Well, here we are, the final question in the 30 Days of Books list. It is, of course: Day 30 – Your favorite book of all time However can you choose such a thing? Certainly along the course of this exercise I’ve hit upon a few that would be very strong contenders: The Illearth War by Stephen…
Well, here we are. The penultimate question in the 30 Days of Books list and it’s sort of an interesting one: Day 29 – A book everyone hated but you liked I had thought about this subjectively for a while – what books did I like that everyone didn’t. I mean how do I know what the…
Okay – we are going to polish off this meme before the end of the month I swear! A declaration leads us to the next question in the 30 Days of Books list: Day 28 – Favorite Title I thought we weren’t supposed to judge books by their covers, or perhaps their catchy titles, but here goes.…

Back to childhood for the next day in the 30 Days of Books list: Day 21 – Favorite book from your childhood It’s probably no surprise at all to anyone that stops by here that I was a big reader as a kid. Loved to read. Still do, of course. As a kid, I read all kinds…
Hey, remember the 30 Days of Books meme that I was participating in? Yeah, me neither. Next up: Day 20: Favorite Romance Book Romance? Romance? Hrmmm… if you’ve spent any time reading about the books I review and discuss, you can tell that romances aren’t very high on my list. You’ll have to ask The Beloved if…
