Over the weekend, I finally watched all eight episodes of HBO's True Detectives on On Demand. I enjoyed the limited-series and maybe I'll watch the second season next year; depending on who is starring in it.
Some of my blog readers may remember my old weekly "Great Finds" post which I would list (or more like brag) the books I bought at a thrift store. I have cut back on buying books from thrift stores, mostly because I have way too many books, but occasionally I'll pick up an interesting title, which I don't normally mention on my blog. However, I did pick up a few titles over the weekend that I wanted to share with everyone.
Garfield Goes Underground
Created by Jim Davis
Illustrated by Mike Fentz and Dave Kuhn
My Thoughts: Yes, this is a picture book, but I'm a big Garfield fan. The book was published in 1983.
Agent Cowboy (Colby Agency)
by Debra Webb
My Thoughts: I have to admit that I do read a few Harlequin titles. My favorite author from this genre is Debra Webb, so I was excited to find another book in the Colby Agency.
Horror At The Haunted House
by Peg Kehret
My Thoughts: I picked up this book as it reminded of the Point Horror novels from the 80s and 90s.
Terror At The Zoo
by Peg Kehret
My Thoughts: Yes, this is the same author of Horror At The Haunted House. I would have bought the book from the cover alone.
Francine Pascal's Sweet Valley High #89: Elizabeth Betrayed
by Kate William
My Thoughts: Yes, I'm probably one of the rare straight males who grew up reading Sweet Valley High. This happens to be one title I didn't already own.
Beach House
by R.L. Stine
My Thoughts: R.L. Stine is my favorite author. I couldn't remember if I own a copy of the book, so I bought it, but it turns out I do already own a copy. I guess this one will be my backup.

I genuinely cherish the thoughts and insights of my readers, and I wholeheartedly welcome your engagement. However, to foster a truly constructive dialogue, I’ll be keeping a careful eye on the comments section. This means I’ll be moderating to weed out any spammy detritus, overly harsh critiques, or contributions that don’t add anything meaningful to the conversation. Think of it as my little corner of the internet—a space where everyone can share their perspectives without the noise. Let’s make this a place where ideas can flourish and grow, rather than wither away in the shadows of irrelevance.
