posted by Chuck Ayers Book Report Before we get started on this book report, I would strongly suggest you obtain the audiobook as read by voice actor Kathryn Markey. She does a most credible job of replicating an Italian accent, Irish accent, French accent, a British accent, and of course, an American accent. Let meContinue reading “My Book Report.”

A book you might read.
Book Report Many of you along with myself may have recently heard an NPR Fresh Air interview with Judy Blume. An interview more or less reviewing Ms Blume’s fifty-year-old bestseller “Are you their God. It’s me Margaret” as it was adapted into motion picture form. Ms Blume concurs that the movie adaptation pretty much followsContinue reading “A book you might read.”
Book Report: I thought they fired him.
Book Report After he left the Saturday evening public radio show under a fog of impropriety, Garrison Kiellor really never went away. Still writing his brand of small town prairie humor and taking his show on the road. We noticed his coming appearance on the Brady theater in Tulsa a year or so ago. NeverContinue reading “Book Report: I thought they fired him.”

Book Report: Nina and RBG.
Book Report Being a long time NPR listener, I first remember fearing the author of this biography reporting on the Iran/Contra controversy during the Reagan Administration.

Do not bother me while i’m writing my novel.
I have decided to write a book. Since I have some modest writing skills, I shall author a novel. A murder mystery about opposing interests that despise each other’s narrow interests. Almost like warring mob families intended on destroying each other. Godfather, step aside. This is a battle of turf and territory. If one opposingContinue reading “Do not bother me while i’m writing my novel.”
Boys from Biloxi by John Grisham.
Book Report If you are a legal thriller fan as well as a John Grisham fan, well, here it is in this book. It’s what he writes best. But, wait a minute and not so fast judicial breath. FYI, he does occasionally write non-legal fiction. For example, he wrote book titles like Sooley, Playing forContinue reading “Boys from Biloxi by John Grisham.”
