“Children of the Revolution” by Peter Robinson Book Review
Children of the Revolution by Peter Robinson My rating: 5 of 5 stars When it comes to British mysteries, I am quite warm-hearted towards old-fashioned inspector novels that are complex, clever, and gripping. This book is indeed all of that and more. The more I read, the more I couldn’t put the novel down. I found myself puzzling over the […] -
Goddess Fish: “Dating Cary Grant” by Emelle Gamble Book Review/Giveaway (Ends 5/23) WW
DATING CARY GRANT by Emelle Gamble My rating: 5 of 5 stars I absolutely adore old movies, and I agreed to read this book based solely on the title. When I began reading the book, I wasn’t sure what I would find. Thankfully, there were no bedroom scenes (only implied between married couples), but I will warn you–there is some […] -
“A Chance at Love” by Karolyn James Book Review
A Chance at Love: A Billionaire Romance by Karolyn James My rating: 3 of 5 stars Romance books are often “hit or miss” when it comes to my tastes, and this doubly true when it comes to contemporary romances. All too often, the story is mundane, and the characters are two-dimensional. And let’s not even discuss the “happily ever after.” […] -

Red Positivity Bracelet Set Review
Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial. As far as I am concerned, there is way too much negativity in this world today! Every time I turn on the news, I hear very few happy, positive stories. I hear sadness, negativity, pessimism, and people who live their lives with the “cup half empty.” And although I pride […] -

“The Man Who Became Frankenstein’s Monster” by Robert Daicy Book Review
The Man Who Became Frankenstein’s Monster by Robert Daicy My rating: 5 of 5 stars In college, I had the prodigious honor of reading Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein.” At this moment, I look back at that time over ten years ago, and I discover I have never forgotten the experience of reading this incredible classic. When I read the title of […] -
“Carolina Isle” by Jude Deveraux Book Review (Just For Fun Reading Challenge)
Carolina Isle by Jude Deveraux My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is my April “Just For Fun Book,” and most of up lived up to my expectations. The initial premise of this story was quite riveting.
