This or that Tuesday Shawshank, December 22, 2020December 22, 2020 This one is also a fun one, forcing me to choose this or that. Sometimes I can choose, sometimes I can’t. It’s fun to figure out when I can or can’t. So let’s not wait for it. Let’s get this party started. It’ll be lit, as the kids say these days. Trilogy or book series of 10+ books? Why not both? Here’s where I can’t choose. I loved the Lord of the Rings trilogy, and my favourite book series would be the Dresden Files. I’m happy with both. But here’s the real question, what ever happened to just simple stand alone books? Why does every new book have to be part of a series? Would you want to own a bookstore or have a large personal library? Is the bookstore a small but cozy store that you can just walk up and down the aisles, or am I like a manager at a Barnes and Noble? If it’s a small but cozy store. I’d be happy to own it. If it’s a manager position at B&N, no thanks it’s like a toy store that carries some books. What book would you like to see under the tree this year? I’d be pretty happy with any book under the tree and I’ll probably get one. But there’s no tree here. We’re the only house on this corner of the block with no Christmas lights. It doesn’t even feel like Christmas here. But anyways, back to the question. I’d like to get The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle – Agatha Christie meets Groundhog Day. Until next time book nerds!

Lockup Library The creaking of the boards on the weathered bow August 21, 2020 Tiny town is a weird place. At noon every day, an air raid siren goes off. It’s to tell everyone to close up shop for either a half or a full hour to take lunch. I’ve now learned when I go to the post office after lunch, I’m picking up… Read More
Lockup Library Looking back – a year ago September 4, 2021 So Crystal installed a way back machine on the site when I hit 365 days of posts, and yesterday I saw a book post from last year asking what 3 books that I would bring if I was marooned on a deserted island. Last year, I said I’d bring: Twilight…. Read More
Lockup Library So it goes August 28, 2020 Welcome back, friends. I’m going to try and do two reviews in one, and to try and remember the books because it’s been a while since I’ve read these books. And they are great books. Good use of dead trees. So it goes. Slaughterhouse-Five or the Children’s Crusade: A Duty-Dance… Read More
