The copy I read was an ebook copy that I got from my library. I chose it because it fit a ‘cheese’Continue reading “Truth or Beard – Book Review – No Spoilers”

Took a break…

I haven’t posted anything for days. I think five days but honestly, I just don’t know. I just didn’t feel like it. Ever have one of those days… or two… or whatever… when you just feel meh. You don’t really have the motivation to do anything. That was me. Early on in the quarantine/coronavirus pandemic,Continue reading “Took a break…”

I knew of her name, butContinue reading “Author Spotlight: Octavia E Butler”

It’s the little things…

It’s amazing to me how something small can make someone so happy. For my husband, right now anyway, it’s golf balls. he was a little down this morning due to back pain and running out of golf balls to hit out of our back yard. By the end of the day, he was ecstatic. WeContinue reading “It’s the little things…”
