Introduction

     Hello and welcome to my book review blog!  My name is Amber.  I'm just finishing up my Master's of Arts in Mathematics and will be graduating from the University of Maine in a few short days.  Aside from a book review I wrote while in middle school, I have no experience with reviewing books and I never set out to review books, since that is my mother's domain.  However, I do read when I have a spare moment here or there and my partner Brian suggested that I try my hand at it, so I'm giving it a go.  Generally all of the books I write about will be ones that I think are worth reading, so even if my reviews are a bit scathing, there will be some redeeming quality I see in the books I discuss.  My interest in books spans many genres, so, while my current lineup consists of young adult horror and murder mysteries, you may also find reviews for adult horror, humor, historical nonfiction, memoir, genealogy, craft and diy books, and whatever else strikes my fancy.  Unlike my craft blog, which I post to weekly, I anticipate that my posts will be sporadic, with me writing more reviews over the summer when I have additional time to devote to reading and fewer during the school year.  These reviews will not be great works of literature, but my hope is that they will help you all find some new books to read.
