Faery: the Final Frontier by Cathy A. Corn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I eagerly anticipated the release of the third book in the series with Lilith and Adam, and I purchased it for my Nook library.
Lilith and Adam's adventures took them from Pittsburgh to a mountain in the jungle of Ecuador back to New York city. There is another trip to Sedona for Lilith but Adam has to stay home to work. They are accompanied by urban shamans who need their help.
I recommend this book who enjoy romance mixed with the paranormal, and to those who may have read the books by Carlos Castaneda.

 Deadly Aim by Patricia H. Rushford
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This ebook was free when I downloaded if from Barnes and Noble to my Nook library in 2012. This gives me the opportunity to try a new-to-me author.

The premise of the mystery of the death of a 12-year-old Black child allegedly caused by a white police officer is as timely in 2015 as it was when the author first had the book copyrighted. Rushford draws the reader into the story quickly and has compelling characters. Her supporting characters are as well-defined as the main characters.

This ebook can be classified into three genres: mystery, romance, and Christian fiction. I recommend it to readers who like all three.

Splendors of the Past: Lost Cities of the Ancient World by John Carswell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book is one of many from The National Geographic Society on my bookshelf that I promised to read when I retired. I enjoyed the photography before, and now I enjoy the text.
There are more than 250 photographs on its 295 pages. I had the good fortune to visit Pompeii to see even more than the writer discusses. The rest of the book is great for armchair traveling.

The Chronic Cough Enigma: How to recognize, diagnose and treat neurogenic and reflux related cough by Jamie A. Koufman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

As a footnote in a brochure from a voice therapist, I was informed of Dr. Koufman's first book, Dropping Acid, and I learned about this book when I searched the catalog at my local library. I'm only days into the induction diet which requires 2 weeks committment; but I see less hoarseness upon awaking and fewer coughing fits throughout the day.
It is a quick read of only 76 pages with the rest being glossary, footnotes, and index.
I recommend it highly to all people who have a chronic cough and who have been unable to get a proper diagnosis from multiple specialists. Even if you find the right diagnosis, this book provides better explanations and more information for diet modification than a brochure with a list of only nine foods to avoid.

OneNote & Evernote Box Set: The Ultimate GTD OneNote User Guide + Quick OneNote And Evernote Guide To Improving Your Productivity And Getting Things Done by Kevin Wood
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This set of three ebooks was free when I downloaded it from Amazon to my Kindle library. I have downloaded and read many Kindle books about Evernote this year, and this is the first bundle that included books about OneNote. Most of these books have good information for beginners. I'm looking for intermediate or advanced instruction.
The first book includes information about using OneNote for shopping, Christmas, job search, and vacation planning. The second book is an explanation of OneNote's tool ribbon which was helpful for me, but it may be redundant for other readers. The third book is about Evernote, and beginners may find it useful.
I recommend it for beginners who want to learn about both OneNote and Evernote.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I'm reading the 3rd edition, published in 2015. It was free when I downloaded it to my Kindle app.
The third edition has a Part 3 for the Evernote Expert and that includes Chapter 5, Life Management Using Evernote where she gives some suggestions using the GTD (Get Things Done) approach. Brown also discusses Evernote for Business which is a different app. The last chapter has 20 tips.

Don't Cry for Me by William Campbell Gault
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book was free when I downloaded it from Barnes and Noble to my Nook library.

I enjoy noir mysteries, and I looked forward to reading one published in 1952 and its copyright was renewed in 1980. The inner monologues of Peter Worden contribute to the mood as he comments on Los Angeles in the early 50s as the Korean Conflict heats up while he works out what he will do as his current income is an allowance from his brother who controls Peter's share of the estate. Pretty soon there is a murder that complicates his life.

I recommend it to all readers who enjoy a good mystery.

 Paper Roses by Amanda Cabot
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book was free when I downloaded it from Barnes and Noble to my Nook library.

I often enjoy books in a historical west genre with some romance, and I can give it four stars for most of the book. It was the heavy-handed Christianity which seemed to drift from being important to the characters to making a point with the reader and the resolution in the last couple of chapters that dropped it down to three stars for me.

I recommend it only to readers who prefer sermonizing Christian fiction.

 Reader and Educator Guide to "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings" by Harcourt
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This ebook was free when I downloaded it from Barnes and Noble for my Nook library.
An educator who teaches Tolkein will have more use for this book for its educational plans, overviews, exam questions, and the additional source material than a reader who enjoys thought-provoking questions about beloved books.
I recommend it for those teachers.
