This is a blog reviewing the latest book I have read along with the books I have self-published. Please feel free to follow along with my reading / writing journey.

Alex Delaware is back and Robin is along. This time a tropical not so paradise. The two working together make me think of Sherlock Holmes and Watson. This book felt a little more out there, not enough direct clues for you to really figure out what was going on made the ending feel forced. Would…

This is another Boxcar Children novel. This is a series I wish I would have read as a kid. The adventure was fun and the book is very short. The kids are off trying to solve a mystery which takes them into a deep adventure. The stories are light and fun but definitely for young…

This is a twisted tale of intrigue that will leave you wondering which direction to look. Once again Dr Alex Delaware is taking his calling to a whole new level. Crazy that some doctors don’t even make house calls, but Alex can solve a 20 year old murder and unravel a web woven deep through…

Alex Delaware is at it again. This time he is in the crosshairs. Robin is more of a fixture now. No more “Jame Bond-esque” trysts with the ample amount of attractive women. If you have read the series this far, you do not need to be sold on the author. This one does have a…

Alex Delaware has a new case and this time it revolves around a child who mysteriously keeps getting ill without any cause. The author does a good job at misdirect through most of the novel however I think I would have preferred seeing it go another direction just to see how the author would have…

This is the second book in the Looking Glass Wars series. The entertainment value remains high in this franchise as story line and pacing remain good. This book is an obvious builder for the next / conclusion book. That said there is still plenty going on. A new villain is introduced with sexism so overt…

This was the final installment of the series and I am not sure on book 12 if there is a good way to end it. This was as good as any, but I am still mixed at part 2 of the book and whether it was necessary. All that said I was a fitting end…

Second to last book in the series and is a builder. This is exactly what you would expect to prepare for the conclusion. However, it was paced enough to keep you reading and is forcing me to read the last book now and not after a few more. We are full circle in a lot…

This novel focuses on Harkat to answer the question of who was he. This book is a break from the war of the scars and instead focuses is in on Harkat and Daren. Even though, at this point in the progression, this seems irrelevant to the story arc, it was still a good read and…

This is the second book in the Boxcar Children series. It is a short book and the series is a classic. However, I never read them as a kid. They are a little Brady Bunch for me at this point, with with all the dark novels I’ve been reading it was a welcome change. If…
