Excellent!!!
Just a place where people can share their book reviews posted online, connect with other book reviewers, and for authors to submit books for a review.
Recent PostsI've been shying away from books recently that include lots of descriptive passages. Why? I guess I have been spoiling myself with books that have a little more action. I'm still in the middle of Up Island, and when I picked it up last night I delved...
While I was on a short hiatus from work last week, I finally picked up a book again! I'm still in the middle of Anne River Siddons' Up Island. So far, it's a pretty good book, but a lot different than Outer Banks. Instead of a love story/suspense wit...
I'm not the type of person that gets excited about forthcoming books, but there is one book on the immediate horizon that I cannot wait to read. It's The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown. I will admit that I have not read The Da Vinci Code or its sequel, but...
When I think of book clubs, I always get the picture of middle-aged housewives in 1960s fashions sitting around the living room, eating finger sandwiches and drinking iced tea. That's such a stereotype about book clubs that I saw everywhere as a kid....

Book reviews of recently published books
My Pal Valentine by Heather MacLeod http://www.publishedauthors.net/heathermacleod/index.html
This short book available in hardcover and softcover can be read in 1 or 2 sittings and will keep you turning the pages wanting more. The story follows the life of a chocolate lab from day one meeting her caregiver throughout her entire life. Very easy read and is great for both adults and children as there is no violence or inappropriate language, just the true life adventures of the author's dog Valentine .. If you like dogs or stories about dogs (or animals in general), you will like this book.
The book is also available on amazon.com as well as the authors web site above.
Hopefully this author will write some more books soon!
