This has been on my Amazon WishList for a long time, so when it was finally available, I was glad to shell some money so I could read it. And, unlike a lot of other autobiographies I have read and reviewed this year, Henry, immediately gets right into how he got started and I liked…

Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin): A Memoir – by Sly Stone
Being a fan of 1960’s music, I was really interested to read Sly Stone’s autobiography. I did enjoy learning about how he became a musician and the stories behind the big hits. It’s also nice that I can ask Alexa to play a song after I read about it as I did that for his…
Robert B. Parker’s Blind Spot – by Reed Farrel Coleman
This is the 13th book in the Jesse Stone series, and the first by Reed Farrel Coleman. This one explores Jesse Stone’s baseball playing days and how one of his teammates ends up being a suspect in a murder case. Unlike all the other books, this one or maybe it’s Reed’s style, is a bite…
Surely You Can’t Be Serious: The True Story of Airplane! – by David Zucker, Jim Abrahams, Jerry Zucker
I wouldn’t call Airplane! my favorite comedy movie of all time, but it does rank in my top 10! Please don’t ask for this list now as I would really have to think about it. Ok, now I am thinking about it so here it goes: Animal House, Coming to America, Caddyshack, National Lampoon Vacation…
Making It So: A Memoir – by Patrick Stewart
I have had this book on my Amazon Wishlist since May 23, 2023, and couldn’t wait for it to be published. I knew of his life as Captain Picard from Star Trek: The Next Generation and Professor X from the X-Men movies. I am not by any means a fan of Star Trek but have…
Robert B. Parker’s Killing the Blues – by Michael Brandman
This is the 10th book in the Jesse Stone series, and the first by Michael Brandman after Robert Parker passed away. That is one of the reasons why I was interested in this series, as a few other authors have continued the series. I wanted to see if I could spot the difference between them,…
Jesse Stone – Books 5 to 9 – by Robert Parker
Sea Change (5) High Profile (6) Stanger in Paradise (7) Night and Day (8) Split Image (9)
Wrecker – by Carl Hiaasen
I have read most (if not all) of his other fiction books and liked them all very much. I have had this one in my Amazon Wishlist since March, and it finally was published a few days ago. And this one didn’t disappoint me at all. The main character goes by Wrecker, he is 15…
12 Months to Live – by James Patterson and Mike Lupica
James Patterson and Mike Lupica co-authored another book earlier this year, and I enjoyed that one. So, when I saw this one, I immediately threw it in my Amazon Wishlist and read it as soon as it was available. I didn’t even care what it was about! Jane Smith is a criminal defense attorney who…
Finding Me- by Viola Davis
I kind of knew who Viola Davis is, but I became more interested in her as she was in some of the Jesse Stone movies I have been watching lately. Man, her life growing up was hard as she witnessed verbal and sexual abuse of herself, her mother, and her sisters. But she persevered and…
