In elementary school, her teachers would tell Riley they'd never seen a kid with such an innate passion for reading. Her love of books quickly graduated to a love of writing, and she is currently working toward a Professional Writing degree at Champlain College. Her greatest dream is to be a bestselling novelist.

An extraordinary story about a girl growing up in a swamp in the most unconventional way. There's nature, adventure, love, and murder. What else do you really need?
Timeless! A quick read that demands not to be forgotten. A classic coming-of-age novella that leaves you nostalgic at the very least. If you've seen Stand By Me but haven't read its predecessor, stop being a disgrace and read this book.
I don't normally read history, but this book gripped me from start to end. Wilkerson's research is phenomenal, writing about these real people and stories with such detail and passion that it is as if she had created them herself. Well worth all 525 pages!
I didn't want to put down this story about all the lives affected by a remote hotel and a massive Ponzi scheme. We're more connected than we'll ever know.
There's a reason this topped the Indie Bestseller's list and a reason I now list it as one of the best books I've read. I would have believed anything who told me that this was a true story because of eloquent way Bennett crafted and wrote Desiree, Stella, Jude, and Kennedy. Two separate worlds that have more in common than they care to admit, and what happens when someone crossed from one into the other without looking back.
Truly captures what it is like to grow up with a best friend. Relatable, humble, and stark, I breezed through the first book in the series.
All of Wendy Mass' books are extraordinary, but this one is something else. Unassuming with its goofy cover and candy theme, The Candymakers pleasantly surprised me with winding plot and thirst-quenching mystery. One timeline with four perspectives told one at a time. With each new POV, there is explanation... yet the mystery seems only to thicken...
Short in length, dense in substance. This book can be read with new layers of understanding each time. Conrad takes you deep into the jungle of the Congo and illustrates what it means to be beastly. I closed the back cover in awe.
Everyone should read this book! Two characters from very different origins at the start of the 2nd World War find a connection in the place you'd least expect. Let Doerr take you back in time and introduce you to Marie-Laure and Werner, both who will steal your heart and bring tears to your eyes.
