Back in the Saddle

I can't believe that it's been since August that I wrote and had reviews published.  After kidney surgery in May, I thought I was on the road to recovery until cracked ribs hit me in September.  With any luck, all that's behind me and I'm now really recovering.  It's been a long, slow process, and it turns out that I'm not a very patient patient.

It hasn't helped that I've read a bunch of "C" grade books during my recovery.  The first of the romances for AAR, Tallie's Hero, is reviewed today.  It's definitely one of those that I really wanted to like and in synopsis sounds wonderful.  Too bad the reality didn't pan out.  In fact, in places the book read like author Sarah Luck was just a little too close to her source material and was coping the give-away pamphlets and self-published booklets given away at historical sites.

Unfortunately, the next few reviews for AAR will be just as lackluster as this one was.  (The "cowboy" on the cover, however, is a real cutie!  Nothing lackluster about him.)
