This post has been sitting in my “Drafts” folder for years. I wanted to write a review of the whole series, but I realized I was never going to finish this book series because it wasn’t good, and after reading Marie Kondo’s book about decluttering your life, I knew that spending time on the Divergent … More Book Review: Divergent
Today is the the day I’ve been waiting for for months – the release of Amazon’s series based on The Man in the High Castle! My obsession with this as-yet unreleased series started several months ago… I’ve been listening to the Sword & Laser Podcast for about two and a half years, and it long been apparent that The … More Book Review: The Man in the High Castle
Last year my computer was displaying all the warning signs of giving up the ghost (it was quite old, and had been a constant companion for the better part of a decade, so no complaints here). And somehow in the process of updating my computer I’ve also added a lot of other new technology to … More Book Review: Perfect State
When one of my favorite authors mentioned that John M. Ford was one of his favorite authors, it became a mission of mine to track down as many of his (widely-out-of-print) books as I could. It has taken me years to track the majority of them down (greatly aided by the internet in recent years), but … More Book Review: The Princes of the Air
This review is coming several months after I’ve read Annihilation, the first installment ofJeff VanderMeer’s Southern Reach Trilogy, but I thought it was about time I got around to reviewing it. The books in this collection have been getting quite a bit of buzz and has won the 2014 Nebula for Best Novel, the 2014 … More Book Review: Annihilation
I’m months behind in writing my book reviews, and while I feel like I should finish my older reviews first, I couldn’t help but jump in to the current discussion surrounding Ernest Cline’s latest novel, Armada. Before I start my review, I feel the need to state that I am a huge Ready Player One fan. I … More Book Review: Armada
Ok, so I’ve gotten rather far behind in my book reviews, and I figure it’s about time to get caught up. Since it has been several months, this review won’t be quite as fresh as they normally are, but an old review is better than no review. So, the first book that my book club … More Book Review: The Sparrow
Although I haven’t been as good about posting to my blog this year as I have in the past, I didn’t want to skip my traditional end of the year wrap-up posts. It is crazy to think that this is the 5th year I’ll be doing this. It really doesn’t feel like I’ve been blogging … More Reading Round Up 2014
I’ve been trying to get all of my book reviews written for the books I’ve read this year. Then, to take a break, I read another book. Well, novella, technically, I suppose. Anyway, trying to get all the open-ended things closed up on the blog before heading into the new year, so appologies for a … More Book Review: Mitosis
Although I managed to finish several short books in an epic one-day reading binge shortly before Thanksgiving, I seem to have gotten quite far behind in reviewing them. The first book I managed to finish reading, but the last I’ve managed to review, was the November Sword & Laser book club choice – Do Androids … More Book Review: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
