"After a few years of mercifully being ignored by everyone but the local press, the true-crime industrial complex had found Amanda. And as much as she did not want people to hear about her daughter's murder between adverts for mattresses and meal-delivery kits, it had already begun. And people wanted to speak to her. There'd be no escaping them now, the true-crime people. People like me, really."
Penance - Eliza Clark

For those of you wondering why I haven't posted a whole lot in the past few weeks, the cover above (or below) should say it all.  I am in the final edits on my latest short story collection "Tales of Victor Sierra" .  Thanks for those who have been patiently awaiting more Saying No or Nathan's Tales!  Hopefully once this is out of the way I will have better headspace for those efforts. amazon.com/dp/B0CGWB797S

Signed up for an online Hawthorne class through University of Missouri. Third time reading Scarlet Letter. Determined to get it this time. With his obsession with Puritans and grim view of American history, Hawthorne is an author for this moment.

Barnes & Noble - Beware the Woman|Hardcover

HEARTSTOPPING MICHIGAN GOTHIC builds on the loneliness of shattered families, the protective anxieties of pregnancy, and the harsh realities of the deep woods. Stunningly fresh and decidedly modern take on a classic genre. A MINUS

Barnes & Noble - King of the Armadillos: A Novel|Hardcover

LOVELY, UNIQUELY VOICED novel tells the story of Victor, a teenage emigré from China whose diagnosis of Hansen’s Disease (then known as leprosy) sends him to a government sanitarium in Louisiana. Beautiful writing, unforgettable characters. A MINUS

This is yet another entry into these books that I hesitate to say that I really enjoy, but the truth is that I do. I’m not sure why, but I really do enjoy them.

I’m only about 60 pages into this one, but it’s very good! I have a few more of these on my , but this one is shaping up to be one of the better ones!
