The Mountains Bow Down
On 12/1 Sir Emeth wrote: The mountains of Alaska are awesome. Cruises on luxury liners are brilliant. Until you get a murder in the mix.

Better Than I Expected

Out of the hundreds of books that ... Everyone Communicates…
Free Book
On 3/2 Sir Emeth wrote: Greetings, I am trying out the BookSneeze service, and so far, it looks good. I got to read a good book and write about it all for free! Humorously, the book I chose is called Free Book. Hahaha… Unfortunately they want a shorter review than I would naturally give, and for those of you who know ... Free Book for Free!
