Getting to Know Jane –

Today, or more aptly yesterday, I began my endeavors to get to know Jane Austen.  In high school, I was able to avoid her acquaintance through my English teacher's disdain for her. None of my college professors introduced me, so I escape being forced to read her.  I am not a huge fan of romances …

It took me a while to accept that I am indeed a mystery novel fan.

A Man Guy Noir Would Love…

Review of Renee Pawlish's This Doesn't Happen In The Movies True to its description, this book delivers a wannabe detective, a femme fatale and an non-stop adventure.  Guy Noir, my favorite detective, would be proud to work a case with the fledgling  Reed Ferguson.  Both of them are in love with all things film noir …
