I know many people have moved towards cozy holiday reading in the last month, but my reading has remained varied and a little bit dark. So, I have a compromise today: a book with a Christmas-y title, but written by the master of suspense and horror. It’s Stephen King’s Holly and while it won’t warm your heart it does involve hearts and is no more terrifying than the news these ... Read More...
November Reading Wrap-Up
It’s odd to say, but for the most part November felt like a normal month. So, either I’m acclimating to chaos or my memory has blanked out the month. What I do know is that it was a Wild West rodeo for my reading. There was the fun of getting to read whatever I felt like and the not-so-fun inability to settle down into books I’d expected to love.

Mr. Mercedes by Stephen King

There were a handful of cases he and his partner were never ... Read More...

I’m also going to do something I’ve never done before: recommend a book without a real review, just a sentence or two. Basically, you take my word for it that this is a ... Read More...
October Reading
October has come and gone and my book reviewing has not rallied as I hoped it would. I’m still reading, but still finding it hard to corral my thoughts. I’m not sure where this is headed, but thanks for sticking with me. If you need more reading ideas I am still co-hosting a podcast—somehow talking about books is easier than writing! Links to most recent episodes are below. As ... Read More...
