I love to read. I'm usually reading at least 3 books at a time. They're not all good... some are really bad. I have trouble not finishing books though. Now CBR has doubled down on that trouble, because I want to get credit for reading the bad ones too!

To my great surprise and delight, the dog lives!

May 24, 2017 by kfishgirl 1 Comment

So spoiler alert, there’s an awesome dog in this book, and he doesn’t die! To me, that is very important information to have when reading a book. If it’s not important to you, then I really don’t want to know you 😁. A dog dying in a book really sours the whole experience for me. This book is about a serial killer and rapist who everyone thinks is dead. However, obviously he’s not. His last victim survived months and months of rape and torture. She […]

My First Le Carre

May 19, 2017 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

So this book was originally published in the 1960’s I believe.  You can tell only a little bit in my opinion.  Obviously the technology is very dated, and the way of doing things is a little bit too.  It didn’t really bother me though.  I got caught up in the action and the stories.  George Smiley has a lot of stories. This is the first book where Smiley appears.  There’s apparently seven books with him as the main character.  I like him.  It’s really hard […]

All about Bunny Ears

May 8, 2017 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

This is book eight in the Alice in Deadland series.  It’s all about everyone’s favorite (including mine) character, Bunny Ears.  He remembered his name (Neil) at the end of the Crocodile book, and now he wants to figure out more about himself. This book is a little different than the rest, because Alice isn’t the main character.  Almost all of the previous books (except the one with the four short backstories – book two or three, I can’t remember) are told from Alice’s point of […]

More of that other Alice in Wonderland series I was reading… yeah I forgot about it too!

May 2, 2017 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

Ok so Phantoms of the North is book 6 in the Alice in Deadland series.  I put these two books together, because they’re short, and their stories are quite similar.  In Phantoms, everyone is safe and happy in Wonderland.  The Homeland (the USA) is sending over people and equipment to start large scale farming operations.  Things are going well.  And then Alice and one of her buddies finds a man while they’re out on patrol.  He’s beaten up and scared, and he tells them that […]

Go ask Alice, I think she’ll know…When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead

April 27, 2017 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

Okee dokee.  I feel like this keeps happening to me.  I thought this was the last book in the series, so I just kept reading from book one to book seven.  I got to the end and was like “um, what?”.  There are apparently at LEAST two books left.  That is not really a problem, but I wouldn’t have just kept mowing through the series if I knew it wasn’t finished! Anyway, this book is called Family.  Logically, I thought we’d learn more about Alice’s […]
