Crooked Kingdom – Leigh Bardugo. Crooked Kingdom (Six of Crows #2) – Leigh Bardugo. I originally rated this book 4.5, but then I was thinking about exactly what it was that deducted half a star and I honestly couldn’t come up with a single thing I didn’t like about it. It was even better than the first one, I just loved it! So sad that this is the last one, and it is EXTREMELY RARE for me to say that about a series because I much prefer stand alone books usually! It had more action, more intrigue, more b...

Six of Crows – Leigh Bardugo. Six of Crows (Six of Crows #1). Ok, there is a lot of hype surrounding this one. I was a bit out of the loop as I hadn’t read any of Bardugo’s previous Grisha books, although the first one, “Shadow and Bone” has been on my to read list for a long time. However I did have one major problem with it though. I haven’t heard many other people complain about this, so it may just be me: But how the hell can these characters be so young? There is just NO WAY! The only other thing th...

How Publishing a Novel will Change your Life. April 13th, 2014. I read a blog post today by the debut novelist Mary Miller: Publishing a novel isn’t going to change your life. 8220;I don’t mean to say that publishing a novel isn’t awesome. It is. In so many ways. But it disheartens me to see my friends talk as though it will solve all of their problems and alter their lives completely when I know it won’t.”. I recently wrote about a few things I’ve learned. After a year of being published, but having rea...

Review: The Loney by Andrew M Hurley. February 12, 2017. February 12, 2017. In ‘The Loney’ an annual Easter pilgrimage is undertaken by a group of devout Catholics to a shrine in a desolate, seemingly God-forsaken ‘nowhere place’. The pilgrims take lodgings in a decrepit old house that used to be a sanatorium for terminally ill children. Both the house and the area hide unspeakable secrets. So do the local residents. February 6, 2017. My mother always told me that there was nothing a plaster could not cu...

Wendell Berry for Easter Week. April 1, 2016 at 10:38 am ( Books. I know I’ve been remiss about posting, but can’t resist sharing one of my favorite poems, quoted by one of my favorite bloggers:. I was tempted to read this whole poem for an Easter sermon. I didn’t, but I don’t know of a better sentiment for Easter week than Berry’s Practice resurrection. Manifesto: The Mad Farmer Liberation Front. Love the quick profit, the annual raise,. Vacation with pay. Want more. To know your neighbors and to die.
