(3.5/5) This biographical, historical, women’s fiction novel is about the woman who loved the prolific Jack London, Charmian. Overshadowed by her famous husband, with her debut novel “The Secret Life of Mrs. London,” Rebecca Rosenberg brings her front and center. Take a look at my review of this novel here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/06/27/an-almost-famous-woman/

Scary tale of what happens during a flu epidemic. Real-life characters you love, hate, and look for under your bed. I have read this novel numerous times and it never gets old. (0 more)

This is not a typical Stephen King novel. It felt more like Patterson.

My favorite novel of all time.
"Ender's Game" is my favorite novel ever. I have read it at least a dozen times and have purchased approximately 10 copies, mostly to give away to people.

Considering my first STP novel was Night Watch, this was a beautiful introduction to Vimes and Co. It really sat well with him, and had just about ever facet of a good action movie found in a novel.

"This novel deserves its place on my desert island for how subtle it is, how moving. There is a lightness to its artfulness that deserves reading and rereading. I adore this novel about vision, and film, and women."
