Delicious Bite-sized thoughts on the books we are reading this week.
Book Bites: Heroes Ever Die by J. A. Crawford
Comic books are a fun vacation from reality, taking the reader into an alternate universe where things are normal but just a bit different, a bit more sensational.

Book Bites: Goldhammer (A James Flynn Escapade) by Haris Orkin
