Book Review : Tony Tractor Gets Glasses

Book Review : Tony Tractor Gets Glasses
 

Title - Tony Tractor Gets Glasses
Author - Mallory Dyer

Tony Tractor Gets Glasses is a delightful and heartwarming tale about courage, confidence, and learning to see the world in a new way. It follows a little tractor who struggles with his eyesight. When Tony finds out he needs glasses, he actually thinks he looks pretty cool in them.

With his new glasses, Tony can finally see clearly. But he begins to worry—what if his friends make fun of him? And when they do laugh upon seeing him, Tony panics and tosses his glasses away to make things “normal” again. What happens next is both touching and meaningful.

The illustrations are lovely, and the cover is especially eye-catching. The book is beautifully written, and I’m genuinely impressed by the author’s creativity and storytelling. My niece read it and adored how the author delivered an important lesson in such a fun, engaging way.

Rating 5/5

Thanks for reading.

Book Review : Code Blue

Book Review : Code Blue
 

Title - Code Blue 
Author - Joe Boi 

Joe Boi brings a unique voice to horror fiction with Code Blue, a novel that blends psychological trauma with supernatural dread in a way that feels both terrifying and meaningful. This is not your typical jump-scare story—it digs deeper, exploring the emotional and mental toll of war, survival, and grief through a protagonist who feels painfully real.

Ariel Arcardo isn’t just fighting monsters; she’s battling her own fractured mind. A former Army medic with PTSD, her journey through the nine haunted hospital floors feels like descending into the core of her subconscious. The setting—a once-safe space turned hellish—adds an eerie intimacy to the terror. Every twist in the hallway, every vanishing colleague, pushes the line between reality and nightmare.

What’s impressive about Joe Boi’s writing is how he keeps the horror relentless without sacrificing character development. You care about Ariel, not just because she’s in danger, but because she’s been in danger for years—long before this one night. The demons are frightening, yes, but the emotional weight behind them makes the horror personal.

If you enjoy horror that makes you feel as much as it frightens you, Code Blue is worth diving into. It’s a journey through fear, memory, and courage—one that stays with you after the final chapter.

Rating - 5/5
