It’s the end of August, which means that it’s time to go back to school. Naturally, most kids don’t want summer to end, and are not looking forward to going back.

Robert Munsch
Recently, I wrote a post about an author named Eric Walters. He’s been one of the most influential authors in my life, and I am a huge fan of his books. But this got me thinking. If his books are impacting my life now, whose books used to impact my life? And whose books will …
The Great Escape
A few days ago, I visited The National Air Force Museum of Canada, in Trenton, Ontario. Besides getting to see lots of planes(like a restored Halifax bomber), and learning about the history of flying in Canada, I was very intrigued by an exhibit about “The Great Escape”. Since that story has seemingly fallen under the …

Little Blog On The Prairie.
There are some books that you instantly fall in love with the first time you read them. For me, one of those books was “Little Blog on the Prairie” by Cathleen Davitt Bell. Every summer, my family goes down to Nova Scotia to visit my Nanna. One of the things we always do when we …
The Hunger Games Trilogy
One of my favourite book series of all time is the Hunger Games Trilogy. The stories follow the adventures of Katniss Everdeen. She lives in an dystopian future, in the ruins of North America. Her country, Panem, is made of up of 12 districts, which are ruled by the Capitol. As a punishment for a …
Welcome to my blog!
Hi! My name is Leah, and I LOVE to read. The name of my blog actually derived from my passion of books, since people were always saying that “my nose was in a book”. Throughout my blog, I will be writing reviews of books I’ve read, as well as sharing interesting news relating to books …
