Now that nice weather has FINALLY arrived, it's time to pick something good to read at the beach or outside on the deck or, well, anywhere really. And, as luck would have it, some bloggin' buddies have recently released interesting and entertaining books which I can highly recommend!
M. L. Madison of Riot Kitty has written a charming ebook for kids of all ages called The Adventures of Black Jack Pepper. Her brother Nik Houser did the illustrations so this book is a real family project. It's all about a little girl, her kid brother, their endlessly patient Dad and (HRH likes this part) their cat! The heroine has many fun misadventures involving lobsters, polar bears, plumbers, Santa Claus and the police. It's fast-paced and action-packed! Click here to go to its Amazon link.
If adult reading is more what you're after, G. B. Miller of Cedar's Mountain has written a novel that is a terrific blend of several genres -- sci-fi, fantasy, paranormal, erotica, mystery -- Line 21 has it all! Jeannie's basic dilemma is that she must pay off the family loan shark but she has no money. Then an unexpected business opportunity presents itself. Oh my goodness! Line 21 is available both in paperback and ebook versions -- click here to go to Amazon's paperback link.
Tomorrow -- a couple more good books!
I think I would like both!!
ReplyDeleteThanks,
I think I will go with "The Adventures of Black Jack Pepper"
ReplyDeletebut I will have to sit and read it under my duvet! Cos we are into winter (sob, sob)
Is that the same G B Miller that wrote Dead Man in the Stacks?
ReplyDeleteI've been reading alot lately, which I haven't done in awhile. I'm enjoying them.
Thanks for the recommendations. The first one looks adorable and second, hot. I want that body, but I'll take the money instead.

I don't know what to say about the cover of that book......
ReplyDeleteI have a problem with reading, lately. The minute I pick up a book, my eyes slowly go to sleep... Can't stay awake past the first 5 minutes. I guess that's a good thing/used to suffer from insomnia.
ReplyDeleteI'm planning on making lots of trips to the park this summer to do some reading.

ooh they both sound good!
ReplyDeleteI love the new look of your blog, Debra!!! It rock and rolls!! Your banner is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI also love seeing the support of fellow bloggers. What a great community we have. =)
These both sounds fun!!! I love the idea of reading a kids book. :)
ReplyDeleteThey both sound terrific. Summer reading is a must --- outdoors while listening to the sounds of nature!
ReplyDeleteLove that illustration!
Aren't you such a good blogger buddy to give us the heads up on other bloggers books.
ReplyDeleteI will check them both out.
Being partially blind in one eye and not able to see great with the other, you can't imagine how nice it is to read the new font you have chosen! Thank yew! Thank-yew! Looking forward to more book reviews!
ReplyDeleteThe grown up book looks like a must read for me- having said that, I now have Odin and childrens books are back on the shopping list again. I get scared to hear people refer to books as things of the past. Nothing is as good as a good book. Lisa x
ReplyDeleteI have alot of reading of books to do, but it won't happen in the warmer months, as I don't have the attention span. But if the book is tattooed on the back of a muscular boy....well then......
ReplyDeleteThanks Debra...always open to new reads!!
ReplyDeleteErotica... I will never forget when I was 14 and found one of those books at my grandpa's house and would hide in the library reading them as though I was committing a mortal sin. Ah fun days!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the shout-out! Very nice of you.
ReplyDeleteI love how you summed it up.
I think I should finish reading "This book is full of spiders" by David Wong first.
ReplyDeleteI'm in for a new read! I'm into crime lately.. :D And chick lit every now and then!
ReplyDeleteHow exciting...now for me to get a minute to read...I miss it so!!
ReplyDeleteDebra, many thanks for the shout out and I'm very glad that you've enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteTo the other commenter, I'm not that other writer, but that does sound like a good book to read.
I can't get that book cover image out of my head now! Guess that was the intention!
ReplyDeleteWOW! Such talented friends you have. Still enjoying your new blog look.
ReplyDelete**kisses** Deb

ReplyDeleteGreat suggestions ;o) Thank you ;o)
ReplyDeletewill check them out on your recommendations.
ReplyDeleteAll those genres together? Now, I must read Line 21!
ReplyDeleteI saw it and noticed something but did know what it was, now that you mentioned it, I love it!
