Who is Christina Henry? Give us the low down. I’m a thirtysomething (OK, almost fortysomething) mom of one boy and I’ve been happily married for eleven years. When I’m not writing or helping my son build robots out of Legos I like to run long distances, bake sweet things (this is one of the many reasons that I run), and read as much as I can. I really enjoy watching movies where people get eaten by monsters – The Host, Jaws, Alien, and Night of the Living Dead are some of my favorites. Continue Reading

Jen’s Mini Reviews: Books by Christina Henry, Kate Canterbary and Tara Westover
I have a few mini reviews from wildly different authors. All are absolutely excellent and highly recommended. I’m starting with Lost Boy: The True Story of Captain Hook by Christina Henry. Wow! This recommendation came from a colleague and it did not disappoint me one bit. It’s a dark retelling of Peter Pan and the origin story of Captain Hook. In this not so happy fairy tale, Peter is a spoiled narcissistic psychopath. Not a doctor here…but I’m going for it with the psychopath Continue Reading

Each story flowed smoothly into the next and these author's voices worked very Continue Reading

Lost Boy: The True Story of Captain Hook by Christina Henry Fantasy/Myths and Legends July 4, 2017 Berkley Favorite Quote: “I hate Peter Pan.” Reviewed by Tori There is one version of my story that everyone knows. And then there is the truth. This is how it happened. How I went from being Peter Pan’s first—and favorite—lost boy to his greatest enemy.

Tori’s Top Books for 2015
2015 was a strange year both personally and professionally. So many good books were published but not a lot wowed me. I know what you’re thinking- ”Dude, you have 24 books listed.” This is true. But I read over 300 new to me books this year, so this doesn’t even represent 10% of what I have read. MATH FTW!! Plus, it’s hard for me to pick. Unless I DNF, there is some aspect I enjoy about every book I read from the ‘wow this is fantastic’ 5 star reads to the ‘what the fresh hell was THAT’ 1 star Continue Reading
