Review: Mindy Kaling - Book #63 - Little People, Big Dreams - Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara - July 2021. When I used to work in the libraries, I loved this series and enjoyed them coming through to our collections as it's like finally, they have found a fun and easy way to make biographies for children to read that isn't too lengthy and boring as kids love something that is readable and they can relate too. One of my favorite ones I used was Anne Frank. So when I saw that Mindy Kaling had one, I wanted to read it as I have enjoyed her as a comedian and writer as she is quite a hard case. In this book, we read as it introduces Mindy as a child growing up in an Indian-American household and her dream to become not only a writer but a comedian/actress. We read as she got a job writing for The Office and the producers and everyone loving her script that she finally was offered her character on the show which for a female especially being Indian-American was a great achievement.  T...

Review: Don't Say A Word - Book #3 Strangers Series - Jennifer Jaynes - May 2016 Scrolling through my kindle looking for something to sink my teeth into, I came across a Jennifer Jaynes book and decided to read it. I have to admit reading it did make me feel a little sad as the author died in sad circumstances a couple of years ago. This book begins with two twin sisters Zoe and Carrie wake up to blood everywhere in their home and their parents dead. The book then jumps to the girls being found and taken to a foster home where they meet Allie. Allie was raised by Bitty when her family was killed and now she lives with Bitty and her small son Sammy. During this time, Zoe and Carrie go through the stages of grief and secrets as Carrie has decided to stop talking and Zoe has started to attach herself obsessively to Allie but Sammy isn't happy about this as it's his mother, not hers. When more people end up murdered and Sammy injured, Allie realizes things aren't right wi...
