26 A to Z Postcards, from Angelfish to Zebra by Wee Alphas

I received these postcards from Blogging for Books in exchange for a review. These did not disappoint! They were adorable and whimsical. They were brightly colored and I enjoyed seeing the various animals chosen for each letter. I particularly liked the illustrations of the jellyfish and vulture. It made two semi-repulsive animals look totally adorable. I also enjoyed the nod to fantasy and every little girl’s fantasy by having the letter “U” be represented by a unicorn. These would be perfect to send to small child for any number of occasions. They would even be cute to frame and hang in a bedroom, library, or office.  

Overall, I would give them 5 stars.

"Dark Matter" by Blake Crouch

While I originally picked this book because of its bright orange cover, I could NOT put this book down! It was a page turner that kept me guessing. I loved the search for the answer to the all the big questions: What makes me me? What would happen if I had chosen a different path? Are there an infinite number of mes out there living moments I wish I could (or never have to)? This book is part sci fi, part mystery, part thriller. Ultimately, though, it is about one man's search for love. Not the fleeting lust so many of mistake for love, but a love that has grown, been tended, and has become very foundation of the individual. I recommend this book to anyone who is a fan of such books. I give it 5/5 stars.
