This is the type of book that I don’t feel the need to “review”. So many others have, both short and long reviews, that my thoughts have already been covered. Good stuff.

Review: The Butterfly Garden
The Butterfly Garden by Dot Hutchison
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is not the type of book I would normally read. I almost stopped a few times because it was horrifying to me. It was a good story though, obviously, I gave it 5 stars. It just challenged me in a very personal way. I would definitely read another book by Dot Hutchison!

Review: Crimson Death
Crimson Death by Laurell K. Hamilton
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Too much sex. No… too much of the same stuff from the last 15 books. Each time the sex started I was able to easily skim over it all until it was over. That saved me from suffering through 1/3 of the book. The actual story, the parts where Anita just does her job as a Marshal/Necromancer/Vampire Queen, etc., is better in this book. Still not the same quality as the first books, but interesting still.
I won’t spend money next time around. I’ll wait for a library copy. Also, someone show Ms. Hamilton how to use a thesaurus.

Review: The Life We Bury
The Life We Bury by Allen Eskens
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I only read this book because it was given to me in a book exchange. I used one of my audible credits so I could listen as I read. Before the first chapter was over the Narrator had me thoroughly engrossed. He was so amazing, and the story was so interesting that I listened nonstop and finished it in one day.
The story is more than one type of story. It’s more than the story of Mr Iverson. It’s a story about perception. Perception of ourselves and each other, and the assumptions we make.
It’s a terrific book, excellent writing, and spot on narration. Read it, better still, listen to it.
