Welcome. I'm so glad you've found me.  I've had a life long love affair with books and this is my opportunity to pay homage to the written word.  

This is a forum for any and all information regarding the printed matter bound between cloth or paper, on e-readers, or even read aloud.  I offer reviews -  lots of reviews - as well as lists of reviewers' favorite books each year, and links to various websites extolling the virtues and practicalities of reading groups, the publishing industry, writers, and booksellers. This is a constantly evolving work in progress.  I welcome constructive criticism, ideas, suggestions and/or feedback of any kind.

Peruse and enjoy!

A note about the books reviewed on this site: In 2009, a law was enacted that has been causing some confusion among online reviewers. For clarity's sake, all reviews on this site are the opinions of the reviewer, based on a careful reading of the work. Books are furnished to reviewers in a variety of ways, including review copies from the publisher, the author, and/or publicists. Other books are borrowed from libraries, received as gifts from friends and family members, and purchased in bookstores, both online and bricks & mortar.  Reviewers stand by their reviews as their own opinion, regardless of the source of the book being reviewed. Any questions about a review or source of a book may be directed to the editor of this site via email.

The views expressed here are mine and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Palm Beach County Library System.

In memory of my beloved mother, Selma Kapson & stepfather, Robert Kapson
