The Keeper of Hidden BooksThe Keeper of Hidden Books by Madeline Martin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Of the fictional Holocaust books I have read, this might be my favorite. How could it not? Libraries and books clubs and protection of the books, and people. All that and the intrigue of war, keeps the reader engaged. Saskia Maarleveld narrates Madeline Martin’s well-written story.

The characters are alive, making the reader feel they are flesh and blood; friends we care about.

Libby has this book, but I will have to buy my own copy. I know I will read it again and again.

Stream of Consequences Saturday, Inner, Outer

September 26, 2026

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is โ€œinner/outer.โ€ Use one, use both, use โ€™em any way youโ€™d like. Bonus points if you use both. Enjoy!

Streaming this in my head, the only thing that comes up is my second son’s favorite book when he was little. I can’t seem to find it. But the last page is stuck in my head for 50 years.

Mama, Mama, I went to town, Inside, Outside, Upsidedown!

Oh, look! I found the YouTube!

Review: Storm Front by Graphic Audio, Jim Butcher

Storm Front [Dramatized Adaptation] (Dresden Files, #1)Storm Front [Dramatized Adaptation] by Graphic Audio
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

A decade or so ago, I read several of The Dresden Files. They were fun books. The mixture of detective gumshoe with fantasy vibes made this series of books exceptional.

Oh, but wait until you listen to the Graphic Audio, Dramatized Adaptation of the first book in the series.

I couldn’t listen at bedtime. Too much action, a little too graphic of the monsters. But, whew! It was quite the ride.

If you get the chance to pick it up o Audible or borrow it from the library, you won’t regret it. Have fun!

Review: The Piano Teacher of Montparnasse by Heather Morris

The Piano Teacher of Montparnasse: The heartbreaking new novel from the bestselling author of The Tattooist of AuschwitzThe Piano Teacher of Montparnasse: The heartbreaking new novel from the bestselling author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It took me too long to read this book. But it wasn’t the book’s fault. I was ill. And there is one of the beauties of the story. Even when I couldn’t get back to it the characters pulled me in and I couldn’t wait to see what happened next. I will be buying the Audiobook as I want to enjoy it again.

Love of family and friends who become family, is what the book is about. With the dangers everywhere from Nazis, starvation, and in all, love and care is shown.

I am grateful to received this book from NetGalley. With Kindle I could listen to it with text-to-speech. Heather Morris wrote The Tattooist of Auschwitz and the other two books of that trio. I loved reading them, so I knew this would be as good if not better. And there was more, music, piano, teachers and students. I loved it.

Stream of Consequences Saturday, Typo

Filed under: Blogging — Leave a comment
September 19, 2026

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is โ€œtypo.โ€ Use it any way youโ€™d like. Have fun!

Well, here it is at the end of the day and I still haven’t come up with a dibble much less a stream. In this little paragraph I’ve made at least 5 typos that were immediately corrected.

Most of the time, I’m grateful for the help for my fat fingers, but this time, the typo is the lack of same. ๐Ÿซค
