If you’ve grown up on the East Coast of Canada, you’ve seen Rick Mercer in some capacity on TV over the years. It was nice to get some behind the scenes of all that action. His growing up, 22 Minutes, The Mercer Report. It was all good fun. He could…
He writes really well and I learned several new words that I had to stop and look up in the dictionary. You know you’re reading at your level when you have to do that as an adult. It’s 500 pages of Bono trying to convince people that he’s really a…
Allan Green is far from home on an alien planet after his space ship crashes. All he wants to do is get back to earth. Seeing as he is going to be stuck on this planet for quite some time he may as well marry one of the most ridiculously…

How am I supposed to find free e-books now with the new layout? Just wondering… It’s how I do book reviews after all…
I read this one as a dare. My mother recommended it. It’s your standard who done it mystery novel with an ending you won’t expect. The plot is slow moving, and Clark introduces new characters every chapter. Character development is alright. The plot is good. The only other objection I…
