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, September 23, 2016
September 23rd and at least on the calendar, fall has arrived. It's hard to tell here in North Carolina where the temperatures are still hitting 90 with high humidity. Still, we had a cloudy rainy day yesterday and I pulled out the crock pot and made a pork roast while spending the day reading and watching tv. Monday I hope to make the first soup of autumn. The new fall tv shows are arriving and it's always fun to check them out and guess which ones will make it. Then of course, there's football, the perfect sport. All of these are reasons I love fall the best of all. Here's the books that have made it through the door lately:
1. A House Without Windows, Nadia Hashimi, literary fiction, sent by publisher
2. Thursday's Children, Nicci French, mystery, sent by publisher
3. Friday On My Mind, Nicci French, mystery, sent by publisher
4. Escape Clause, John Sandford, mystery, sent by publisher
5. The Family Plot, Cherie Priest, fantasy/thriller, sent by publisher
6. Finders Keepers, Stephen King, horror, boomerang book (I gave this to my son, but he already had it so I took it home)
7. Mr. Mercedes, Stephen King, horror, boomerang book
8. Einstein's Beach House, Jacob Appel, anthology, sent by author
9. The Fortress, Danielle Trussoni, memoir, sent by publisher
10. A Shattered Empire, Mitchell Hogan, fantasy, sent by publisher
Here's what I'm reading:
1. The Last Days Of Magic, Mark Thompkins, hardback
2. Dissident Gardens, Jonathan Lethem, Kindle
3. The Lore Of The Evermen, James Maxwell, audio
4. The American Girl, Kate Horseley, paperback
5. The Bird Eater, Ania Ahlborn, audio
