The Writer's LibraryNothing by Chance by Richard BachMy rating: 4 of 5 stars Unlike Richard Bach, I may never know the true freedom of flight. I used to think that flying was mainly commercial, that there was no way it was a hobby for anyone. Yet if you have the good fortune to fly a small, simple […]
Moriarty by Anthony HorowitzMy rating: 4 of 5 stars Internal screaming No, wait. Give me a moment. I’m not done yet. Screams more. What the heck did I just read? I’m afraid this review won’t do the book justice. This story is like a rollercoaster with twenty loops. I felt sick on it…. and I loved […]
The House of Silk: A Sherlock Holmes Novel by Anthony HorowitzMy rating: 5 of 5 stars I keep reading the preface in Martin Freeman’s voice now. Oh, God…A novel that takes a beloved character and puts a different twist on him/her can be tricky territory. The readers scrutinize the character and make sure it stands […]
Challenger Deep by Neal ShustermanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars I’m not an avid Neal Shusterman reader. The only other novel of his that I’m familiar with is Bruiser . I’ve read a couple of novels with mental illness as the main subject (one fiction, one memoir) and I can’t call myself an expert, but […]
Rules for a Knight by Ethan HawkeMy rating: 2 of 5 stars Well, I honestly do not know what to say… and unfortunately in this case, that’s not a good thing. I liked it, it was touching, but it didn’t blow me away like I expected it to. I wanted to learn something I hadn’t […]
I am floating in a golden sea of tears. You are beside me, the warmth of your hand in mine as the waves ripple and break above us. We are underwater, yet we can breathe. You turn to me and kiss me, stars swirling around us as the moon dives into the golden water. We […]
Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can’t Stop Talking by Susan CainMy rating: 5 of 5 stars I went into this knowing. Knowing and accepting that I am an introvert. While my mother enjoys going out and engaging in social situations, I count down until it’s time to go home. Not that […]
Who Censored Roger Rabbit? by Gary K. WolfMy rating: 4 of 5 stars Wolf weaves an extraordinarily interesting detective story here. I loved the constant twists and turns of the novel, how they built up to the unbelievable truth. It kept me guessing until the very end. My copy had a lot of errors, but […]
Full Circle: A Father’s Journey with a Transgender Child by Derry RundlettMy rating: 4 of 5 stars As a musician for a famous 1960’s pop group, my father claims to know a lot of renowned people. I take it all in stride; him knowing a music legend is no longer news to me! He first […]
Schizo by Nic SheffMy rating: 4 of 5 stars My first experience reading literature that had schizophrenia as its subject was January First by Michael Schofield. I cried. About two years ago, I read Tweak by Nic Sheff. I wept. Schizo is no different experience. Reading from Miles’ point of view, I fully believed everything […]
