“He had been pretending, then, to look into his past, when really he was looking into some alternate reality, some different version of his own history, some unseen world.”

This was an outstanding book and I don’t want to give too much away so I apologize for the brevity of my review. Just know that I emphatically recommend Liz Moore’s The Unseen World! Ada Sibelius is being raised by her single father, David, in late 1970s Boston. Like her father Ada is very intelligent, prodigal even. She is home schooled by her father at his research lab in everything from computer science to literature and while she has no friends her own age she is […]

I listened to the audio version, and hearing the name “Joshua Templeton” repeated over and over varied from obnoxious to over the top hysterical, depending on my mood. I liked Lucy, but I have trouble getting behind the whole “I’ve loved you all along which […]

“Hello,” it said.

I’ve been sitting on my review of this one for a little while, not quite sure about what I want to say or how I want to say it. I do know that I’m so grateful for other reviewers like Fiat.Luxury, badkittyuno, and narfna for bringing it to my attention. I love when a book I knew nothing about, had never seen or heard about, suddenly jumps onto my radar when someone whose book opinions I trust talks about it. The Unseen World has a […]
