Birdlashes

Normally, I have a six hour break in the middle of my day where I come home, work, and nap.  Sometimes, I skip the work.  With classes ending very quickly, I needed to get a lot of work done today. I stayed on campus all day which made me feel very tired.  Mr. Sublet picked me up and I treated myself to some fresh fruit which are relatives of clementines; I cannot remember the exact name and I already misplaced the receipt.  Anyway, I love having the bright color in my apartment.

Today's site is from Tom, also known as Sonja's husband.  He does book reviews at birdlashes.  I always knew that he was smart and interesting because Sonja would not marry anything less. However, after reading his reviews, I think he is brilliant.  He has a thoughtful approach to reviewing books; he begins by giving you background on how it came into his hands and information on the genre.  If you are really lucky, he compares the current book to other works by the author. Plus, you get previews of what is coming up next.  It's like coming attractions for book reviews.

Hey! Wow, thanks for the shout-out! Sometimes I get lazy in my blogging, but reading your comments makes me want to pour myself into it. Say Hi to Dude for me!

You are welcome Tom. Do noy put pressure on yourself to blog on my behalf; although, I do love reading your reviews. Please note that my original shout out to you had a "bad word" in it. Under advice of Dude, I made it rated "G."
