Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I got at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 60% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Books I have authored.

Many times I receive books for FREE to give them an honest review. I do not get paid to give a good or bad review. Spotlights are promotional and should be regarded as advertising for the book spotlighted. Regardless of where or how I got a book, my review will be as honest as I can make it.

Double Blind by Brandilyn Collins

 
This is a character study mystery.  Lisa Newberry is recently widowed and a victim of mugging.   She is struggling with depression.  She finds what she thinks is going to be a universal panacea.  That is when her real troubles begin.

Lisa Newberry’s depression is well portrayed.  Sadly depression (no pun intended) afflicts an enormous number of people and is often mis-diagnosed or ignored.  Lisa’s trials with hope are in themselves depressing.  This is not a light hearted book.


Ms. Collins does a nice job depicting the conflicted relationship Lisa has with her mother.  The mystery is well done and the characters are clearly portrayed.

This book may have been received free of charge from a publisher or a publicist. That will NEVER have a bearing on my recommendations.
