Reviewed by Mildred
I’ve always liked to do too many things. My dad taught me how to appreciate movies, especially the bad ones, and my mom got me hooked on books. There were always three to five books waiting for me in different rooms back then but now I stick with one e-book at a time.
For a while I wrote fiction and went to science fiction conventions to hang out with authors, artists, and Klingons. There are only a few places in the US I haven’t been to and I’ve played several sports competitively. After many years and a slew of jobs I settled into the quiet life of an office weenie until retirement.
Just don’t ask me to be the life of the party because that’s not a thing.

The Heart of the Banshee by Carolyn Elizabeth: Book Review
From our review: “It’s got a tough but loving captain and a taut crew always ready for a sea battle. There is a lot of action that puts everyone in danger and requires strength and bravery to overcome. What I didn’t expect and actually had me on the edge of my seat was when the story takes a turn toward creepy.”
