Changing Tides by Michael Thomas Ford

Jeff -

I feel like it took me forever to read this book, which is not a good sign. An even worse sign is that I nearly abandoned it a couple of times and I did skim over entire parts of it. I’m usually a huge fan of Ford’s work, but Changing Tides left me a bit [...]

Four Letter Word

Jeff -

The Straight Road to Kylie by Nico Medina

Jeff -

I started the first morning of 2008 finishing off The Straight Road to Kylie, Nico Medina’s debut novel that came out last spring. It was a good way to start of the new year from a reading perspective.
