Garbage Island by Fred Koehler (Book) Review
Full disclaimer, I do read kids’ books from time to time. Yes, I can read novels with fancy words no problems but especially since my son was born, I find myself diving back into books primarily of the middle school (8-12) age. I try to be a good parent and before I hand over to him a book (especially one that’s longer than a full description of Batman and his lineup of famous villains), I want to know what’s in it. But it’s way more than appropriate content, I want him to appreciate writing by finding great adventure. Today’s review, Garbage Island by Fred Koehler is one of those such books.

Let Love Rule by Lenny Kravitz with David Ritz (Book) Review
I remember first seeing this book on the shelves over at Target back in the fall of 2020. I kept thinking to myself I should buy that immediately. After all, Lenny is one of my favorite artists and I’ve always been interested in how he creates his music. Days turned into months, and it wasn’t until actually over two years later, I saw the book again. It was a bit lower in price (let’s face it, it’s hard to stomach thirty dollars for a hardcover) and I decided to take a chance to read about the life and times of one Lenny Kravitz. Let’s take a look.

Book Review of Street Freaks by Terry Brooks
Edit: About ten minutes after I wrote this post, I found the part in the widget script that I had to change. Wasn’t hard at all. I still might keep a list running in the blog too though, after all I want to progress the site towards my reviews and writing as we move forward and unfortunately away from Xbox backwards compatibility.
I am sure most of my loyal readers by now have seen my book reviews to the right. It’s interesting the way it works for Goodreads is that it will show the latest 12 books I’ve reviewed but it bases the date off when I add the book. So, for example I just finished Street Freaks but I added it to my Want to Read list on Goodreads over a year ago, so it won’t show up in the list. If I can figure out how to correct it, I certainly will. But maybe it would be just easier if I put the list up here in the blog and drop the side widget. A little more work for me, but you get it.
Anyway, here is the review, enjoy.
