REVIEW: “The Empath” by Jody Klaire
I enjoy opportunities to read offerings from new authors. I admit that I don’t get to do it often. Life keeps me pretty busy. So busy, in fact, that I don’t get to read often at all. Full stop. That saddens me because I love reading so much. Strange. Seems like I had more time…

REVIEW: “Love is Enough” by Cindy Rizzo
Let me get this out of the way right at the top: I don’t like politics. I never really have. That was a tough row to hoe when I was living with a mother and grandmother who spent about 75% of their waking hours watching or talking politics. Don’t get me wrong. That doesn’t mean…

REVIEW: “All We Lack” by Sandra Moran
Rizzoli & Isles is about to finish up its fifth season on TNT. The last new episodes will air next week (March 17) and I’ll be forced to wait until summer for the next season. I started watching Rizzoli & Isles pretty late in the game. In fact, I started watching in the middle of the fifth season.…

REVIEW: “Zero Visibility” by Georgia Beers
The really wonderful thing about Lesbian Fiction is that it has really become pretty diverse in terms of genre.Yes, I think we still have a way to go, but there are more options to choose from today than there were in, say, 2000. Heck, in the last 10 years alone, the Golden Crown Literary Society…

REVIEW: “The Imitation Game”
I’ve been doing my best to see more movies in the theater. For as much as I love awards season, I usually don’t see the nominated films before the awards ceremonies. I’d wait for them to come out on DVD or hit cable. But, I want to change that routine. I’d like to be more…

REVIEW: “Big Eyes”
This is a movie I’ve wanted to see for a while. Because, well, Amy Adams is in it. I love me some Amy Adams. I have ever since she played Cousin Beth in Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Anya slapped her down for not knowing what kind of demon Tara was supposed to be. (Yeah. I’m that…

REVIEW: “Into the Woods”
I have loved musicals all my life. My mother got me hooked on them when I was very young by listening to the soundtrack records with me. (Yes, records. Vinyl.) When cable came into our lives, movie musicals were often played. That was Nirvana for me. I would turn down invitations from friends to go…

REVIEW: “Wild”
Anyone who has kept up with or read through my blog posts is aware of the close relationship I had with my mother. Her death 2 years ago was devastating. I still find it so strange that I have to visit her at the cemetery, and not just go into the next room to see…

REVIEW: “The Theory of Everything”
Once upon a time, I was a Physics/Astronomy major. I spent 2 1/2 years in college studying the laws and beauty of our universe. I wanted to work for NASA. But, I fell out of love with it. I mean, I still like Physics and Astronomy. I just lost my desire to have it be the…
