Hello Everyone
I've always enjoyedthe reading & writing of blogs! It appears that we now have a number of bloggers sharing their work with us soI thought it was time that a new Forum Category Bloggers' Corner was created.
Please feel free to use it to share and show off your personal blogs.
Also, I have taken the liberty of moving some old discussions that were in the General Category to the new Bloggers' Corner butI'm sure that I haven't caught them all. Bloggershave the ability tochange the category by editing their discussions (look at the very top under the discussion title).
Enjoy!

Just finished The Martian by Andy Weir.
It's kind of like MacGyver in space with the hero having to do a lot of problem solving in order to survive his unexpected, extended stay on Mars. Since I'm big on problem solving, I enjoyed it quite a bit!
Thanks for all the recent replies. Now I can round out my summer reading list!
I have read Catherine the Great: Portrait of a Woman a couple of times & I agree that it's excellent.
AnytimeI hear "quantum multiverse" I tend to start breaking out in hives. Fascinating material that always makes me feel rather dimwitted. I think I'll be brave & give them a look, Tiamat.
I can see why your free time could be rather restrained by reading 10 to 15 books at a time, Curtis. I thought I was being adventurous when I had 2 on the go!
Sounds like it would make a great winter read as well.
We've had a few series run in our local paper of people that have hiked different trails around the world and the journey is always fascinating (except for the parts about the huge blisters & the inevitable hallucinations - lol).
As I've told you before, great topic for a thesis!
Thanks for the recommendations, I'm going to have to take a look.
Thanks for the recommendations, Leandro.
I'll be learning more about the French Revolution.
Wow - what a find!
Sounds like a fascinating read.
Thanks for telling us about it.
For some reason I thought it was going to be like Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier. Iwas expecting to proceed at a rather leisurely pace wandering dream-like through the story from "Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again" to "And the ashes blew towards us with the salt wind of the sea". Instead I ended up blasting through this page-turner, anxious to see how things developed& surprised that the characters weren't behaving at all as I assumed they would.
Here's my review: The Uninvited Guests by Sadie Jones
