You know the rules: grab your current read, open to a random page and share a two sentence teaser with us (no spoilers!). Be sure to tell us about the book, so we can add it to our TBR list!

It was a slow week last week — only 2 books came in while I was gone. Hopefully, this will be a case of quality over Quantity. Straight from author Brian Andrews, I have a copy of The Calypso Directive. This looks like a great read and I am looking forward to it. Even better, I will have a copy to… Read more

Last week, while I was on the road, the Book Fairy visited and brought me some great new stuff! Waiting for Sunrise by William Boyd: Vienna, 1913. Lysander Rief, a young English actor in town seeking psychotherapy for a troubling ailment of a sexual nature, becomes caught up in a feverish affair with a beautiful, enigmatic woman. When she goes to… Read more
This is going to be another week on the road — this time, the traveling dog and pony show heads for Cincinnati, where we recently bought a facility. That’s going to be a long, long week with a lot of work crammed into just a few days, but I hope to keep up to date here. Monday: I got a… Read more
