    These are my April 2022 book reviews. I had high hopes that in April I would be able to read two books a week. Although I came very close, I did not achieve the goal I set for myself. I still got through seven books. That is pretty respectable, if I may say […]

Still drudging through that collection of short stories I started back in October, I must say I’m really not loving it. I’m […]

  These are my November 2021 book reviews. A week late posting but with the holidays approaching, I’ve been a little busier than anticipated.
