MINISTRY OF MORGASM by Richard Buzzell


MINISTRY OF MORGASM
by Richard Buzzell
3 stars

I received this book from LibraryThing in return for an honest review.

Surprisingly good. Not the story I expected to be reading. 
The author writes as if he is a female narrator. The story is about two sisters who are invited to a Introduction to Morgasm meeting. The narrator is skeptical to say the least. Her sister seems to be all for it. The woman running the meeting has an answer for every point brought up that is against morgasmism. Morgasm is exactly what it sounds like, the art of more orgasm (mo'gasm) and how it can enrich all aspects of your life. 
The end has a surprise revelation. 
It only takes an hour or so to read and has some interesting points. Like considering your man as a sex slave, shared experience is better than doing it alone, and make sex about your pleasure and then your partner will get pleasure too.
Even though this is a fictional concept, it sounds like a lot of the tips and ideas would truly work.

I would recommend this book to all men and women. It may enrich your sex life and beyond.

If you read this book, please leave a comment. I would love to know what you thought and why.

SEE/SAW: QUIRKY POEMS by Ken Tomaro & Nolcha Fox


SEE/SAW: QUIRKY POEMS
by Ken Tomaro & Nolcha Fox
3 stars

 I received this book from LibraryThing.

Written by 2 poets taking turn with stanzas. It seems to be all over the place with no sense to it at times. But if you read the poems a second time, they make more sense now that you know where they are going.

Such random topics like eating from a dump that ends up his home, watching a hurricane, being apathetic or pathetic depending on your point of view, and a King Cake.

He is a House and Too Blue were pretty good. As Surely As was funny, it made me laugh out loud.

There are no real titles to the poems, the first line of each poem is the title.

My favorite line from the whole book has to be "God is way bigger than my ass. That's comforting to know."

If you have read this book, please leave a comment. I would love to know if you liked the book, and why or why not.

POSTCARDS TO HERSELF: A PROSE POETRY NOVELLA by Laura Stamps


POSTCARDS TO HERSELF: A PROSE POETRY NOVELLA
by Laura Stamps
3 stars

I received this book from LibraryThing in return for an honest review.

Elaine misses the art of sending postcards to friends. She really misses receiving them. So she decides to write to herself. 

Each postcard is so random and some of them make no sense. A guy on the corner in an orange suit, cars that drive to fast, doggy toothpaste.

It was ok, and a little funny. It took 1 hour to read. For the most part this book was thoughtless, yet strangely thought provoking at the same time.

If you read this book, please leave a comment. Let me know your opinion, and why.

NIGHT OF THE WOLVES: BOOK 1 OF THE PALADIN SERIES by David Dalglish


NIGHT OF THE WOLVES: BOOK 1 OF THE PALADIN SERIES
by David Dalglish
5 stars


Very enjoyable story, intriguing.

I found the main characters very likable and honorable in their actions. Even the supposed villain in the story, Redclaw, wasn't such a bad guy. Once I understood his motivation and desperation behind his deeds, I felt a little sympathy for him. He didn't attack and kill out of bloodlust, but for a better life for his pups.

I plan on ready the rest of the series. I hope that Jerico and Darius find peace in their friendship. Even though they believe in different Gods, and are supposed to be mortal enemies.

This book took about 6 hours for me to read. 

If you read this book, please let me know what you thought. I would love to hear your opinion and why you felt that way.

VALENTINED: AN ESSIE COBB SENOIR SLUETH MYSTERY BOOK 3 by Patricia Rockwell


VALENTINED: AN ESSIE COBB SENOIR SLUETH MYSTERY BOOK 3
by Patricia Rockwell
4 stars


THE GIRLS ARE BACK! These elderly ladies are so much fun to read about. Essie is a 90 year-old, fun, trouble-making, nosy, busybody.

When Essie finds an elaborate Valentine's Day card from a secret admirer in her mailbox, she must solve the mystery of who sent it. While her and her best friends (Marjorie, Opal, and Faye) are investigating, they find 2 more mysteries to solve. Who could be a drug dealer at Happy Haven and why is Grace Bloom having food trays brought to her room? 

The answers may surprise you.

I thoroughly enjoy these books. Essie and friends are so fun and lovable. Patricia Rockwell writes so well. And they are quick easy reads.

THE ITALIAN SOUL: HOW TO SAVOR THE FULL JOYS OF LIFE by Judith Valente


THE ITALIAN SOUL: HOW TO SAVOR THE FULL JOYS OF LIFE
by Judith Valente
2 stars

I received this book through LibraryThing for an honest review.

I found this book boring. At first, it is a look into the life of the Italian people. The lesson is slow down, take notice, eat well, and socialize for a better, longer life. These are things I will try to work into my daily life.

Halfway through the book, the author started to add her political views. This is where I quit reading. I do not care if you are a Trump supporter or not. A book on living a better life should not cross over into shaming half of Americans for their belief or who they choose to follow.

I will not recommend this book to anyone. It was not for me.

THE LAST PATIENT OF THE NIGHT (AN AJ DOCKER MEDICAL THRILLER) by Gary Gerlacher

 

THE LAST PATIENT OF THE NIGHT (AN AJ DOCKER MEDICAL THRILLER)
by Gary Gerlacher
5 stars

Doctor AJ Docker, Doc for short, is an wisecracking, egotistical, womanizing ass. At least that is your first impression of him as the book begins. 

He is an ER doctor. One night a young woman comes in with a broken arm, then later is left on the ER doorstep dead. Doc, his cop friend, Tom and Tom's K9 dog named Banshee, decide to find out what happened to her. They get involved with some bad Ukranian thugs. Doc is chased and almost killed a few times. 

As the story goes on, we learn that Doc isn't all that bad of a guy. Most of the characters in the book are funny and 

I really enjoyed The Last Patient. It is book 1 of 5, I will most probably read the rest when I find time.


If you have read this book, please leave you opinion. I would love to know if you liked it and why or why not.
