The Ballad of Persephone (The Anuk Chronicles) by Abdur R. Mohammad
I had the pleasure of reading another book from this series so when this one appeared, I jumped at the chance to see where the story was going next. Again, I give the same advice as my review of my previous read – make sure you are in intense reading mode. This author packs a … Continue reading The Ballad of Persephone (The Anuk Chronicles) by Abdur R. Mohammad
Chattanooga Choo Choo: An Electric Eclective Book by Elizabeth Horton-Newton
This novella appears to be a sweet tale of a murder (or two) on a train ride. After receiving this book as part of my VIP bag at the now Orlando Book Fest (was Indies Book Fest) I put it on my reading stack and gave it little thought. However, on a recent between book … Continue reading Chattanooga Choo Choo: An Electric Eclective Book by Elizabeth Horton-Newton
The Betrayal of Ka (Transprophetics #1) by Shea R. Oliver
This is not a light Sci-Fi book in all the good ways. As I read this I had the feeling that I was reading through a trilogy – there is that much contained in these 267 pages. Ka and his other characters took me back to when Sci-Fi was darker and more intense than a … Continue reading The Betrayal of Ka (Transprophetics #1) by Shea R. Oliver
Substitute Soloist – An Andy Veracruz Mystery Book 4 by D. R. Ransdell
Having recently finished the third in this series I happily jumped into #4. I have read this whole series, and while the first three were somewhere slightly above a Cozy in the mystery department, this book is solidly in the Mystery genre. The author has added a lot of depth to not only the main … Continue reading Substitute Soloist – An Andy Veracruz Mystery Book 4 by D. R. Ransdell

Dizzy In Durango: An Andy Veracruz Mystery #3 by D. R. Ransdell
I met this author a couple of years ago at the Tucson Festival of Books – her smile pulled me to the booth, but her main character, Andy keeps me coming back for more reads. It’s been a while since I read a book in one day. Yesterday was a rare day off for me, … Continue reading Dizzy In Durango: An Andy Veracruz Mystery #3 by D. R. Ransdell
The Map of the World by Zev Good
I believe that story collections are the hardest to review. But this collection makes it easy. When I started this book, I put something on Twitter, and the author responded that HAD was his favorite in the collection. And while that was very good, my favorite was Somebody’s Always Saying Goodbye. While the main character … Continue reading The Map of the World by Zev Good
Rise of Villains (The Anuk Chronicles Book 2) by Abdur R. Mohammed
While this is the second book in this series, it does well as a stand-alone. This is an intense read with a lot going on, so bring your A-Game reading skills. There is a jump back in time about a third of the way into the book that gave some great information and clarified a … Continue reading Rise of Villains (The Anuk Chronicles Book 2) by Abdur R. Mohammed
Old Fart Advice by Michael J. Tate
My life has been filled with Old Farts giving advice. I was raised by a dad that loved to give OFA (Old Fart Advice), married a man who dispenses his OFA to any audience, and I also gave birth to an old soul young man who now shares all kinds of OFAs with the high … Continue reading Old Fart Advice by Michael J.
