The Trivia Lover’s Guide to the World by Gary Fuller

Hi there, this fourth post is actually an adult non-fiction title. Just to put this particular title into context, you need to know a little bit more about my crazy childhood. I must confess to you now, it was filled with trivia in all shapes and sizes. So obviously when this delightful book fell into my hands I was giddy with joy and proceeded to read it from cover to cover. If you enjoy trivia like me; then have a read of this review.

Under the egg by Laura Marx Fitzgerald

Hi there, this week’s review takes on a different subject entirely. It’s all about art history and some dark family secrets. I had read this book with hope that I will learn quite a bit about art history and it didn’t disappoint. Just a small note though: keep some tissues handy!

One dog and his boy by Eva Ibbotson

Hi there,  So today I continue with another ‘tween’ read that I enjoyed very much. I read this a few years ago and since I fell in love with Eva Ibbotson’s writing, went back and read all of her older novels too. This particular title spoke to me as it represented not just a friendship; but one between a young boy and his special friend!! Hope you like it!!

My first post

Well, here it is!! My very first blog post on my very own blog!!

I had wanted a space to write reviews of the many books I’ve been reading in my own style for a while and after months of hard work, here it is!!

I’m Miss Mahee, a librarian by day, closet binge-reader, artsy-scrapbooker, and now, writer by night!!

In this brand new blog I will be writing up book reviews, mostly, on the many varied and wonderful ‘tween’ reads that I’ve found interesting, exciting and challenging. Every now and then I will try to write-up reviews on adult and teen titles that have caught my fancy.

A quiet note readers, I’m not one to write too critical a review; I’m a reader of books that deliver a positive and inspiring message.

So readers, welcome to ‘Miss Mahee’s Library of Reads’!!

Please feel free to leave any comments as I look forward to hearing your thoughts too.

See you around!

Miss Mahee
