About Me

My photo
I'm a reader who enjoys posting comments and recommendations about the books I read. You will not find a synopsis with my recommendations because you can just click on the book title for a link to www.goodreads.com for a synopsis and reviews by other readers. I prefer the 3 Reason format: the reason I chose to read it; the reason I liked (or disliked) the book; and the reason I recommend it.

The New Deputy in Town (Whitehorse Montana #2)The New Deputy in Town by B.J. Daniels
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This ebook was free when I downloaded it in 2012 to my Nook library.
It was predictable for the genre.

Sketch Now, Think Later: Jump into Urban Sketching with Limited Time, Tools, and TechniquesSketch Now, Think Later: Jump into Urban Sketching with Limited Time, Tools, and Techniques by Mike Yoshiaki Daikubara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I bought this book on the recommendation of a review by Marc Taro Holmes, who is an instructor with Craftsy.com.
This book covers the subject of limited time, tools, and techniques. One piece of advice that stuck with this beginner is "Always finish a sketch" and his 4 bullet points that explain this advice.
I recommend it to all readers interested in Daikubara's art and this hobby of sketching.

 Prepare for Surgery, Heal FasterPrepare for Surgery, Heal Faster by Peggy Huddleston


A friend gave me this book to read before my scheduled surgery. It was helpful because it gave me specific statements to give to my anesthesiologist to request participation in my healing.
