Review of COYOTE AMERICA by Dan Flores

By TJ June 9, 2020Books, Nonfiction, Wild Animals

The other evening I was driving through a busy intersection near my house on the outskirts of Phoenix and I saw a coyote crossing the street. Thankfully there wasn't a whole lot of traffic, but funny thing was he crossed with the light, as if he knew how to…

Review of JANE DOE by Victoria Helen Stone

By TJ June 9, 2020Books, Cats, Fiction

Neither of our silly cats was in the mood to do book poses tonight, so it was sister Sofia to the rescue, even though this book features a cat character :) We got this book as an Advance Reader's Copy at the RT Booklovers Convention in Reno, which we…

Review of WISH ME HOME by Kay Bratt

By TJ June 9, 2020Books, Dogs, Fiction

This kitty seems to be reading a lot of dog books lately! We found this book on Audible - it was an Audible book of the day - and we couldn't remove the ear buds for practically the length of the book. It's about a young woman, Cara, who…

Review of THE ELEPHANT WHISPERER by Lawrence Anthony

By TJ June 9, 2020Africa, Books, Memoir, Nonfiction, Wild Animals

About half way through this book I started crying and couldn't stop until end. And then I cried even more because it was over. Not because it was sad, although there are parts that are bittersweet, but just because it was so beautiful. Honestly, I don't think I've ever…

Review of MERCY FOR ANIMALS by Nathan Runkle

By TJ June 9, 2020Animal Activism, Memoir, Nonfiction

Wow. I'll be honest; this book is not easy for animal lovers to read. But it's SO important, you simply must. MERCY FOR ANIMALS is a memoir - partly of Nathan Runkle, the founder, and partly of the organization of the same name and the movement in farm animal…

By TJ June 9, 2020Books, Dogs, Fiction

With so many dog lovers and so many readers of crime novels, we find it strange that there aren't more K-9 mysteries out there. Why? Well, we were thrilled to find this one - SUSPECT by Robert Crais, which we originally found as an Audible daily deal, then loved…
