    Thank You for A Million Dreams…

    January 30, 2018 / 3 Comments

    You might have clicked on this link expecting a review of the movie. I saw the movie in December and since then, I have been trying to sort through a review in my head. I knew I wanted to write something, but I realized that I don’t want to talk about the script and the music and the costumes. So I decided to just share from the heart. Be warned.  It’s long. It rambles a little. If you don’t make it to the end, no hard feelings. I just needed to do this. I went to go see The Greatest Showman when it had only been out for a week.…

    Review: Ash and Quill by Rachel Caine

    August 11, 2017 / No Comments

    Ash and Quill by Rachel Caine Genre: fantasy, suspense, adventure, drama Publisher: Berkley Date: July 11, 2017 What if a library was the master of everything? Imagine governments around the world all controlled by a library. The Great Library in fact.  But rather than dispensing knowledge and understanding, the Archivist is a dictator. Wisdom, free thought, invention and knowledge are ideas that are tamped down, held tight, and not released outside the control of the Great Library. In fact, the printing press is something that is so dangerous an idea, that men and women have died for just coming up with the idea of it. Under this tremendous tyranny and…

    But I have the right to…..

    March 16, 2017 / No Comments

    Okay, let me start here by saying that I hate confrontation. For most of the election season, I kept quiet on all topics. I tend to shy away from debate. Maybe I’m a people pleaser. Maybe I am just not strong enough on the debate side. I really don’t know. I just know that I usually shrink back into the corner on all things politics/debate/controversy. There’s been a real uptick in people who are involved in politics and registering their opinions. Social media has given everyone a platform to say what they like and believe. In many ways, this is a good thing. It’s given people a voice. But the…

    Review: The Masked City by Genevieve Cogman

    September 27, 2016 / No Comments

    Title:  The Masked City Author: Genevieve Cogman Genre: fantasy Publisher: Roc Date:  September 6, 2016 When you work for a massive library that transcends space and time, the word librarian doesn’t really mean what the image usually evokes. This is heavy duty spy work rather than simply checking books in and out. Irene and Kai are both fully aware of the dangers inherent in working for the library. They have seen death up close more often than anyone really should. And though Irene and Kai may have succeeded in their previous library adventures, that doesn’t mean life will settle back down into peaceful librarian status.  In fact, they are firmly in…

    Review: Curio by Evangeline Denmark

    July 5, 2016 / No Comments

    Title: Curio Author: Evangeline Denmark Genre: Steampunk, fiction, fantasy Publisher: Blink Date: January 5, 2016 Grey Haward is nothing spectacular. She lives every day just like everyone else around her. She avoids the Chemists. She takes her potion. She does what she’s told.  It’s all pretty boring. But there are just enough odd little flags here and there to let her know that her life is different. Her grandfather’s Curio shop has a cabinet that she never opens or cleans. It doesn’t seem out of sorts but the fact that it’s very specifically avoided and pointedly ignored gives her a hint there may be something different. One night, on the…

    Review: The Invisible Library by Genevieve Cogman

    June 8, 2016 / 1 Comment

    Title:  The Invisible Library Author: Genevieve Cogman Genre: fantasy Publisher: Roc Date:  June 14, 2016 Anyone who has read my reviews for a while knows that I love time travel. I was an Outlander reader from day one, I adore Doctor Who, and Quantum Leap was my introduction to the eccentricities of fandom. And obviously, I adore books as well! So when a book about an Invisible library and a time traveling librarian comes across my desk, it pretty much becomes a must read. Irene is a professional spy for the Library. Not A library. THE Library. This is a super-secret organization that travels through different realities gathering up and…
