Buddhism and Politics - Book Review
Buddhism and Politics: Citizens, Politicians, and the Noble Eightfold Path by Victoria Stoklasa Genre: Nonfiction |
In this day and age it seems that the majority of politicians are just power hungry, money grubbing people who are only looking out for their own best interests. I think that, similar to many occupations, the people start out with good intentions but become hardened or disenchanted after realizing that situations may not be as rewarding as they had originally anticipated.

Monkeys Wearing Pants - Fun Read Friday Book Review
Monkeys Wearing Pants by Jon Waldrep Genres: Humor, Satire |
This book is a collection of anecdotes and witticisms and is currently a free Kindle ebook on Amazon. Great light reading for the weekend or on any day that might need to be brightened a bit. Even though I have a pretty decent sense of humor it takes something incredibly funny to make me chuckle out loud, but this book did quite a few times, in fact. Sometimes the humor is a bit quirky but Waldrep takes every day situations that can be frustrating normally and put a spin on it to make them seem comical.

On the Bridge - Book Review
On the Bridge by Ada Uzoije Genres: Drama, Paranormal |
They say suicide is a selfish act. When one commits suicide they leave behind their friends and loved ones to mourn, ponder why one would take their own life, and possibly leave spouses and/or children to flounder on their own. If you think about it though, there are plenty of stories and movies where one desolate soul wishes they had never been born and some mystical creature rearranges the world to reflect what would have been if that person had never been born. This level of depression is not a new concept. Unfortunately, in real life, a celestial being never intervenes to show the suicidal individual that their lives DO matter and they are not just a millstone around the necks of people who would be better off without them.

BRRRR
It is getting chilly out and summer is most definitely over. I seem to have seriously overextended my summer hiatus well into fall this year. I apologize for this. I had a booth for my craft business at our local festival this year and have been overwhelmed with orders. I have been flying through the audiobooks but did not want to have only audiobook reviews up so have been waiting until I did have time for "real reading". However, it doesn't look like I will have much time for that until after Christmas. So bear with me as the majority of reviews will be for audiobooks, but heck I figure the plot is still the same whether it is read to me or not.
