I am trying to be better about posting which books I’ve read and reviewed. From this genre, I’ve read and reviewed Pure Trash: The Story by Bette A. Stevens. Here is the link: https://www.amazon.com/review/R110X958TV71MQ/ref=pe_1098610_137716200_cm_rv_eml_rv0_rv. I enjoyed it so much that I bought Dog Bone Soup. I’m looking forward to reading it. 🙂

I have just finished reading “The Master and the Maid” by Laura Libricz. What a great book! I am writing a five star review for it. I love it when the characters in a book feel so real you walk around with them on your mind long after the story is over. I’m looking forward to part two of the trilogy coming in September!

Just ordered a copy of PURE THRASH by Bette Stevens from Amazon. I was intrigued when I read the blurb since there is a segment in one of my books dealing with the same type event, also based on true stories. Looking forward to reading it and will leave a review.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ THIS FIRST BEFORE YOU POST A REVIEW IN HERE
Because it’s needed apparently – a few words from Nonnie about posting reviews away from the main BOOKCLUB SELECTIONS FOR REVIEW (CATALOG) page…
“ATTENTION: PLEASE POST YOUR PURCHASES, READS AND REVIEWS ON THE MAIN BOOK CLUB SELECTIONS FOR REVIEW PAGE. THANK YOU!”
The reason for this is that Beem’s spread pretty thin and if you post away from the main page he may not pick up that you’ve done the review and so you won’t get credited for it…
BE SURE TO EMAIL BEEM at ravereviewsbookclub@gmail.com ATTN: REVIEWS as well as sharing your reviews on the MAIN CATALOG page – that way your efforts won’t be missed! 😉
