Wow. Another year gone. It’s time to raise the curtain and let the best debuts of 2018 take their bows. It may not have been the easiest year for my reading, but once again debut authors gave me a lot of happy. If you're stuck on a gift for the reader in your life, all of these came out earlier in the year so should be available at your local book store. Plus, they're on a ... Read More...
November Reading Wrap-Up
Well, my November this year was not as much of a blockbuster as last year, but I did read four outstanding books, out of a total of 12 for the month. Not too surprisingly, they were all books released several years ago. Generally, November is a slow time for new releases (which seems odd to me because it’s right in time for holiday sales).

I can’t speak for anyone else, but for me books I loved or hated are easier to write about. A book ... Read More...
What I’m Reading This Week (10/19/18)
This is a very interesting reading week for me. For the first time in several months I don’t have any upcoming releases I plan on reading. I’ve finished with October and there is nothing in November until the middle of the month. All of which means I’m left to my own devices—which could be a good thing or a not-so good thing, depending on how I choose. Do I go with ... Read More...
Ten Long Books: Hits and Misses
For a lot of people, a book’s page count is enough to make or break the decision on whether to read or not. Not for me—I’m one of those book freaks who loves a book that counts as strength training every time you lift and lower it. There’s something about falling into a book and staying in that has always been appealing. It’s why I don’t read short stories very often—I finish ... Read More...
