When in Doubt, Read!: The New Class Conflict
http://nancyrbooks.blogspot.com/2015/04/the-new-class-conflict.html
When in Doubt, Read! A blog of book reviews. Books I have read and reviewed for Table Hopping. Tuesday, April 21, 2015. The New Class Conflict. I don't know if you, like me, have noticed an increasingly embattled exchange in our public arena. Some of this, I know, is due to social media. At first it was Twitter's tendency to slide into what more resembled the old Flamewars of BBS days, a series of increasingly angry if terse and occasionally clever barbs aimed at "the other side." So I quit it. Kotkin's ...

When in Doubt, Read!: January 2015
http://nancyrbooks.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
When in Doubt, Read! A blog of book reviews. Books I have read and reviewed for Table Hopping. Tuesday, January 20, 2015. South of Rising Sun. By: JD. McCall. By Guest Reviewer, John Sposato. I don't read a lot of westerns - but I have a friend who does. So I invited him to read and review this newly published novel about the Old West. From what I could observe, he buried his nose in the book for a solid three days, so it must have been purty good. Here, then, is his review:. The Rebel, Bonanza,. If you'...

When in Doubt, Read!: Things That Matter
http://nancyrbooks.blogspot.com/2014/05/things-that-matter.html
When in Doubt, Read! A blog of book reviews. Books I have read and reviewed for Table Hopping. Thursday, May 22, 2014. I admit it - my reading habit is so huge that I am way behind - the pile beside my bed grows ever higher. Yes, one day, I may be found buried under a fallen stack of unread books, novels, biographies, and nonfiction. But, I will have gone out as I lived: in a stack of reading material! And Walter Mondale. A Democrat and a Time Magazine. Of the far-left (perhaps even of the mid-left), Kra...

When in Doubt, Read!: Some Rules of the Road
http://nancyrbooks.blogspot.com/2014/12/some-rules-of-road.html
When in Doubt, Read! A blog of book reviews. Books I have read and reviewed for Table Hopping. Monday, December 22, 2014. Some Rules of the Road. As you must have guessed, I read. A lot. I have always had a wide-ranging appetite for the written word, fiction and non-fiction, romance and sci-fi, biography and crime cozies. In fact, I've often joked that I'll read a cereal box if there's nothing else around. And where are these emerging flaws most evident? While I agree, and I enjoy the creative use of a w...

When in Doubt, Read!: June 2015
http://nancyrbooks.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
When in Doubt, Read! A blog of book reviews. Books I have read and reviewed for Table Hopping. Friday, June 19, 2015. Laurel Canyon: The Inside Story. I have found myself fascinated lately by the period of the sixties/early seventies, and all that was happening culturally and in the music world. Last month's book review, Sex, Drugs and Rock and Roll. Reading through the Amazon reviews, it's hard to know whether the nay-sayers have knowledge Walker lacks (the biggest criticism is factual error, but given ...

When in Doubt, Read!: Pendragon Book Eight: The Pilgrims of Rayne
http://nancyrbooks.blogspot.com/2015/03/pendragon-book-eight-pilgrims-of-rayne.html
When in Doubt, Read! A blog of book reviews. Books I have read and reviewed for Table Hopping. Saturday, March 21, 2015. Pendragon Book Eight: The Pilgrims of Rayne. By D J. MacHale. I have an odd habit of reading certain books in little bites. Just enough to keep the story fresh in my mind. This book was one such. In this case, it was a flea market find. It came in a box of other dog-eared paperbacks, and is actually YA fiction. But it is. And I have to admit, while I wasn't exactly hooked. I also find ...
