October
We're coming into October and this year, a great many folk who delve into astrology agree the season is thick with change. Libra and Leo, avoid jumping into new projects until November, and even then, be cautious until the new year. 
This October will be turbulent and we will see a rough winter ahead.

| Parker isn't anyone to mess with and yet people keep messing with him. These novels are spare and perfect for the genre. Westlake was a master of structure. ...more | |

| If you want to study timing in a novel, Westlake is the best and his dialog is as pared back and functional. | |
"This is the third novel in Richard Stark's (Donald Westlake's) great series featuring Parker, a completely amoral professional thief. Like all of the books in the series, this one is lean, mean, dark and gritty, and it opens when a professional hitma"

"Third in the Parker series. Parker went to all the trouble to get a new face that was revealed in book 2, but finds by the end of that book that his new appearance has been revealed anyway and the "Outfit," (Organized Crime) is out to kill him. Parke"

"Rereading in 2025: Just like Relic, Reliquary is even better the second time. My only complaint this time around is how whiney Margot comes off when she’s really a bad ass.
I saw a review comparing Relic (Pendergast #1) to a hot dog (read: guilty plea" Read more of this review » |

| Stephen King is one of the most readable writers. His voice is unmistakable. He knows how to draw characters and can take a simple plot or an absurd one and keep you engaged. Magic. If only am editor had the courage to edit him. While reading this bo ...more | |

Dark Tide I: Onslaught (Star Wars: The New Jedi Order, #2)
by Michael A. Stackpole (Goodreads Author) |

This was horrid. Too many characters without any sense of who they were or their internal motivations other than a few superficial stabs. And they are mostly brought together through awkward choices for a horribly botched climax. This is a book about ...more |

“Out- out are the lights- out all! And, over each quivering form,
The curtain, a funeral pall,
Comes down with the rush of a storm,
While the angels, all pallid and wan,
Uprising, unveiling, affirm
That the play is the tragedy, "Man,"
And its hero the Conqueror Worm.”

“In my next life I want to live my life backwards. You start out dead and get that out of the way. Then you wake up in an old people's home feeling better every day. You get kicked out for being too healthy, go collect your pension, and then when you start work, you get a gold watch and a party on your first day. You work for 40 years until you're young enough to enjoy your retirement. You party, drink alcohol, and are generally promiscuous, then you are ready for high school. You then go to primary school, you become a kid, you play. You have no responsibilities, you become a baby until you are born. And then you spend your last 9 months floating in luxurious spa-like conditions with central heating and room service on tap, larger quarters every day and then Voila! You finish off as an orgasm!”
