Something could happen in the Blink of an Eye

/ 3 minutes of reading / Leave a Comment

I recently read Blink of an Eye (Kendra Michaels Book 8) by Roy and Iris Johansen. I think this is the first Kendra Michaels book I have read, though I’m not 100% sure. There was enough back story to understand what was going on and the relationships that each character had with each other. Although there was some deeper stuff going on with Kendra and her flame that I was left wondering about and may have to go back a few books to figure out! Which is exactly how authors should pull you into their series!

Don’t go overboard with Devil’s Breath

/ 2 minutes of reading / Leave a Comment

Another new-to-me author this week. I am reading Devil’s Breath, the sixth book in G.M. Malliet’s Max Tudor Mystery series. Not having read the previous books in the series, I am a little confused as to why the police would involve a former-MI5-operative-turned-vicar in the murder of a film star aboard a yacht. But whatever it takes to get the sleuth into the plot, I guess!

A quirky book – Holy Orders

/ 2 minutes of reading / Leave a Comment

I don’t think that I have read anything by Benjamin Black before. Today I started on Holy Orders, book 6 in the Quirke series. A quirky (if I may say so) pathologist taking on the role of detective to find the culprit who murdered a friend of his daughter. The Quirke series has apparently been adapted for television, though I have never seen any of the episodes.

Writing a Novel in Markdown with Obsidian (70+ Books Later)

Why Markdown?
Markdown files are plain text, with a few added characters or symbols used to format it for conversation to HTML or other formats. Being plain text files, they are very small and not likely to become corrupted. Writing one scene or one chapter per file also keeps them very small. Since they are written in plain text, they can be edited with any text processor or word processor.

Reading Verses for the Dead

/ 2 minutes of reading / Leave a Comment

Verses for the Dead is book #18 in the Pendergast series by Preston & Child. If you have read any of the rest of the series, you know that Agent Pendergast (FBI) prefers to work on his own, but in this case he is paired up with a junior agent to “assist” him (ie. spy on him and report any rogue behaviour to their boss.) A serial killer is on the loose, and Pendergast is the only one who seems to have any idea how to pursue the investigation.

Giving thanks for books!

/ 1 minute of reading / Leave a Comment

There is so much to give thanks for, even in tough times. We had a week of challenges last week, but have been blessed in so many things. Showing gratitude for the good things and blessings in our life is important, so it is nice to have a day set apart to do so. (Even if you are not in the USA, you are probably aware of US Thanksgiving this week.)
