pyrajane’s #21 and #22

Taking a quick break from reading to get caught up on reviewing.

#21: The Girl Who Stopped Swimming by Joshilyn Jackson

This one is a little bit of everything.  Ghosts, mystery, family relationships, childhood tales…  A mix that could have gone wrong, but Jackson controls it and writes a good story.

Read the rest, including why I just can’t hate the sister, over here.

 

 

#22: The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery

Quirky, smart, and charming.  This one was hard to describe, but I liked it.  Hop on over to my place to learn more.
