Wow, sort of a bi-weekly thing at the minute. That’s massive for me seeing as how I normally do one of these Short Read Sunday posts, say I’ll keep it regular then not do it for six months. Here’s hoping I actually keep my word to myself, as this is really the best/easiest way for me…… Continue reading {Short Read Sunday} Cain Rose Up by Stephen King – A Book Review

My incredibly infrequent, (supposedly) weekly, post, ‘Short Read Sunday’, returns …and hopefully doesn’t vanish again for so long this time. My main problem is that I have been reading so many short story collections and not enough individual ones like this. I suppose I could simply break them apart like I did with the Stephen…… Continue reading Assassin by Keith McArdle – A Book Review {Short Read Sunday}
It’s been a heck of a while since I did one of these, but I have got an urge to read a few more shorts, so thought I’d crack a few more Short Read Sundays out.
