Cassandra Clare - City of Bones

 Publisher: Margaret K. McElderry Books ISBN13: 9781416914280 My rating: n.a. When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder — much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Clary knows she should call the police, but it's hard to explain a murder when the body disappears into thin air and the murderers are invisible to everyone but Cl...

Her heart was beating as if she had just run a marathon and it took all her strength to enter the hotel and ask for his room number. The hotel lift seemed to take forever to finally reach the third floor. She took a deep breath and knocked at the door. Nicky vaguely heard him say to come in.
“Hey, Miss England. I thought I was under strict instructions: Dinner on...

JL Salter is talking Greenland and his new book

Today I have the pleasure to introduce you to Astraea Press author JL Salter. He’s recently released his novel The Overnighter’s Secrets and is currently busy “blogging” away in this “web world”.  Through FB and his very interesting posts on his website he shares with other Authors, I’ve become to appreciate Jeff’s knowledge, but also his witty nature. So there’s no doubt in my mind, that his new novel is well worth the read – but I’ve decided to dig a little bit deeper into Jeff’s past!...

I interviewed Matt Goss :-)

So this has nothing to do with books and reading, but was quite exciting for me nonetheless!

A few weeks back I interviewed Matt Goss, former front man of the 1980s Band Bros, and now very successful performer at Caesar Palace in Las Vegas .
He's a charmer and a true inspiration. I wish him well with his soon-to-be released new CD and hope that his plans to come to Australia this year will eventuate.

I wonder who I can interview next ? Any authors out there who dare ? :-)

Review for "Journey to Her Dreams"

Review by Frank Nolan, 99.9 VoiceFM



Ballarat writer Iris Blobel’s first book was titled Sweet Dreams Miss England and was set in London and Dublin. She returns to the subject of dreams in her recently published second novel Journey To Her Dreams. The story is set in two small islands – Tasmania and Ireland- and involves the lives of two young women. Hollie lives with her father on a farm near Launceston while Sam lives in Dublin. A recurrent, disturbing dream inspires Hollie to visit Ireland and the two women meet in extraordinary circumstances, with momentous effect on both of their lives.
A cleverly constructed plot, believable characters and lucid writing make Journey to Her Dreams enjoyable romantic fiction reading. It is available now as an e-book, and will apppear shortly in paperback.
