Always be a first rate version of yourself...: John Corey

What's Going On Here?

There are SO MANY wonderful book review blogs out there and I can't compete with them, that is for sure. So this is not a book review blog. This is just a way for me to organize what I have read so that I can be better at matching the right book to the right person. The blog title comes from the brilliant mind of the most talented woman who ever lived, Ms. Judy Garland. The full quote is, "Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of someone else." That is what I hope to do here and in ever aspect of my life.

Years and Years and Years Ago

I listened to Wild Fire. On a CD! At the drive-in! This was a LONG time ago! And I LOVED it! I just finished Plum Island, which is the first in the John Corey series and I loved it, too. Because John Corey is hilarious.

Here is just one of my favorite quotes:
She has clear, grey eyes, grey hair and a sort of interesting face with translucent skin. A face that reminded me of an old painting. Not any particular painting.
Or artist.
Or style.
Just an old painting.

I LOVED THAT!

Anyway...fantastic cop. Fantastic book.
