Book Recommendation: Wrong Place, Wrong Time

Not too long ago I posted about two books by Anthony Horowitz (Magpie Murders and Moonflower Murders) which were truly unique in that there was a book within a book in each one. The whole idea of a murder mystery connecting with another murder mystery story was such an interesting concept. The stories were very … Continue reading Book Recommendation: Wrong Place, Wrong Time →

Another Good Read: This Time Tomorrow

It's been fun to … Continue reading Another Good Read: This Time Tomorrow →

Thoughts on “The Maid”

I have an account on Goodreads. If you are looking for a book, they have many lists that you can browse.

In case you missed it, here is the Goodreads "tease" about the book: Here is the summary from Goodreads: Eight ordinary people. One extraordinary choice.It seems like any other day. You wake up, pour a cup of coffee, … Continue reading Thoughts on The Measure →

My Nose is in a Book

This is sad. The recent American Reading Habits Survey showed that over 50% of adults had not finished a book (printed or digital - no audiobooks) in the past year. The data also show that a quarter of the same adults have not read a full book in 1 or 2 years, while 11% more … Continue reading My Nose is in a Book →
