I bought Liam Callanan’s Paris by the Book simply because he leaves in Wisconsin and I want to support local authors. Friends of mine also recommended his works. I enjoyed this book a lot. It is the story of a Leah, who’s husband disappears and the only clue he leaves is plane tickets to Paris. Intending … Continue reading Book Review Paris by the Book

Book Review- Harbach
The Art of Fielding by Chad Harbach I read this book because my wife bought it and it was sitting on the bookshelf. Even though I knew better I suspected it was sort of like the book The Catcher in the Wry by Bob Uecker. In other words, reading it was a random act. With … Continue reading Book Review- Harbach

I definitely felt for Tim, a man transported back to 1929 leaving his daughter to grow up without a parent. Especially when he has to face Charles, … Continue reading Dead Sure? A Book Review

My God-Given Right
Photo by Lechon Kirb on Unsplash Here is a statement from a gun wacko- it is my god fearing right to own a gun. My children will know how to handle and operate guns at a young age. I also believe that teachers if they want to should be able to carry at school. … Continue reading My God-Given Right
