Book Review : Muppit Boy and the Wheel of Power  I had a lot of fun with Muppit Boy and the Wheel of Power. The book jumps straight into superhero territory, but Mo is definitely not your typical perfect superhero. He is still awkward, still worried about his oversized nose, still trying to figure out what to tell his friends, and still capable of getting himself into some seriously complicated situations. I liked that contrast because it keeps the story light and entertaining while giving Mo plenty of personality. The action is one of the strongest parts of the book. The Ferris wheel sequence is especially exciting, with Mo and Charlie working together to rescue people while the situation keeps becoming more dangerous. There is also plenty of humor sprinkled throughout Mo's narration, which makes even tense moments feel approachable. Another thing that stood out to me was the development of Mason Rizzo. I wasn't expecting the school bully to become such an important part of Mo...

Book Review : Clyde The Alien Puppy  At first glance, Clyde the Alien Puppy, Commander of the Galaxy looks like a lighthearted story about a puppy with a very big imagination. Beneath that playful premise, however, is a touching story about vulnerability, friendship, safety, and belonging. The puppies begin cold, hungry, and lost, immediately creating a sense of uncertainty before the story gradually moves toward warmth and security. I appreciated the way the six puppies rely on one another throughout their journey. Bonnie stays close, Daisy seeks reassurance, Bucky and Duke protect the group, and Ozzy brings comic energy wherever he goes. Their differences become part of what makes them work together. The final message is simple but surprisingly powerful: adventure isn't always about travelling somewhere extraordinary. Sometimes it is about discovering a safe place and the people or in this case, puppies with whom you belong. Knowing afterward that the story was inspired by six re...

Book Review : Bless your heart  Title - Bless your heart  Author - Susann Camus  Our book club picked Bless Your Heart for its mix of suspense and strong characters—and it didn’t disappoint. The story grabs you right away as Jeannie Johal investigates a research project and stumbles into a murder mystery. The Greenville, North Carolina setting felt real and atmospheric, with places like the research facility and Arboretum adding depth. The Southern tone came through naturally in the dialogue and social cues. Jeannie sparked discussion—some liked her calm, logical side, others wanted more emotional warmth. But all agreed she was competent and relatable. The plot was well-paced with clever twists and clues that respected the reader’s intelligence. It never felt overcomplicated or reliant on shocks. This is a solid, engaging read that’s perfect for book clubs looking for suspense with substance and conversation starters. Rating - 5/5 Thanks for reading.
