Lockup Library Book Club Book Club – Brave New World December 27, 2020December 27, 2020 What if God had made cars? So I just finished Brave New World. I don’t know how I feel about it. It’s definitely a book that I’ll have to revisit later. I think it’s a book that most of the points went over my head. I simply just don’t understand…. Read More
Lockup Library Book Review: The Raw Shark Texts November 28, 2020November 21, 2020 Welcome to my book review of The Raw Shark Texts by Steven Hall. As I was gathering a couple pictures, and reading the synopsis of the book to refresh myself on the book, I could swear that I’d done a review on it before. So I went to my site,… Read More
Lockup Library Just built! Show me your shelves! Do eet! January 16, 2021January 16, 2021 Hey book nerds! Before I went to SlightlyBiggerTown, mom suggested I look in the local hardware stores to find some shelves for my books.

Slaughterhouse Five is on my list of books I’d like to read, so I’d vote that. Of also like to recommend The Kingkiller Chronicles to you. A series of fantasy books by Patrick Rothfuss. Two books so far, with a third still to come. I loved them. Reply
Hiya Michael, welcome! Unfortunately, I’ve already read Slaughterhouse Five. I was looking for help in choosing a book on my shelves that don’t have an (r) behind the title. Right now I’m limited to the books I have on my shelves, as I’m literally a half hour from 2 other small towns and 2+ hours away from big cities with bookstores. I aggressively patrol second hand stores where I can get good books cheap. But if I see the KingKiller Chronicles in the second hand shops, I’ll pick em up! Reply
Brave New World. I think I’ve read that one before but I’m not sure so would also be interesting to read your review. Someone is advertising you again lol. Reply
Hey John! That’s two votes for Brave New World. I guess that’ll be the next book. I’ll see if any more comments come through. My reviews are awesome! She’s the best for advertising. Thank you very much for stopping by 🙂 Reply
I’d suggest Brave New World or Full Dark, No Stars. They’re both wildly different from each other, but I don’t think there’s anything on your “read” list that’s similar to Brave New World. Reply
