| I was given Ghost Dance Judgement by a friend. Now, I’ve read enough fantasy series in my life that I don’t have much of a problem coming in at the middle or end of a series figuring out what’s gone on before. And I didn’t have that problem with Ghos ...more | |

Kristy, I think YA could read them, but don't have a clue if that is the listed genre. I just thought it was a fantastic story. I hope you like it.

| This is meant as a compliment, truly it is. I’ve been missing Maeve Binchy and this book reminds me of her writing and stories. Not an adrenaline gusher, but a nice story of (mostly) nice people. It is predictable, but it is pleasantly so. The world ...more | |

| I borrowed this book with my Prime Reading membership. Not real sure what I expected, but Boy Howdy, was I pleasantly surprised. This book has it all—a nunnery, a spy, a resistance fighter, a widower, a want-to-be-ex-nun. Romance, obstacle, war. It’s ...more | |

| I love new worlds with different people, customs, etc. Believe me, this book is a whole new galaxy. The characters are developed, believable, and interesting. There are a few glitches, but very few, and I suspect it’s where something was cut/pasted a ...more | |

| Started this book a day before leaving on a journey. Since I was driving, I couldn’t read until I got to my destination. Trust me, it just isn’t couth to arrive at a friend’s and shut yourself away to finish reading a novel. I really wanted to, but I ...more | |

I started reading this book as my bedtime read. I want good stores that draw me in, and don’t give me nightmares. This book was perfect, until yesterday. Yesterday, I had to sit and finish it. I could not put it down until I knew how it ended. I loved ...more |

| I was 19 years old in 1972 when I watched “An Inalienable Right to Die.” It was the ninth episode of the fourth season of The Bold Ones: The New Doctors tv series. I have been a proponent of the individual right to die since then. Not just the right ...more | |

Begin Again: James Baldwin's America and Its Urgent Lessons for Our Own

| I’ve always considered myself fairly well-read. I read a pretty eclectic assortment of books. I don’t much care for straight Romance, Mathematics, Horror, or Spy genres, but I’ve been known to read in each of those now and then. So how did I never re ...more | |

| Full disclosure here, I know Diane Helentjaris, and read an early version of this novel. When the book came out, I reread it, and enjoyed it more. I’m a bit of a history buff and was thoroughly entranced by this story. An adult book, I would not hesi ...more | |
“Happiness is a choice. It is not always an easy one.”

― Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah
“In the time of your life, live—so that in that good time there shall be no ugliness or death for yourself or for any life your life touches. Seek goodness everywhere, and when it is found, bring it out of its hiding place and let it be free and unashamed.
Place in matter and in flesh the least of the values, for these are the things that hold death and must pass away. Discover in all things that which shines and is beyond corruption. Encourage virtue in whatever heart it may have been driven into secrecy and sorrow by the shame and terror of the world. Ignore the obvious, for it is unworthy of the clear eye and the kindly heart.
Be the inferior of no man, or of any men be superior. Remember that every man is a variation of yourself. No man's guilt is not yours, nor is any man's innocence a thing apart. Despise evil and ungodliness, but not men of ungodliness or evil. These, understand. Have no shame in being kindly and gentle but if the time comes in the time of your life to kill, kill and have no regret.
In the time of your life, live—so that in that wondrous time you shall not add to the misery and sorrow of the world, but shall smile to the infinite delight and mystery of it.”
― The Time Of Your Life

“My son loved working in the neighborhood," One-Fifteen's father claims. "He always wanted to make a difference in the lives there."
Funny. Slave masters thought they were making a difference in black people’s lives too. Saving them from their “wild African ways.” Same shit, different century. I wish people like them would stop thinking that people like me need saving.”
