Frankie had high hopes for his twenty-year high school reunion. It did not go his way. Embarrassed, drunk, and on his way back somewhere, anywhere, Frankie's compelled toward a place he hasn't though Read more of this blog post »

| Just a brutal read. I don’t mean in quality. If you’re looking for a happy story, I’d say stop around page 3. Otherwise, you’re taking a journey with 100 teenagers that is full of pain, torment, torture, and death. The Long Walk is a snapshot of a fa ...more | |

| I quite enjoyed this. We need more Dunk and Egg! Unfortunately, George just has to live forever so we can more of this wonderful world he’s created. Them’s the breaks. | |

Engrossing, lived in. Kinda fizzled after the emotional high point. " |

"Another clever collection of mostly single-panel comics from Tom Gauld. Imagine New Yorker cartoons with a sillier, science-r bent, and you'd have what's in this collection.
I always enjoy Gauld's work, but his recent collections seem a little more r" Read more of this review » |

| Nothing necessarily new in Harris’ argument, but man is he fun to read. Not as snarky as Hitch (who could be?!), Harris is a master of constructing a checkmate sentence. | |

| You might be inclined to throw this away as a cheap, lurid, tawdry, and overly explicit noir with too much graphic sex. You’d be wrong. There comes a point in this book where you realize that you are in the hands of a master and that nothing is waste ...more | |

I enjoyed the hell out of this. Frankie Machine might be the last honorable criminal left. A man out of time, literally and figuratively. A man who outgrew and left “the life” behind him until the ghosts of his past return to haunt him once again. Thi ...more |

Desert Star (Renée Ballard, #5; Harry Bosch, #24; Harry Bosch Universe, #37)
by Michael Connelly (Goodreads Author) |

The best of the Renee Ballard series thus far, but let’s be honest, this is a Harry Bosch novel. Ballard is Bosch’s supporting character here, not the other way around, as this offshoot series has tried (and largely failed) to establish. It’s nothing ...more |

What’s so great here as a giant Winslow fan is seeing the development of a style and voice that Winslow would perfect in his novels to come. It’s all here, the building blocks of techniques that would grow into Power of The Dog, The Force, etc. This ...more |

“The Hero Path
We have not even to risk the adventure alone
for the heroes of all time have gone before us.
The labyrinth is thoroughly known ...
we have only to follow the thread of the hero path.
And where we had thought to find an abomination
we shall find a God.
And where we had thought to slay another
we shall slay ourselves.
Where we had thought to travel outwards
we shall come to the center of our own existence.
And where we had thought to be alone
we shall be with all the world.”
