Not my usual sort of read, but it came to me by happenstance and it sounded interesting. It's a dramatized version of a true story. In 1909 a young Irish girl applies to be a nun and is shipped to a convent in Wagga Wagga, Australia. After twelve year ...more |

I did love Vic and Bob back in the day. This is Bob's first novel, though he did write his autobiography before this. It's not what I expected. I thought it would be funnier, crazier and more madcap. It's essentially a light-hearted crime mystery with ...more |

Linwood Barclay is on a very short list of authors who have never disappointed me, and after this book.... his name is STILL on that list. This novel takes the premise at the start of Speed with a madman messing with an elevator and expands it. Think ...more |

| I gave this author another go, even though I didn't much care for the last book of his I read. I heard this was his big franchise so I thought it might be better. It had some good ideas in the first part, but the second part really bored me and I gav ...more | |

Since The X-Files went off the air I've been starved for content from this beloved franchise. I've read the Kevin J. Anderson novels which range from OK (Ground Zero) to crap (Ruins). This anthology of short stories is much closer in tone to the show ...more |

I'm not the target audience for this book in any shape or form. I'm not a pre-teen, or a fan of fantasy fiction, but I've met the author and this has been on my TBR pile for years, so I finally got around to it. Young Felicity gets pulled into a magic ...more |

This is a much better book than that last Van Halen biography I read. Despite its title, this isn't just a collection of interviews with Eddie. The book tells the Van Halen story and then drops in an Eddie interview to flesh out the period the author ...more |

I saw the Amy Adams film first, but I loved the idea behind it so much that I wanted a deeper dive into this story. Much as I love this story and its execution, I can't help but feel that women, and mothers even more so, will relate to this book a lot ...more |

Like a lot of reviews I've seen online, I saw a video on YouTube on this 'phenomenon' and wasn't quite sure what to make of it. I thought the book would provide a deeper dive and give me more data to feed into my BS Detector [patent pending]. For thos ...more |

| Joe Hill's epic (762 pages) novel is about a global pandemic. This came out in 2016, so he was definitely seeing the signs on the horizon, but this virus is much worse than what had us all cowering in our homes poking anyone who came near our doors w ...more | |
