Native American « What CeciM Reads

Dead Beat, by Jim Butcher

pros: the funniest Dresden files so far; incredible imagery; great gags and puns

cons: what’s going on with Thomas? that part was weak; the pathologist could have been fleshed out a bit more; the snail pace romance between Murphy and Dresden

ISBN 045146091X; 448 pp; pub. 2006

Brief reviews with keyword categories

Click on a particular category name to see books I’ve read that have that element. Click on “All Book Reviews” for a listing of all reviews. The pros and cons are notes to myself and should be read with that caveat in mind.

As a voracious reader, I have read so many books I am finally forgetting critical details—like whether or not I’ve read a book before, or the title and author. These posts are my online database so I can keep track of what I am reading and maybe I will be able to use the categories to cross-reference and help jog my memory.

As time goes by, I will be adding references to books in my library or favorites from past reading. There should be links back to Amazon in case a viewer wants to buy a particular book or read user reviews. I try to link to the specific binding that I read, but this isn’t always possible.
