The Anybodies
written by N.E. Bode

This is a must for children's book lovers!  It mimics the styles of Roald Dahl, Lemony Snicket, Harry Potter, and many more, and beyond that, references them, too.  It features a girl who can bring elements out of the books they came from and a grandmother with a house literally made of books.  And the characters!  They are all quirky and lovable, and even the antagonist is given a chance to be explained.  Mad props to any book that can explain the effects of trauma on a person's ability to love.  Easily one of my new favorites.

Title: The IT Guy Author: Andi Burns Genre: Romantic Comedy Release Date: February 7, 2020 Blurb Elaine I love my job, I love my house, and I love my cat. What else do I need out of life? Hmmm...maybe the hot new IT guy from work. Those dimples...And don’t get me started on his forearms. But he’s way too young. Plus, office romance is never a good idea. Besides, my relationship track record is pitiful and the last thing I need is to get my heart broken again. So Simon Walker can take his charm, his Star Wars sheets, and his genius IQ and sweet talk some sweet young thing.  Simon Elaine Madigan is easily the most beautiful woman I’ve ever met. Hilarious. Sexy. Smart. And unfortunately, she’s also convinced herself that I’m way too young for, so she’s friend-zoned me.  Somehow I need to show her how grown up I really am. I need her to see that I’m ready to settle down--with her. It’s no easy task, but that doesn’t scare me. After all, I’m a techie, and cracking codes is what I ...

Review: Morgue: A Life in Death - Dr. Vincent DiMaio and Ron Franscell - May 2016 On the lunchbreaks at work, you can often find people reading and every now and again one of their books might catch your eye.  A work colleague of mine was reading Morgue: A Life if Death and it sounded interesting especially since lately I have been back on a death buzz as such after reading a few more mysteries and a non-fiction book written by a ME called Do My Cats Eat my Eyeballs ? which was questions about death.

I remembered hearing this case as it made the news in N...
