Continue reading →: Review: The Lawman’s Surprise by Catherine Mann
I enjoy the the Top Dog Dude Ranch series and consider it a great palate cleanser. When I’m stuck on what to read next, I usually gravitate back to any Harlequin series I’m in the middle of. They are a quick read, they are fairly consistent, and they deliver a…

Continue reading →: Review: Voyage of the Dogs by Greg Van EekhoutThere is something about Van Eekhout’s books for younger readers that I find irresistible.

My Thoughts: Contains Spoilers Your Blood, My Bones is like a fever dream. A lot of it doesn’t make much sense, but it’s impossible to turn away from. It was bold and chaotic and confusing, and I enjoyed every minute of it. Right up until the ending, where I felt…

This has been on my TBR list for a while, and when I saw that it was at the library, I borrowed it. I’ve read one other book by the author, Given to the Sea, and I still have mixed feelings about that one. The world-building made for a repulsive…

Where has this book been all my life? Seriously. I have a paperback copy somewhere in the basement that I never read, which was purchased long, long ago. Since I read almost exclusively in digital now, there was little chance that I would go digging through boxes of books for…

Continue reading →: Zoo Boo 2024
We went to the Zoo Boo at the Detroit Zoo on Saturday, and I wanted to share pictures, because life isn’t all about reading. This is the second time I’ve been to the Zoo Boo, but the first time without dragging along any kids. The event was packed, and because…

My Thoughts (May Contain Spoilers) The last thing I’ve read by Dean Koontz was a graphic novel adaptation of Odd Thomas. I liked it. When I saw the cover for his latest novel, The Forest of Lost Souls, and saw that it was part of my KU membership, I decided…
