A quick comment about my mini-book reviews. I posted them on Goodreads and was contacted by Danielle D. Smith, who was gracious about my not liking her book. We are now Goodreads friends, which is how it should be. I don't expect everyone to like my books either. But an honest review, that tells what was disliked, allows readers to decide if that will bother them or not.
And in case you are wondering, I give a 4 to books I will reread because I enjoyed them that much. I give a 1 to a book I finished, but didn't ever warm up to. Note that I would never put up a review of a badly-written book, because I would just delete it without finishing it, from my Kindle. So by definition, if I put up a review, it means it was good enough to finish. Maybe not my cup of tea, but still well-written.
