Review FOREVER WISHES




FOREVER WISHES

 

LEEANNA MORGAN

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

'Forever Wishes' is a well-written predictable romance novel. Man meets woman. They have sex, and then...

This novel has its twists and turns. The major problem with this love story is whether to have children or not, which in today's world is a challenge.

Each person's background tells the story of why they believe in what they do concerning marriage and having children. Those and other roadblocks the two have to overcome are the cruces of their relationship.

As I noted, this is a foreseeable conclusion a lover of Romance novels will revel in.

Review of THE FEAR HUNTER



THE FEAR HUNTER

Agatha Bright Mysteries

Elise Sax


Review by Author Roy Murry



I found the story and characters strange, so I continued reading. Agatha comes out of the lighthouse, her long-time position, to manage the Bright family's soup shop - four caldrons, four soups. Need I say more.

There is a murder, and Agatha reads mystery books to solve the crime, which leads to more deaths she falls over. However, the crazy events in between should keep the reader continuing if they like strange events, including a Punk Rock knitting contest.

The prose is funny; the characters are weird; the ending is unpredictable. But, as a cozy mystery, this novel works.

Review of DEATH TAKES A BREAK




DEATH TAKES A BREAK

A Taylor Texas Mystery

 

VIKKI WALTON

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Christie takes a break from her day job and visits her father on the family ranch. City slickers are harassing Dad to buy his and his friend's property to build a resort.

Add into the mix are old friendships, love affairs, and what seems murder of a friend to Christie. There are some twists and turns, but the plot is easy to follow.

There is a surprise ending that the reader will have to unravel in their heads. However, Christie and her dad still have problems that lead the reader to want more of the series.

The novel's pace was a little slow, but the story kept me reading on - Good Read.

Review of The War on the West




THE WAR ON THE WEST


DOUGLAS MURRAY

 

Review by Roy Murry

 

This war is an insurgency by people in the west who have decided that the west, mainly white humans are the reason the world is in a problematic state. Their bogus explanation's basis is on FEELINGS, not facts, which is my interpretation of Murray's thesis.

Douglas Murray's evaluations are based on detailed facts with footnotes. He gives the pros and cons of these psychological and philosophical mini-wars, taking the stand that conservative thought will win the day.

It's a long journey reading Murray's book, but worth the read. His points are clear, concise, and understandable for a novice like myself with a minimal psychological background.

'WAR' is a read you need to converse with the woke people in your life. Those interfaces are needed to save the 'WEST.'

Review of WINE CLUB




No Sweat Pants Allowed

WINE CLUB

 

Jan Romes

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Putting two women into a conspiracy against men would raise hell. In WINE CLUB, Ms. Romes has interwoven the stories of four women and their personalities, living under one roof, into a play of disasters and triumphs.

These women, led by wealthy Elaina, owner of a large house they all move into, come together because of marital problems, i.e., divorces. How each marriage ended brings up various questions as to why they lived with those men in the first place.

The solutions to the ladies' endeavors evolve into conflicts between themselves. Some are sad, and some are funny. 

However, the story as a whole does work and keeps the reader wondering what will come next right up to the end---an enjoyable, Good Read.

Review of White Lily and a Teddy Bear





White Lily and a Teddy Bear

 

DANIEL S. SMITH

 

Review by Roy Murry

 

This story starts boring: an engineer, Don's daily routine of shit, dress, and shave (Crazy order); then he goes to work. Okay, there are some funny and sad parts: he talks to his dead wife, eats the same food each day, and reads the love commentary in the newspaper.

Don's life changes when Rachel arrives as a coworker on Monday. This adventure starts on a Wednesday and ends the following Saturday after he meets Rachel.

It's love at first smell. Yes, first smell. The involvement starts because their boss asks Don to help Rachel find an apartment.

The only drawback to this romance novel is Mr. Daniel Smith's interwoven politics into Don and Rachel's wooing, using rants. There was no need for me - I never mix love with politics.

All in all, the writing kept me engaged and was somewhat funny.

Review of JUST TYRUS




JUST TRYUS, A Memoir


TRYUS

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

After finishing his story, I had to think about what I read in JUST TRYUS for a few days. At first, I gave the book a five-star rating. But I reevaluated that thought - three to four-star at best.

Honesty is essential in a memoir. This work does to a point; I get it. Tryus wants to be known for his wrestling. But what is his birth name? Did I miss it?

Did I miss many things - the women in his life and their children? Unfortunately, for some reason, Tryus is not giving us the whole story. However, he alludes to that part of his life in comments on the Gutfeld Show, which I enjoy each time I see him on the show.

Tryus is not a literary spin master. His writing is uncomplicated and simply right to the point, as they are on Gutfeld. I look forward to them each time I watch the show.

His life has twists and turns, which many have also had. But he made it to the limelight, and I am glad he has. I wish him nothing but luck.

Good Read.
