Try a search/google. Both Goodreads and Amazon have recommendations but they change these from time to time. Check the general promotional advice but be careful as many of these try to make money off you.

I liked Jonas Jonason's The Hundred year Old Man, LOVED Lois Lowry's Messenger, ditto Molly Harper's Even Tree Nymphs Get the Blues.

Hi, William. We'd be happy to have you! The best way is to check on the group once a week and see. My current travel plans mean I won't do a novella group until mid-June - but check out whatever comes. One of the "in this world" or "out of this world" groups might appeal to you. I lurked for a couple of months before joining one! That was nearly ten years ago ...

Many of the things an author writes about are from his or her experience, but I have not found a plot as such from my life of from a mystery in my life ...

It is against all kinds of rules to review someone who is /has reviewed you. Best to stick to the format in the Review Group. There is also a one for one review thread there. And there are other review groups. Keep looking for them!

When a subject intrigues or challenges me. Currently, I am thinking about the Book of Job.

Hi Sharon,
The Ninja and the Diplomat is just out but is a very different kind of book. It is a spy novel set in contemporary China/Asia. I'll send you a copy - but no obligations.
A review or rating is always nice!

When I was in college, majoring in classics and history, the Oresteia by Aeschylus was required reading--part of the foundation of western culture and democracy or some such. Well, I didn't "get" it. Every decade or so since then I have wondered why not, especially with the appearance of different translations and "Notes." Then it occurred to me to mulled over the myths/legends that inspired it and to come up with a version that made sense to me. Here it is.

Finishing "Agamemnon Must Die" (my take of Aeschylus' Oresteia) and starting the sequel to "The Chinese Spymaster."
