Book Review: Country Life In Georgia In The Days Of My Youth By Rebecca Latimer Felton

01-21-2026

Fascinating Look Into A Bygone Era From A Truly Remarkable Woman. Rebecca Latimer Felton was born in 1935 in DeKalb County, GA. She died in Cartersville, Ga - my own hometown - in 1930, just 53 years before my own birth. Her grandparents witnessed the American Revolution. Mine were children when she died - one of them a small child when Felton became the first female US Senator - and, in the same moment, the last formerly slave

Book Review: The Price Of Mercy By Emily Galvin Almanza

01-19-2026

Leftist Language Will Annoy Some Readers. Read This Anyway. Straight up, Galvin Almanza is absolutely a product of her time - in this case, "her time" being 2010s Harvard and Stanford and then abolitionist activism. So the words she chooses - "latinx", apologizing for being white, etc - are going to annoy at least some readers.

Book Review: The Great Shadow By Susan Wise Bauer

01-18-2026

Interesting Take On The Subject With Writing Reminiscent of Rachel Held Evans. I suspect Bauer would have admired much about the late great Evans, even if they didn't agree on every particular. Here, Bauer approaches the history of sickness the same way

More Mystery Than Romance, Still Technically Works As Both. This is one of those types of mysteries where the author tries to tap in to Agatha Christie or perhaps even the board game Clu

Book Review: The Naysayers By Liz Fenton And Lisa Steinke

01-10-2026

Moralistic Romance Goes Nearly As Heavy On Preaching As Romance. Maybe Moreso. First, there are a lot of similarities here to scifi that runs the gamut from literal child stories to ultra violent (depending on incarnation) scifi. Just the base set up here, you've got something that at times feels like t

Book Review: The Hunted By Steven Max Russo

01-07-2026

Solid Thriller Uses Guns Both Effectively And Not So Effectively. Seriously, this is one book that uses one particular gun *phenomenally* - one of the best uses I've ever seen of this particular gun, easily. But revealing that particular gun gets into spoiler territory.

Most of the rest of this tale is a really solid cat and mouse type thriller where danger lurks nearly behind every word and the action is of a suff

Book Review: The Memory Thief By Kayla Eaden

01-06-2026

Phenomenal Story. Absolutely HORRID Storytelling. In the hands of someone with the skills of a Roth (DIVERGENT) or a Collins (HUNGER GAMES) or a Rowling (HARRY POTTER) or a Dashner (MAZE RUNNER) or a Robinson (THE LAST HUNTER) or a Phillip
