I've mentioned how much I've enjoyed Declan Burkes books before, both Eightball Boogie. And The Big O. Were very amusing and entertaining books reminiscent of Raymond Chandler and full of wry humor. Well, as luck would have it, I'm happy to announce the coming eagerly awaited release of Declan's latest offering, Absolute Zero Cool. Which can be found here.

Hoping to possibly learn a few things as I work my through the endless "To be read" list.). Saturday, February 26, 2011. London Boulevard by Ken Bruen. I finished London Boulevard several days ago, and, as I'm writing this, I'm still not sure what to say. I enjoyed the book for the most part, and did find Mr. Bruen humorous. I really do like that dark Irish humor. The main thing I noticed however was how succinct he was. For instance, the description of a funeral:. As for what the story is about:. Is a b...

In my absence I can't say I've been reading a whole lot that would inspire me to write about it, mostly I've been re-reading things as a result of not being interested in reading something new. One of the exceptions would be Peter Temple's Shooting Star. Sitting on one of book shelves also. Back to Shooting Star. But are the two kidnappings connected? As Fra...

Inspirations: Gentlemen and Players by Joanne Harris

Hoping to possibly learn a few things as I work my through the endless "To be read" list.). Friday, July 8, 2011. Gentlemen and Players by Joanne Harris. I had never heard of Joanne Harris before picking up Gentlemen and Players. And I had no idea she had also written the ever popular Chocolat. So I didn't really know what to expect.
