I dare say that I’m your basic, garden variety Book Worm. I love to read. You say it’s my passion and my hobby. My husband would laugh at how much I read. When I was in school, I would listen to the teacher but have a book on my lap reading.
Nowadays, my reading preferences range widely. I may read contemporary romances one day, and science fiction romances the next. Then there are the many cookbooks I check out as well.
I also post book tours as well. Why? How else am I going to find interesting books for my To-Be-Read pile!
Enjoy the posts, and hopefully you will find something like here as well.

Moonlight Murder Mystery Club: The Long Game
Some mornings start with coffee. This one started with a phone call she’d been dreading for two years. When Sage Holloway’s closest ally turns up dead — accident, say the police, murder, says everything she knows about him — she finally sees the full scope of what Margaret Ashworth…
San Francisco Noir
This anthology of “genuinely haunting noir fiction” set in the Golden City features new stories by Jim Nisbet, Alejandro Murguía, Michelle Tea and others (Publishers Weekly). Oscar Wilde once quipped that anyone who disappears is said to be seen in in San Francisco. With its famous fog, winding streets, and hazardously…
Moonlight Murder Mystery Club: Shadow’s Warning
