The … Continue reading The Manipulator By Dan Buzzetta
Forensics IV Guilty Until Proven Innocent by Harry A. Milman, PHD
Jennie's Review What a great start to my reading for 2026. This author always makes me put on my thinking cap, leading to illuminating reads. This time, he outdid himself.

The Family She Never Met by Caridad Pineiro
My Review You know how you go to a book festival, hear an author on a panel, and think, “If their writing is half as good as their speaking, this is going to be a treat.” Well, in this case, Caridad Piñeiro doesn’t just deliver—she knocks it out of the park.
