I LOVE Comments so please leave one! After I review the comments and make sure they are NOT SPAM - I HAVE BEEN BOMBARDED WITH SPAM - YOUR COMMENTS WILL BE PUBLISHED HERE! Thanks SO MUCH for your patience and for leaving a comment!!! Comments are ALWAYS welcomed, YET THEY WILL NOT LINK TO GOOGLE+ EITHER DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF SPAM!!! When I say this blog is experiencing SPAM, we are talking 30+ comments PER DAY that are spam! Please understand!! Again, thank you!!

This is strictly a Book Blog and is NOT an income-producing blog - it's my obsession with books!

I want to clarify this blog is a BOOK BLOG and only advertizes books! It does NOT advertize ANY products of ANY type, nor do I earn ANY income from this blog. This blog is done out of the pure LOVE I have for BOOKS!

A blog is a healthy creative outlet for anyone! I am Totally and Permanently Disabled (I am unable to work for an employer) due to a very rare neurological muscle disease I have called Stiff Person Syndrome, and this is one of the very FEW things I 'am' able to do 'when' I can, on my time, my terms!

This blog is for everyone who enjoys books, to enjoy them! Be careful, though, because I've found I have a BOOK OBSESSION! LOL!

With that being said, I do ask you do NOT advertize your products on this blog. They WILL BE DELETED! I think this IS ONLY FAIR.

Thank you.

My Ratings

I write HONEST "opinions" on ALL the books I read. I am NOT persuaded in ANY way as to 'how' I should rate a book. This is "my" rating system. These are 'my opinions', and 'mine alone' and IN the genres I like to read.

5 - Stars! - MASTERPIECE! BRAVO! Brilliant! TRULY the BEST OF THE BEST! Outstanding! Amazing! Divine! Excellent! CONGRATULATIONS TO THE AUTHOR! This is a MUST-READ, CAN'T PUT IT DOWN!

4.5 Stars! - Just short of being a Masterpiece! Wow! Excellent! GREAT! SUPERB! SO Good! Must-Read! Don't miss this! Just short of a masterpiece!

4 - Stars! - GREAT book! Excellent! Superb! Must-read! A DON'T MISS! You'll be talking about this one! Guaranteed!

3.5 Stars! - Enjoyable! It's better than average. It's NOT mediocre, and if it were polished up a bit more it 'could' be a 4!

3 - Stars! - It's okay. Medium. Average-50-50. Pleasant. - It's a 'Take it or Leave it" - you'll either like it or you won't.

2 - Stars! - UGH! I tried. This one is YOUR decision but I will most likely never finish it purposely and then I'll toss it out the window!

1-Star! - I was FORCED as a HOSTAGE by gun-point while in a 3rd world country prison!
