Books I've Read

Titus goes to the moon on school break and meets Violet. Their brain feeds are hacked at a nightclub, and Violet suffers feed degradation. A very sad story. Has more "f" words than a Rogue Warrier™ novel, too.

The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing, Traitor to the Nation #2.
More astonishing adventures of slave during the Revolutionary War, this time mostly in the South.

The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing, Traitor to the Nation #1. A story of the Revolutionary War from the point of view of a slave, mostly. Pretty good, I'm reading #2 right now!

First of the series. Very Space Opera. Sex interplay seems weird. On reading again, the writing seems stilted. Poor editing, or was the author going for some kind style?

A murder in San Francisco is investigated by a college professor. Good story!

A Project Gutenberg e-book. A guy, who was defeated during a war with the Terran Imperial Navy, is taken to some black hole sort-of-place where some aliens have magic-like powers, this place being where said guy is in love with one female alien, but then falls in love with the Terran captain lady, and then defeats the aliens and takes the captain back to his planet to get married and have babies. I didn't much care for this book.

Three stories about David Falkayn, a young trader in the Polesotecnic League. Good space opera.

How can this title not be in here already? I have read this quite a several times! Along with most of the rest of his books! I even have the reply from him to a letter I wrote. Anyway, I have enjoyed reading his stories of the adventures of his family, and this is one of my favorites, being about bicycling in Europe.

Mattie McCulloch is assigned to boss a big forest fire. Real good story about fighting forest fires and murder by a sex- crazed nutzo. I kept thinking it was different other people, must have been the misleading clues!

The author tells about her early life, mostly in a small town in Arkansas.

Space Opera with a little bit of everything: murder, incest, rape, wanton killing, child molestation... did I mention rape? Murder? I am SO looking forward to volume two!! Actually, it's a pretty good book, with a very uplifing love story that caused me to shed a little tear. But it IS pretty violent!

First off, I enjoyed reading this pretty much. Especially the violin stuff, and donuts! This was the #2 for the 2022 Hugo. I read some comments about the book that showed me some problematic areas I had not thought about.

A mom (with a boob job, mentioned many times)in Lake Elsinore runs a dating service, with some detecting on the side. I kept comparing it to the Evanovich's books.

Tom Swift Sr., #1. I guess there is a Tom Swift Sr. and later Tom Swift Jr. takes over with his own series. In this one Senior is just young Tom Swift, and he buys a motorcycle from an odd fellow who gives up learning to ride it. He has some adventures riding it around trying to catch the men who stole an invention from his father, whose name I forget.

Thriller involves Anna, an art expert, with a Van Gogh and murder. And there is an Romanian ex-gymnast hitwoman, too.! Did I mention the 9/11 backdrop?

Fourteen pretty darn good little stories. Some have an art background, and some are based on true events.

Twelve short stories, each with a "red herring" to discover, none which I could figure out. But the stories are still pretty good.

Lance continues the narrative of his career, marriage, and cancer survival. Does not include the Sheryl Crow era, that is probably in the next book.

Lance tells his story of cancer and winnnig his first Tour de France. Excellent and inspirational.

This was a really good book by the actress that portrayed Nellie on Little House On The Prairie. It's about her life, good and horrible, and what she made of it. Her mother was the voice of Sweet Polly on freakin' Underdog!!!
