Beware of the blog

I haven't posted in a million years.
Goodreads has been purchased by Amazon & they are changing their book review policies.  I am backing up my reviews here so that I do not lose them.  They are intended as a simple record of my reading life.  If you read them and enjoy them, fine!  Just know that they are not really written with an audience in mind. Thanks!
