Just started reading this after watching 'Narcos' on Netflix.





"Words are the heart of love."
Please leave a review if you do read my books... all to be found on good old Amazon

It isn't a popular history, nor is it an entirely scholarly work. That in-betweenness may or may not work for you, depending on what you're looking for.Will you be smarter at the end than you were at the beginning? Sure. Will you be able to read it on the beach at Varadero? Probably not. Three mojitos.
Read the full review here.



I love Jim Butcher - and Harry Dresden. Have you read Lila Bowen, yet? Her protagonist Nettie Lonesome isn't Harry, but she is really good at what she does.... First of the series is Wake of Vultures.

Full review at read that also
Set in Ukraine, this James bond meets Godfather kind of novel tells the tale of Mikhail Vorotavich , and contains politics and sex and espionage and violence and all what is required of an out and out thriller. Krasno puts more focus on unraveling the plot and let his characters set the atmosphere through their actions rather than go into tedious descriptions. This has made entire book crisp and give it a to the point feel.

Bonnye, I have not read her yet. I will look her up and possibly add her to my growing list of to-read books. Thank you for the suggestion! Dresden has been a joy to read. I have been blessed to read such incredible books the last year or so.







I NEED to read both of them. Spent weeks trying to de-clutter and got rid of two fairly small boxes of nicknacks to the second hand shop. I need to sort as I dust all this stuff!

In my review, I commented that it is mainly about living frugally and being less materialistic. It isn't really a guide to decluttering.
The one I read years ago and found helpful was Secret Of How To Win Freedom From Clutter


Also forgot to say, I posted reviews for all four books in the James Blish 'After Such Knowledge' omnibus edition.
Doctor Mirabilis
Black Easter
The Day After Judgement
A Case of Conscience


Now started The Scapegoat



ARC. Just finished! Stunning. Bring on Book Two, Mr. Dow.

Now reading: Plagued With Guilt. 99¢ Special

Now reading





I'm currently reading 1984 on my Kindle, listening to Strings on my PC, and still listening to The Witch With No Name on audio CD on the stereo in the bedroom (hence that one taking me so long; I listen to it only before bed).



I've just posted my review of the Cthulhu mythos themed anthology The Book of Cthulhu. There's quite a few story reprints here so might not offer as much for the experienced reader in the genre, but if you're just discovering the joys of Cthulhu then it's worth checking out:

I'm still reading 1984 on my Kindle though; hopefully will finnish it tonight or tomorrow.
