This is one of my favorite classics and reading this version was an absolute joy. This was my first foray into Manga classics and I want to read more. This was such a lovely read and the artwork was just so beautiful. Each turn of the page I found myself more enraptured.

I want to thank Netgalley and Gallery/Scout Press for allowing me to read an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review. Nat is in a terrible position. She is a broke art student struggling to pay her bills as well as trying to work things out with her two roommates who are not fond of her. One day after class she goes for a drink with the beautiful Ava who seems to be living a great life in NYC while Nat lives in a crowded apartment in Brooklyn Ava lets Nat in on a secret, she is a sugar baby. At first Nat equates sugar baby with prostitution but Ava says you only have to do what you want. You go on this site, meet up and usually get 500 dollars for a drink or coffee date. It's that simple. Nat still is not interested until she loses her job and is informed by her roommates that she owes them money. Desperate she decides to give it a go. When Nat meets Gabe, a divorced Dad of an 18 year old daughter she thinks she has really lucked out.  Gabe is a good 30 years older t...

~*And I Don't Want to Live This Life: A Mother's Story of Her Daughter's Murder by Deborah Spungen*~

I have read this book well over twenty times. Every single time I read it I am so moved by Deborah and what she went through trying to help a child that was turned away at every turn. No one understood what was wrong with Nancy and no one really wanted to understand. She was too smart, too high strung and honestly just too difficult.  She was a complicated child born into a world and a time where no one, including the medical community knew how to handle her. Drugged from birth did she ever really stand a chance? Was she predestined to be an addict? It certainly seems so.  Deborah's journey was harrowing and you can't help but feel for her and the Spungen family. Nancy seemed to affect everyone in her life.  This book is about more than the murder of Nancy by her boyfriend punk rock legend Sid Vicious. She was someone's child and this book covers every little detail of her life and death in a beautiful, sad way.  I recommend this book to everyone I know and...

~*The Rumor by Leslie Kara *~

5 out of 5 stars! First off I would like to thank Netgalley and the publisher Ballantine books for allowing me to read an advanced copy of this novel in exchanged for an honest review. Jo isn't the type of woman who spreads rumors. Well, at least not normally but then again a woman will do anything to help her child to fit in and belong! You see, she hears a little rumor and though she has no desire to mention it to anyone she lets the rumor slip at a book club.  It seems that there may be a child killer in their midst. A woman named Sally stabbed little Robby Harris when she was a child. She has been released for years and living under an assumed name. It seems she MAY have settled in their little town! Though Jo promises herself that she will not mention it again. It is a promise she plans to keep until she   finds out her son Alfie who was once bullied in the city they lived in before she moved to the small town to be hear her Mom and to save Alfie from bullying is...
