Welcome to Booksie's Blog! I write reviews of what I've read, some of which were books sent by publishers or authors. If you would like for me to read and review your book, please contact me. I'd love to have the chance to review for you although I don't usually read to deadlines. My email address is skirkland@triad.rr.com I can't accept everything but I do read and review everything I accept. I average about 10-12 reviews a month. I tend to favor physical books over ebooks for review.

Booksie's Shelves, January 13, 2016
2016 has been a disappointing reading year for me so far. Not that the books I'm reading are bad, but that it is almost impossible for me to read right now. I'm going through a major flareup of dry eyes and reading even 10 pages is sometimes challenging. If you've been wondering why there haven't been as many posts, that's the reason. I'm undergoing treatment so hopefully something will work soon. Here's what's come through the door:
1. The Infidel Stain, M.J. Carter, historical fiction/adventure, Vine review book
2. Cold Moon, Alexandra Sokoloff, mystery, sent by publisher
3. The Portable Vblen, Elizabeth McKenzie, literary fiction, Vine review book
4. We That Are Left, Clare Clark, historical fiction, Vine review book
5. Mothers, Tell Your Daughters, Bonnie Jo Campbell, anthology, Vine review book
6. Free Men, Katy Simpson Smith, suspense, Vine review book
7. Five Star Billionaire, Tash Aw, literary fiction, purchased
8. Where It Hurts, Reed Farrell Coleman, suspense, sent by publisher
9. The Wake, Paul Kingsnorth, historical fiction, purchased
When I can read, here's what I'm reading:
1. The Maid's Version, Daniel Woodrell, Kindle Fire
2. The Path Of The Storm, James Maxwell, Kindle Fire
3. Avenue Of Mysteries, John Irving, hardback
4. Seveneves, Neal Stevenson, hardback
5. Wait For Signs, Craig Johnson, paperback
6. The Empty Chair, Jeffrey Deaver, Kindle
7. Throne Jack, Katherine Harbour, audio
8. Mystery Walk, Robert McCammon, Kindle Fire
9. The Road To Little Dribbling, Bill Bryson, Kindle Fire
10. Lexicon, Max Barry, hardback
Happy Reading!
