Book Review - The Adventures of Rockford T. Honeypot

The Adventures of Rockford T. Honeypot



About the Book
As a young chipmunk, shy, bookish Rockford T. Honeypot had dreams of thrilling adventures across the forest. However, timid of danger and germs, his only adventures were found in books and in his imagination. When his family abandons him after a mistake that destroys their hazelnut business, Rockford sets off on a legendary journey beyond his wildest dreams. From exploring cuisines with a famous chef, training with ancient warrior monks, flying on giant hawks, finding true love, and much more, Rockford recounts his epic origin story of hardship, perseverance, and fortune.





My Take on the Book
This was such a fun book that brings together a slew of characters that you will not soon forget. The characters are fun and on each page you will go on the adventure with the characters. The message of living a full life resounds in this book and anyone that reads it will definitely think to themselves about how they are living the fullest life that they can. Also, I loved to see how these animals found ways to live in harmony together and how so many worked to help one another in so many ways. The book was an inspirational read and definitely one that I would recommend to all!

Book Review - Evil Thing

Evil Thing



About the Book
Cruella De Vil is the perfect villain: stylish, witty, relentless...and possibly cursed.

From her lonely childhood, to her iconic fashion choices, to that fateful car crash (you know the one), Cruella tells all in this marvelous memoir of a woman doomed. Even the cruelest villains have best friends, true loves, and daring dreams. Now it's Cruella's turn to share hers.

This latest novel by the author of the wildly popular and darkly fascinating Villains series brings readers a tale told by the Evil Thing herself-a tale of the complicated bonds of female friendship, of mothers and daughters, and of burning, destructive desire.

After all, nothing is as simple as black and white.


My Take on the Book
My daughter is a huge Disney villain fan and she has been loving all of these Villains books. As she read this she said that what she loved about this story was that it could stand on it's own as a stand alone book. You did not have to read the other books to understand where this was coming from. This book will give you context into Cruella's childhood which was interesting as it allows you to see how she becomes the person that she becomes. The book did come to a quick ending, but I will say that as my daughter and O read this we were continually excited to read more and you will be too.
