[Review] - 'The Foe of Barnabas Collins' by Marilyn Ross

Barnabas Collins is back in the ninth Dark Shadows novel - The Foe of Barnabas Collins. The gothic-romantic romp became available to the public in July 1969. Once again, Marilyn Ross gets credit as the author. FYI - Marilyn is the pseudonym for the late author William Edward Daniel Ross.

[Review] - 'Crossfire' (Extreme Measures 2) by Lynette Eason

[Review] - 'Crossfire' (Extreme Measures 2) by Lynette Eason

Last week, I binged-watched the second season of The X-Files and coincidentally read Crossfire by Lynette Eason, which centers on an FBI antagonist. The two are in no way linked together besides both having FBI characters. Crossfire is a Christian romance-thriller, and nowhere does the description fit in with The X-Files.

{Sunday Post} - A Time to..., Cemetery Road, and The Old Man
Sunday Post is a weekly meme hosted by Kimberly @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer!



Good Morning, Bloggers!


It's Saturday at 10:46 PM. I just finished sipping coffee while my mind analyzed a twenty-seven-year-old episode of The X-Files. 
 
  • My good ole allergies have been acting up, probably due to the extreme humidity. 

  • Gnats have taken over my home! It seems like every year, these pests show up like clockwork and then vanish into thin air. Thank the heavens for apple cider vinegar and Hot Shot! 

  • The KC Royals are 43-65 but aren't dead last. They're in 4th place and only 14.5 games behind. Whit Merrifield got traded to the Tronto Blue Jays. Karma?

[Review] - 'The Demon of Barnabas Collins' by Marilyn Ross

If you perchance to buy a Dark Shadows novel at a thrift store or used book store with only the bare minimum knowledge of the series, you'll be confused or disappointed after reading the book. Whether you have seen a few episodes of the original ABC daytime soap, the short-lived NBC series, or Tim Burton's spoofy remake, you know the vampire Barnabas Collins is imprisoned in a coffin and is released 100+ years later. Barnabas didn't make his way into the book series by Marilyn Ross (the pen name of William Edward Daniel Ross) until the sixth novel, and his backstory was different. Instead of being chained in a coffin, Barnabas lived among the living. Every once in a while, he would change his identity to a made-up son, grandson, great-grandson, etc., so nobody would find out about his vampire secret.

[Review] - 'Down Range' by Taylor Moore

[Review] - 'Down Range' by Taylor Moore

A Down Range paperback (published by William Morrow) had been sitting on a Walmart shelf collecting dust for nearly two months when I finally bought it. What lured me in was the back-cover quote from Providence Journal - "A masterwork of classic storytelling: a man defending his own in the best tradition of John Wayne or Clint Eastwood film." I'm in no way a John Wayne fan, but I love anything Eastwood-related.
