My reading inspiration comes from all sorts of sources. In the case of Jack Todd’s The Woman in Green, it’s because I follow the author on Twitter. It wasn’t his mystery writing that caught my attention. Rather, as a Montreal Canadiens fan, I find him to be one of the more restrained and well-thought out commenters on the team. Setting the Action One Christmas Eve 1913, a young woman shows up on the doorstep of a young doctor. She is…Continue readingThe Woman in Green, Jack Todd (August 2020)

Ian Rankin – The Impossible Dead Check out my review of A Song for the…Continue readingJuly 2019 Reading Round Up
If February was a poor month with only four books read, March is a bonanza with nine books read.

Given those two factors I decided I would break my round ups into March fiction and March non-fiction. The Strong Badger –…Continue readingMarch Fiction Reading Round Up
Well, this is another month where the book list is rather short. February is Annual Meeting time for the Parish with all that such meetings entail. Also, I wrote an article on Singleness and the Church for our Diocesan newspaper(what with February being the month for love and relationships). So once again there are only four books on the list for this month. On the plus side, I managed to finish Niall Ferguson’s, Kissinger, 1923 -1968, The Idealist. This book was heavy…Continue readingFebruary Reading Round Up 2019
