The Sanctuary Sparrow – Ellis Peters

At Home, Reading / Megan

This Brother Cadfael book kicks off with a young juggler, hired to perform at the wedding of the local goldsmith’s son, being chased into the Abbey in front of a mob accusing him of having killed the goldsmith.   Lilliwin’s a slight young man, who does not look like a murder, so Brother Cadfael is […]

Dead Reckoning – Charlaine Harris

At Home, Reading / Megan

In contrast to my last vampire included read, book eleven in the Sookie Stackhouse series is getting a little long in the tooth.    I literally could care less about her relationship with Eric, Sam’s dating life leaves much to be desired, there better be a massive payoff to whatever she’s leading up to involving

Ripe: A Cook in the Orchard – Nigel Slater

At Home, Reading / Megan

I normally don’t read cookbooks, so you won’t often see them reviewed in my blog, but this is one of the rare exceptions.     The reason it’s readable is that the author is basing the book on the backyard garden he planted, and goes over what he’s done in that garden in loving detail.

Smoke and Ashes – Tanya Huff

At Home, Reading / Megan

This book really shouldn’t work.     It’s about a wizard, who happens to be a Trainee Assistant Director on a vampire show filming in Vancouver, and a Demon Convergence.   Oh, and it turns out their freelance stuntwoman is actually an immortal demon gate, so if she dies, the demongate will open, and her
