The Wager: A tale of shipwreck, mutiny and murder
A.H. Mittelman
The Wager is a book about a boat called The Wager. It’s a good book and they’re planning on turning it into a movie. It’s about an aggressive captain. The crew hates him and mutiny’s against him, and the mutineers kill anyone loyal to him. It is a true story.

Fairy Tale
Fairy Tale is a great new book from Stephen King. There’s already a movie being made based on the book. It’s really detailed and has descriptions of the other world the main character walks into that are vivid and bring the story to life, making it all feel very real!

When We Were Very Young
In another box set that my parents got me when I was younger contained four books by A.A. Milne. 'When We Were Very Young' is a collection of poems that Milne wrote for his son Christopher Robin. This is a book that is full of references to Mr. Edward Bear, but a lot of the poems give some various descriptions of life of a very young child and where, when, how and why they do what they do. The illustrations are quite cute for you can see what Christopher Robin is and may be thinking. Also, Pooh Bear does make his self-known at various points. I have read these verses many, many times over the years and each time make me feel good about myself.

Shadow Spell
The second installment of Nora Robert's Cousins O'Dwyer trilogy 'Shadow Spell' is all about Conner and his talents and his building relationship with Meara. The cousins seem to go back and forth between times and begin working with the cousins of the past and learning from them in dealing with Cabhan in their time and theirs. There are many issues that they are all dealing with in their lives. Nora Robert's once again has written a show and tell story. I have started reading book three of this series.

Muses & Musings
Welcome to my new series, a weekly blog on what’s inspiring me. I spent much of last week in bed with a stomach bug. I’ll spare you the details of that—but in addition to the grotesque physical symptoms, I had some fever dreams I won’t soon forget. Imagine my surprise to see Vocal’s newest challenge: Write a fiction story about a recurring dream or nightmare.
