While I was waiting for Spenser, book number 36 at the library, also by Robert Parker, I decided to start another of his series. I have already read all the Jesse Stone and Sunny Randall books, and I like his style of writing. Appaloosa is a western town where the police Marshall has been shot…
I have had this book in my want to read list since April. It’s Lisa Marie’s words, but her daughter, Riley, had to finish it as Lisa passed away before it could be completed. Because of that, I sometimes had to stop reading it and think about whose words was I reading at that moment….
I got this book from Netgalley, so I can read and review it before it’s published. I was intrigued by this one as Curtis was a professional baseball player, but he was born with deafness. I have actually heard of him, and think it was when he played for the Detroit Tigers. As a baseball…
I was a bit skeptical about reading this book, as I wasn’t sure I would enjoy her story. I had had no clue her parent’s marriage was arranged. I had no clue who father was a spy in the Chinese government, and because of that, that is how her family was able to migrate to…

Timothy “Pumpsie” Strickland is…
This book has been in my Want to Read list since May in Goodreads. I have never watched That 70’s Show, but I knew of his character he played. I was intrigued and wanted to learn more about him. Unlike a lot of other memoirs I have read (and, there are a lot), his life…
I have had this book in my Want to Read list on Goodreads since May, so I was eager to read it. I knew of Eric Roberts (by way of Julia Roberts, his younger sister). I had no clue his parents were at one point in his early life co-founded the Atlanta Actors and Writers…
On Tuesday night, I finished reading this one to my 8-year-old son, and just like the previous 6, he really enjoyed it. He pays attention to the book, and several times throughout the book, he predicted what would happen. His favorite character was Morton, a tourist and a moron; and called a touron in the…
I have had this book in my Want To Read list on Goodreads since January of this year. I was really looking forward to this one, and when I finished it, it was MEH. Nothing excited happened to Sunny. It could just be I am so used to Spenser as a private investigator, and lots…
