Book Reviews

I have not done too many book reviews thus far. I have all kinds of plans for doing more and more book reviews here, but unfortunately time is the limiting factor. Unless there is some wealthy individual out there who would like to be my benefactor so I can quit my job and blog all day, you will have to settle for the posts I can manage to eek out on evenings and weekends… after I watch all my stories, of course.
