Somehow August is already here and I don’t know if I think it’s too soon or what took so long. I’ve really lost the ability to process time. Also, apparently to dress myself as I went half a day with a tee shirt on backwards. Sigh. The good news is that my July reading went well, even if it was different from my usual fare. Nonfiction came on strong. This month ... Read More...
Pretty Things: A Novel
Nina is the kind of pretty that stands out, but not enough to be a problem if you’re a grifter stealing from rich people in L.A. She’s got a keen eye, both for fine art and antiques (thanks to an MFA), and for drunk spoiled men who aren’t likely to miss valuable items from their homes. Vanessa is an heiress who fits Nina’s profile, but as an Instagram influencer she’s too aware ... Read More...

Normal is another world and anyone who thinks they can click their heels when these ... Read More...

And now, right in front of her eyes, a woman has jumped in front of a moving subway car. Except this horrible event leads to Shay meeting two ... Read More...
February Reading Wrap-Up
The roller coaster that was my January reading ground to a halt in February. I can’t even blame the weather because Michigan has had one of its most mild winters (so far!) in years. Instead, it seems as if it’s something larger in the air because most of the readers and bloggers I know reported the same thing. Sadly, this means I’m going to sound crankier than ever in this ...
