Yes, we are coming up on the anniversary of the release of the first book I published, Looking Over Your Shoulder. Nine years ago, I waded into the independent publishing waters and launched the first of many (currently 88 released) books. It has been an interesting journey and I have learned a lot!

I am just finishing up Randall Wayne White’s Gone, the first book in his new Hannah Smith series. This is a difficult one for me to review. I am all for books that expose trafficking and predatory practices to the light of day, and inform people in an entertaining way, I had difficulty with the characters in this first in series.

This is a nice little cozy set in the Scottish Highlands.

I am currently reading Roast Mortem, book 9 in Cleo Coyle’s Coffeehouse Mystery series. Cleo Coyle is the pen name of award-winning author Alice Alfonsi, collaborating with her husband, Marc Cerasini. It is obvious from what I have read so far that they did plenty of research to get all of the details of the firefighters and coffee-making business right. Even as a non-coffee-drinker, you might find yourself salivating over the descriptions of the perfect cups of espresso, lattes, and every other variation on coffee that you can think of.
