I read this book because the author suggested it to me on Goodreads. No, I do not know Chris so his suggestion made me smile and well, I agreed to read it. Most of you know I am not a horror fan and this book is at the edge of horror for me. There are … Continue reading A Murder of Saints by Chris Miller
Book Review
Shark Eater by K.D. McNiven
This is an adventure/action book and the story really keeps you moving at a quick pace. It reminded me of a Clive Cussler book. The book has almost two separate plots. The first is the story of Decker & Callie with salvager Dax and their search for a shipwreck from the 1500’s but the second … Continue reading Shark Eater by K.D. McNiven
The Darling Dahlias and the Unlucky Clover #7 by Susan Wittig Albert
This book is the seventh in the series but the first one of the series that I have read. I had the good fortune of receiving an Advance Reader Copy (there was a happy dance at the mailbox – and it’s a community shared box so there may have been talk). I have read a … Continue reading The Darling Dahlias and the Unlucky Clover #7 by Susan Wittig Albert

New Years Resolution
I need to read more for pleasure. I have a continuing moving list of To Be Read books for review or editing purposes but lately I have found that I am not reading just for the pure pleasure of it. That and the overflowing pile of books I have collected over the last few years … Continue reading New Years Resolution
I’d Rather Starve Than Cook by Lisa Orban
This book came up on one of the Facebook pages I follow. Got to admit that when I saw the title and blurb I was hooked. Luckily the author has a great sense of humor and took pity on my begging to read and review this book. Yes, I still have a ton of books … Continue reading I’d Rather Starve Than Cook by Lisa Orban
Eden Wakes by C. S. Harte
First and most importantly - this is a book for middle school through adult readers. There is nothing in here that I would not have allowed my 12 year old children to read. The main character, Kayla is a foster child. Along with the stress and pressures of being moved around a lot, dealing with … Continue reading Eden Wakes by C. S. Harte
Into Spring: The Next Generation by Larry Landgraf
While wandering through the Texas Book Festival, I had the pleasure of meeting this author. I was not shopping for books but rather for information. I wanted to know if paying for a booth at the Festival was worth it for Indie Authors. Larry was very helpful with information and provided me with his latest … Continue reading Into Spring: The Next Generation by Larry Landgraf
Seeker: A story in ChaosNova universe by David Noe and Laura Loolaid
I have never been a Science Fiction fan but I have found myself taking steps in that direction. This novella, helped me take a leap. My issue with Science Fiction is that it is not realistic - I know I hear you "but they are Sci Fi". But listen (or read) for a moment. If … Continue reading Seeker: A story in ChaosNova universe by David Noe and Laura Loolaid
