A NOTE ON MY REVIEWS: As a writer, I like to read widely – for pleasure, for research or for curiosity alone. My reviews tell you why I read the book and the impression it left on me. I include a section called 'Craft Related Notes' to make sure I am paying attention to the techniques the writer used. After all, every book is a teacher.
STAR RATINGS: I don't use star ratings as I would only be rating books in relation to my taste. I have the greatest respect for anyone who can get a book to publication and think my comments are much more useful in conveying what I thought of a book.
If you want to know which books left the biggest impression on me, see 'Absolute Favourites.'
