- Latest Review: "Adventures in space & fiction fantasy" by Robin G Howard
Several weeks ago, I discovered Another Kingdom by, I think, Paul Kearney. It is set on a farm in 1960s Ireland AND in a mythical realm that you can access through portals such as fairy rings. This is exactly my kind of thing, and it's VERY well-written to boot. I actually had to take it back to the library without finishing it so that I could function optimally. (I am a Christian, and in addition to making me neglect my other duties, I was neglecting prayer and my spiritual life was suffering.) I keep telling myself I can check it out again, but the time never seems to be right. Maybe when I know I will have a day off or a travel day.

half an hour later I walk back in the house and my kid asks what I was doing out there...the dogs were probably throwing themselves at the front window to get to Mommy...just half an hour of quiet with a good read...

- Latest Review: If I Only Knew by Kim Simmons
If the book is so good I walk around reading it even when I'm making my breakfast. as if I couldn't miss the next word
“there have been so many times
i have seen a man wanting to weep
but
instead
beat his heart until it was unconscious.
