I really don’t want to get into a religious discussion about these books quite yet, so I’m leaving my review short and to the point. I finished this book in a flash not only because the Left Behind series has been easy to read, but because it is filled with action from start to finish. [...]

Finished reading How to Write a Damn Good Novel this week. Damn good book! It’s a quick read that keeps your interest and is filled with great info for anyone writing a novel. Frey’s instruction on “damn good novel” writing centers around three elements of a good novel: character, conflict and conclusion. The manner in [...]

If you’re looking for a good horror novel, do not read this book!! If you’re looking for a teenage romance novel, you might like it. I will absolutely not read another book in this series. This book was boring and I can’t believe I actually suffered through the entire book. I just kept hoping that [...]

I’ve seen this movie more than once but not for a number of years. I came across it while searching for movies at the library and decided to take some time to watch it again. Here’s what the movie is about: “After a carnival comes to Green Town, the good citizens are compelled to follow [...]

Another typical collection of short horror stories–some good; some bad. There were a couple that stood out as unique and well written, which is why I think this book got such great reviews. Unfortunately, there were also a few that were poorly written, with many grammar errors. At times I wondered if anyone actually edited [...]

Again…I’ll say it. Stephen King…love his work or hate it. This time around, I LOVE IT!! I have been incredibly inspired by this book. King has given me a new outlook on completing Purloin, a novel of mine that I’ve been working on for five, yes 5, years. I guess five years isn’t so bad. [...]

I had a hard time getting into this movie because I started watching too critical of the science of making a space ship that could fly so close to the sun, not to mention all the other things they were attempting to do to restore the sun’s energy. Don’t do this if you decide to [...]

I LOVED THIS BOOK!! Have added it to my list of favorites on Shelfari. This is the first book I’ve read by Cormac McCarthy and he left me wanting to read more of his books. The road is one of the most emotion provoking novels I’ve read, bringing out few of the positive kind. While [...]

I watched 30 Days of Night because I loved the idea of vampires taking over a town in Alaska during 30 straight days of night. Unfortunately it fell short, primarily because they followed the typical Hollywood horror/thriller movie formula–bad guys come to town, bad guys kill the people, heroes fight bad guys and survive. What [...]

I’ve read one other novel by John Saul, many years ago, and I can’t seem to remember the title or the story line. After reading In the Dark of the Night, I know why I can’t remember the book. His writing is forgettable. In the Dark of the Night was a great idea that could [...]
