age of Madness.” It’s been months […]

I am a literature geek working toward my Bachelor's in English with a concentration in writing. I love to read, and I'm always itching to write, especially creatively. I started "The Writer's Library" about three years ago, previously working with a Blogger platform before moving over to Wordpress. While I mainly post reviews of books, occasionally I will go ahead and review works in other media forms as well, such as music and certain television shows. No matter what I'm doing on here, I love to share with anyone who is willing to listen, and I'm excited to finally be on Wordpress!
Review: Children of the Black by W.J. Long III My rating: 4 of 5 stars So, I’m on something of a science fiction kick right now. There’s something about the genre that is intriguing to me. I love the imaginings of where our world may be one day. Long’s offering is no exception to this, […]
Pulse: Book One by B.A. Bellec My rating: 2 of 5 stars Well, this wasn’t what I expected… and I wish that was a good thing, but unfortunately, I’m just too bothered by what I deem to be problems with the story. Now, look, I didn’t arrive at this conclusion after just finishing the story. […]

Review: Jisedai by Daniel P. Riley
Jisedai by Daniel P. Riley My rating: 5 of 5 stars I expect a lot from the books I read. I have become the type of reader who reads critically as well as for enjoyment and reading critically has led me to often find issues with whatever I consume. Even if I enjoy a story, […]

Review: Prey by Imogene Ashton
Prey by Imogene Ashton My rating: 4 of 5 stars So… a bit of a slow start, yes, but once this story got going, it got going! Admittedly, I think it’s been quite a while since I read a straight, pure fantasy story. Growing up, one of my favorite series was The Children of the […]

Review: Of Madness and Misadventure
Review: Of Madness and Misadventure by Marjorie Townsend My rating: 2.5 of 5 stars I wish I didn’t feel as conflicted as I did. On the one hand, this is a pretty solid story with a beginning, middle, and end. On the other hand, it feels like it took forever to get there. I wish […]
Review: The One Behind the Psychologist by Courtland O.K. Smith My rating: 4 of 5 stars “‘When we first met, Julie asked her family what they thought of me, a second opinion. When you’re asked to give a second opinion, you automatically look for the negatives to validate being asked in the first place; highlight […]

Review: Spider-Man: No Way Home
So, I just saw Spider-Man: No Way Home on Christmas Day and I honestly feel that this movie deserves a proper review. Now, before I jump in, I want to preface this by admitting that I saw this film as a stand-alone movie – I did not see Marvel’s previous Spider-Man installments before seeing this, […]
