The Kill Call by Stephen Booth My rating: 0 of 5 stars This had the best ending I’ve read in ages from any author. It made me want to immediately start reading the next book in the series. Stephen Booth really hit the writing mojo with this book, after a few that were okay but…

Review: November of the Soul: The Enigma of Suicide
November of the Soul: The Enigma of Suicide by George Howe Colt My rating: 4 of 5 stars I bought this ebook as background reading for writing my latest novel during National Novel Writing Month. I’d hunted around for a comprehensive, well-written book on suicide, and this was it according to a few sources. It’s…

Concussion Is Brain Injury by Shireen Jeejeebhoy My rating: 0 of 5 stars As usual, I don’t rate my own work. I’m entirely unqualified to do so. But I hope you will rate and review it!! View all my reviews
Zebras Don’t Wear Overcoats — Take Two
I hated this upside down planet. The planet’s infrared light was beating down, no up, on my face as I walked along the ceiling-ground looking for my group, wondering how the blood wasn’t rushing into my head. I thirsted for water, for rain. A tree appeared in the distance. As I dragged myself closer, I…
Zebras Don’t Wear Overcoats: A Little Rational Holism Story
Zebras don’t wear overcoats. That’s what I thought when a Zebra clip-clopped towards me from the outer door wearing an olive drab waterproof hooded overcoat that draped down to his knees.

Review: Dying To Sin
Dying To Sin by Stephen Booth My rating: 3 of 5 stars Unlike previous books in the Cooper and Fry series, this book has a lot of Law & Order type preachiness in it aka informing reader of the state of a situation, in this case farming in the UK. Or maybe I just noticed…
Review: Odd Interlude #1
Odd Interlude #1 by Dean Koontz My rating: 4 of 5 stars This ebook is part one of three, really a novel cut into three to up the suspense (and profit) factor. I borrowed all three ebooks from the library: Odd Interlude #1, [b:Odd Interlude #2|15701491|Odd Interlude #2|Dean Koontz|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1340033125s/15701491.jpg|21361212], and [b:Odd Interlude #3|15701498|Odd Interlude #3|Dean…
Review: Light Thickens
Light Thickens by Ngaio Marsh My rating: 3 of 5 stars I read most of Marsh’s books a long, long time ago. So this was a reread. I seem to recall enjoying her books more than I do now. This is one for theatre buffs or Macbeth fans. The mystery is transparent. The whole thing…
Review: Odd Hours
Odd Hours by Dean Koontz My rating: 4 of 5 stars I don’t like horror. I don’t like horror movies, horror books, things that go creepy crawly in the night or black daytime, aiming for your life and limbs. Yet I like the Odd Thomas series. I don’t know why… I read this book awhile…
