Having read and enjoyed the first book in this series, I was thrilled to get this real postcard in the mail announcing the second book. In the continuing story of George, he is now in Australia for the funeral of his best friend PJ. His wandering life has led him to his … Continue reading Bronte (Bocas Trilogy Book 2) by Thomas M.

Regen by Cassie Greutman
Urban Fantasy has become a favorite of mine, so when I saw this book, I could not resist. About two chapters in I realized how much the main character sounded like my (now adult) daughter and I could not put it down. (and then my thoughts went to “well she sure is not fae considering … Continue reading Regen by Cassie Greutman
Operation Zombie Apocalypse Prep: Gearing Up! By Mr. Zhi
Ok, this is not my usual read, but the concept for this book was so intriguing I could not resist. Plus it is a Non-Fiction Book! There have been several discussions around my kitchen table about survival in an apocalypse and frankly the Walmart closing down near us has made most of our plans invalid! … Continue reading Operation Zombie Apocalypse Prep: Gearing Up! By Mr. Zhi
Gems of the Druid by Bradley James Simpson
While I enjoy what I perceive to be good fantasy stories, it is not my go-to genre. When I read books like this one, I wonder if it’s the genre or me. I could see glimpses of a good plot and characters, but then they would disappear only to reappear later in the book. Maybe … Continue reading Gems of the Druid by Bradley James Simpson
The Day Gravity Became Irrelevant by Ralph Rotten
A few years ago I met this author at the Tucson Festival of Books and picked up the first book in his Calizona series. I loved the irony, sarcasm, and banter between his characters. So, when I saw he was offering this book as a one-day freebie – I jumped. Once again he showed me … Continue reading The Day Gravity Became Irrelevant by Ralph Rotten
Review of the Texas Library Association Conference
Today, I have something a little different for you. This is an indirect book review. For the last 12 years, I have attended the Texas Library Conference. Texas and California vie for the largest state conferences and at times have more attendees than the national conference. This year we had over 7,000 attendees, almost 400 … Continue reading Review of the Texas Library Association Conference
The Wrong Stuff by Guy Thair
This was one of those books where the action is always going, and it is hard to decide where to stop when you need to get on with other things. Hannah Meredith is not your typical hero or adventure gal but that it just what she ends up having to be. The story has a … Continue reading The Wrong Stuff by Guy Thair
Crossing Lex by Debby Caruso
Ms. Caruso pulled me into her book Merry Hanukkah (or what I call the story of my life!) so when I saw she had published another book I grabbed it. When I saw that it was over 600 pages, I confess I was happy – sometimes I like totally disappearing into a book and I … Continue reading Crossing Lex by Debby Caruso
The Ordinary Monster by Mario Kiefer
Having read the first two books by the author, I could not wait for this, his third. Once again he is able to take his reader into another world. The Ordinary Monster shows the ripples that can occur for decades commencing at a single act of violence. Readers with an open mind will enjoy the … Continue reading The Ordinary Monster by Mario Kiefer
The Goodall Mutiny by Gretchen Rix
This book is the first in a Space Opera series. This author writes a cozy mystery series I enjoy so when I saw her name I wanted to give this a read. To be completely honest I have very little experience with Space Operas - this is only my 3rd book. I am still not … Continue reading The Goodall Mutiny by Gretchen Rix
