I’ve only experienced one Michigan spring, but this May felt very different. We’ve had almost no rain and the temperatures jumped from the 50s to the 80s in days. Ugh. Except, as I write this, the heat is on again (after a/c for two weeks), I’m wearing a sweater and it’s pouring. Go figure. As far as reading goes, I was on a tear this month. Lots and lots of books, ... Read More...
April Reading Recap
My April graphic is a lovely, but inaccurate depiction of the month this year. At least here in Michigan where we swung from bright spring days to snow last week. My reading followed the same path—with nonfiction continuing to be strong, but new-release fiction being hit or miss. Vera is fast, light historical fiction. Edgarian evokes the terror ...

Spring 2021 Books I’m Ready to Read
I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’m looking forward to this spring far more than I did last spring.

My husband and I are scheduled for our first Pfizer vaccine next week, we’re both healthy, our families ... Read More...

There will have to be some rereading in my future, combined with cursing ... Read More...
Gilmore Guide News
No review today, my dears. Just an update and some positive, fun news. No, it’s not about my hair which is a hot mess, but I’m owning growing in the gray and, more importantly, I'm happy and healthy. You may have noticed, from time to time I mention and post links to a podcast I appear on called Sarah’s Book Shelves Live. Well, it seems people like hearing me talk ... Read More...
February Reading
What to say about February? Mostly that it felt like the only real month of winter and that’s here in Michigan. For those of you in the South and Pacific Northwest I’m sure it felt like hell. As for reading, it was an interesting month. My reading felt oddly decisive—loved or hated books. There was no middle ground, I either loved or stopped reading a book. The good ... Read More...
