New Books!
This week, I actually did a little happy dance when I opened the mail. I know that my fellow reviewers know that special moment of glee when you get a terrific new book that you were really hoping for but didn’t think you’d get. The object of my affections is first on my list this week. The Ocean at the End of… Read more

Tuesday: Teaser Tuesday – a great teaser from one of my new books! Wednesday: A review from Nanette, my new reviewing buddy. She’s going to help we wade through the piles of e-book requests that come in.… Read more
Quotables
This quote really appealed to me. Have you ever met one of those people who seem to be proud of the fact that they haven’t read a book since they made it out of high school (and I’m guessing they weren’t valedictorian)? It always shocks me that people could be so proud of their ignorance, but they cling to it,… Read more

Hot Guys with Books!

Review: The Best of Punk Magazine by John Holmstrom and Bridget Hurd
Music history fans are gonna love this! I admit that, small town girl that I am, I wasn’t a big punk rock fan as a teenager. Many years later, I have more of an appreciation for it, although it will never be first on my playlist. But PUNK magazine was cool. It was something between a comic book and a music… Read more
New Books!
I think I have enough new books to post for miles, so I’ll share them with you a few at a time. I have a towering stack here next to the computer, and three more big, fat envelopes that came in while I was gone last week. Heavenly! First, the book from yesterday’s teaser, Strange Bird by Anna Jansson: As the… Read more

I’m back!
First, I want to say thank you to the nice folks who emailed to check up on me. I know I haven’t been posting much, but Real Life has been kicking my butt lately. Work, family and travel have really kept me jumping, and sometimes those things have to come first. Still, it’s time to get myself back on track… Read more
