One Careless Moment by Dave Hugelschaffer My rating: 2 of 5 stars The back story made the first book in the series interesting, and though there was a bit of an emotional disconnect between reader and characters, the emotionality of the back story gave the book a little bit of depth. That back story isn’t…

I occasionally write a review of a book I’ve read. These are those reviews.
Review: Day into Night
Day into Night by Dave Hugelschaffer My rating: 4 of 5 stars I’m not exactly sure how to rate this book. This is definitely one of those times when half stars would come in handy! Perhaps it’s more 3.5 than 4… I don’t remember how I ended up with this ebook in my Kobo app,…
Review: Die with Me
Die with Me by Elena Forbes My rating: 3 of 5 stars I downloaded this to my Kobo app well over a year ago and never got around to reading it. Ebooks are way too easy to buy, and so you accumulate a bunch and then end up forgetting about the ones not read right…
Review: Fatal Remedies
Fatal Remedies by Donna Leon My rating: 4 of 5 stars The last couple of Brunetti mysteries I’d read were depressingly pessimistic. But this one broke that cycle. I like my books not to be so “realistic” as some of this series is. Reading is supposed to be an escape sometimes, especially when reading mysteries,…
Review: Odd Apocalypse
Odd Apocalypse by Dean Koontz My rating: 3 of 5 stars Odd Thomas is a likable character.

This book in…
Review: A Body in the Backyard
A Body in the Backyard by Elizabeth Spann Craig My rating: 3 of 5 stars I won this book in an #indiechat giveaway on Twitter, and I was pleased as punch because it’s been awhile since I’d read a cosy mystery, and my brain felt in need of this kind of comfy book. A Body…
Review: A Warrior’s Tale
A Warrior’s Tale by L.T. Suzuki My rating: 4 of 5 stars I won this book in a giveaway. I don’t usually read fantasy but thought it was time I tried a new genre and read an author I’m not familiar with. Spreading my book wings, so to speak. Because of my reading problems from…
Review: Time and Space
Time and Space by Shireen Jeejeebhoy My rating: 0 of 5 stars My second novel, officially launching on June 4th! I had a blast writing this book, and I hope you will enjoy reading it. As per usual, I don’t rate my own books. But I hope you will! View all my reviews
Review: The Abbey
The Abbey by Chris Culver My rating: 2 of 5 stars As the hover text over two stars says: it was okay. It actually had a really interesting idea going in, the idea of a Muslim detective in a city no one usually associates with fictional settings. The setting was okay. But it could’ve been…
