As
a librarian I'm frequently asked for recommendations
for good books to read. I'm a bit of a picky reader
and can't just pick up any book and be satisfied.
So the books I review here are only the books I consider
to be be outstanding.
I like a lot of realistic
fiction, biographies, classics and non-fiction but
I have science fiction and fantasy favorites also.
I'm
not going to review some obvious favorites like the
Harry Potter series and famous authors like Stephen
King, and Tom Clancy everyone should be familiar with
those. Rather I want to share good books both old
and new that perhaps readers are not as familiar with.
When possible
I include links to additional reviews for the books
I'm recommending and the author's website so you can
discern even more if that book is for you.
Happy
Reading, Bro. Luke
