Books I've Read

A generation starship gets to its destination, finds its already inhabited. Interesting story. One would have thought 10,000 years in the future a replacement for the f word would have been found, though.

Torie O'Shea investigates a murder concealed by her family.

Torie O'Shea deals with old documents, family trees, and a French connection.

How Women Rode The Bicycle To Freedom. A history of women on bicycles, with many great images.

As user Lala BooksandLala on GoodReads wrote "This was quite possibly the weirdest shit I've ever read." She only gave it two stars. I gave it four. I enjoyed reading and the surprise ending.

Very funny (in parts) story of the author's traumatic brain injury and his recovery (more or less) journey from it.

Fat professor guy loses weight, stops drinking, quits smoking, becomes local hot bicycle rider. Mostly a pretty good book, might read it again.

Friend Ada goes down the rabbit hole after Alice. Hard to read, but interesting anyway. Spent a LOT of time looking up words!

Quote: Oh well. Marmalade has to make its way in life, like the rest of us, she thought. -- pg. 24

Retake on the Cinderella tale. Surprise twist at end, at least I was surprised. A slow-moving story, but interesting.

Confusing story of Winifred Rudge who stops off in London at her cousin's place, run into...ghosts, maybe? It is all cleared up, finally, in a pretty good story. But it was a rough go, for me, for quite a while.

An orphan tooth fairy finds his way the world, while three children and their cousin wait out a MOBY storm for news of their parents.

Is it a sign of a good book when you want to read more? Or is it better to have a satisfying conclusion?

Interesting take on Oz. Sexual situations.

Pretty much what it says. San Diego City only. Lots of pictures and several maps.

Fourteen stories selected by Barry Malzberg. Some really good stuff here, except I really didn't care for the Philip K. Dick story.

Time travel, epidemic, life on the moon. Good story, I enjoyed it. Don't know about the paradox, though.

Five stories of the Swedish policeman Kurt Wallander. Pretty good stuff!

A Swedish poet is unwillingly coerced into hearing the stories of three illegal immigrants. While the stories are quite tragic, there is some humor in his tribulations.

A number of stories and poems of mystery and wierdness (fairies?) by classic authors like Poe, F. Scott Fitgerald, Thurber and Holmes, for example. I kinda skipped the poetry... Favorite story was The Murder Of George Washington, by Richard M Gordon.

Co-authored by Jim DeFelice. Demo Dick saves the Pope from gettin blown up. I like how many of the people he encounters say his first book was the best. With index.

The Rogue Warrier afield and afoot in Europe.
