Bronson Pincot and Stephen King are a match made in Heaven!

Revisado: 12-23-24

The Eyes of the Dragon has always been one of my favorite books, and Mr. Pincot brought it to life! Bravo!

Holly is a home run

Revisado: 12-11-23

Holly isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, but this story is captivating. The premise is eerily simple yet compelling. A must read for every King fan!

Great story

Revisado: 10-14-23

This story really had me hooked. There were great characters, an intriguing story, and “wildlings!” I couldn’t put it down. Glad I used a credit to buy this book. I’ll probably check out other books by this author.

Odd all the way

Revisado: 10-10-23

Odd Thomas is such a fun read. The story is a great combination: supernatural, murder mystery, love story, and good ol’ fashioned page turner. This was the original, “I see dead people…” (actually I’m sure that award goes to some Greek author, but eh). This is an entertaining book that I’ve read, but since it was our book club’s choice for October I grabbed the audio. I’m glad I did. David Aaron Baker did a great job.

Better than the last

Revisado: 06-21-23

The third book was much better than the second book, but not quite as good as the first. Reminded me of a Star Trek episode.

King is King of Writing

Revisado: 10-12-20

“Writing is magic,” is probably one of my favorite quotes from this book because that sums up how beautiful writing can be. This isn’t a nuts and bolts book on how to write. It is a book of how Stephen King writes. What’s great about that is, many of his nuts and bolts may actually help you. It’s positive, tells you what he likes, doesn’t like, and how his babysitter would sit on him and fart. Yeah, that actually happened. I loved this book, and if you are a Stephen King fan or would like to learn how to explore writing (reading and writing a lot helps), you really should buy this book. I’m off to purchase a hard copy!

Great insight

Revisado: 07-22-20

Mary L. Trump PhD does a great job analyzing her uncle, his history, and why he behaves the way he does. I can see why he tried to get it blocked, but honestly the only people who will read this and take it as fact are those who already know he’s damaged. His base, if they do read this, will think it’s a book of sour grapes. Should Mary and Fritz have gotten their fair share? I think so, but that’s my opinion. Since I’m not a multimillionaire/billionaire like her grandparents, my opinion doesn’t matter. I hope this book brings some light to an otherwise dark place in our history.

Wonderful story, superb narrator

Revisado: 06-26-20

This was my first book by this author, and I am so glad I purchased it. Nancy Wu was brilliant as the narrator; she brought Laila Ibrahim’s words to life. I didn’t have a lot of background knowledge about this time period for the Chinese immigration, so I found this story interesting. I plan to find out more, as I think it’s important to learn where we came from. I loved how the author weaved historically accurate facts throughout her story (the questioning on Angel Island, people memorizing facts, and people buying paperwork to bring family from China illegally) with some of the mysticism (ghosts, praying to ancestors, and leaving offerings). This was just a beautiful story that mixed both the traditional as well as the modern Chinese culture turn of the century Chinese-Americans faced.
