Hello Everyone! I chose the picture posted above because it reminds me of reading to my daughter Mareena when she was little. Every afternoon until she was about eight or nine years old, we would take one of her books that she wanted to read or that she was reading and we would curl up together on my big bed.
We would spend an hour or so reading a chapter of her book, and then take a nap together. Her absolutely favorite author at that time was an English author named Enid Blyton. Ahh, nice memories...
My picks for ‘Books of the Month’ will be decidedly more adult these days, but they will be from almost any genre. October's Book of the Month is:
The Brownstone by Ken Eulo
Published as: The Brownstone in September 1980
Publisher: Pocket
Birth Name: Ken Eulo
Born: 17 November 1939 in Newark, New Jersey
Canonical Name: Ken Eulo
Pseudonyms: None
This will be a slightly different Book of the Month post for me because I didn’t actually finish reading the book that I’m reviewing. The Brownstone by Ken Eulo would have been the twenty-fifth book that I’d have read in 2017. I have had this book on my TBR shelf since October 5, 2015 and started reading it October 2, 2017. I quit reading it on October 18, 2017 - after sixteen days.
The book was not all that bad, actually - the plot just reminded me a little too much of Rosemary’s Baby by Ira Levin, which I read over three days in July of 2011. I sent this book off to another good home on May 19, 2018.
Till we Meet Again, Glow Brightly as Moonlight

Hello and welcome to my blog. I'm a newbie as far as book blogging goes, having been blogging at my daughter's blog for only about two and a half years. Now it's time for me to get my feet wet on my own. Please be gentle with this blogger. Love to hear from you all. Have a great day! :)
