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.

 Safe at HomeSafe at Home by Richard Doster
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This ebook was free when I downloaded it to my Nook library in 2012.
I enjoyed this story of a sportswriter and other southern folk struggling with racial equality in 1953-1955.  For those readers who find difficulty accepting Atticus Finch's character in "Go Set A Watchman," this book may make his struggle to get along with his neighbors more understandable.  It was just coincidence I read these books near the same time.
I liked this quote, "Baseball oozes through the man's pores like sweat through a roofer's."
I recommend this book to all readers.
