Last week I gave a rave review for Divergent by Veronica Roth, and already I'm finished the second book in the series, Insurgent. Wow! What a stellar book!

Thursday Titles: Divergent
On the recommendation of a friend I read Divergent by Veronica Roth - and boy am I glad I did! I've read a lot of good books lately, but none of them has gripped me as tightly as this one.

Thursday Titles: The Spirit Well
Moving right through Stephen R. Lawhead's Bright Empires series and here's what I thought of Book 3: The Spirit Well. I've always loved Stephen R. Lawhead's books, and the Bright Empires series is another fantastic addition, if a bit of a departure from his usual strictly Celtic historical fare. Actually these books have more in… Continue reading Thursday Titles: The Spirit Well

Thursday Titles: A Dance with Dragons
So I just finished book 5 of A Song of Ice and Fire by George R. R. Martin.

Besides, even though I was done 4… Continue reading Thursday Titles: A Dance with Dragons
Writer Wednesday: 5 reasons to edit aloud

But reading to my kids has taught me a few things about good writing - things that probably should have been no-brainers. I'm thinking about adding… Continue reading Writer Wednesday: 5 reasons to edit aloud

Very recently I happily discovered that a book I love - The White Queen, by Philippa Gregory (author of The Other Boleyn Girl) - has been made into a BBC series. Imagine the joy!

Thursday Title: The Long Run
This is a debut novel by a good friend of mine who decided he'd try his hand at writing fiction ... and started with nanowrimo. (Is there anything this guy can't do?) Here's my take on his successful attempt. The Long Run by Trevor Morgan Jamie Simons is on the fast track to achieving his… Continue reading Thursday Title: The Long Run
