Leaves of Glen Reads: ‘August Heat' by W.F. Harvey

This author really hates overweight men. That is pretty clear. And he thinks bible-reading-wives are boring as hell. Put it all together and you have the making of a good paranormal murder story.

Leaves of Glen Reads: ‘The Legend of Sleepy Hollow’ - By Washington Irving Part 2

He didn't die. I don't know how else to make that clear. I'm sick of people trying to be all cute with, "Are you sure? Maybe the Headless Horsemen claimed another victim..." and smile all smugly to themselves. Irving made it perfectly clear that he was alive and well in another city. End of story.

Book Boys review ‘Breaking Dawn’ by Stephenie Meyer - Part 1

We read the 4th and 'final' book in the Twilight saga. And it's off to an amazing start- where the first 3rd of the book is all about Bella's wedding and honeymoon. That's pretty much it.

Leaves of Glen Reads: ‘The Haunted and the Haunters’ - By Edward Bulwer-Lytton -Part 1

The full title of this is 'The Haunted and the Haunters: Or The House and the Brain' if that doesn't give you a hint at how convoluted this story is going to be.

Book Boys watch 'Twilight' - the movie

We decide to test out our new audio situation by live-watching 'Twilight' the movie. It's a hoot if you're watching it with us, but if you're just listening- all you're going to hear is us breathing a lot and it won't make sense. Especially when Ben explains all of Edwards weird expressions being the result of an eternal struggle with puberty. We learn: Ben is inching closer to a romantic relationship with is physical therapist Gretchen explains how a tufted tit-mouse will eat your hair Glen tri...

Book Boys review ‘Benny Uncovers a Mystery (The Boxcar Children)’ by Gertrude Chandler Warner

Two grown men read a book for really, really young children. We learn that this series has nothing to do with homeless children who ride the rails solving mysteries. They are, in fact, privileged kids living in a small town where everyone respects them. We learn: Ben’s employer won’t let him work from home even when he has a bum leg Gretchen explains how birds can have secret families… Like a salesman Glen gets ripped off by a racist tree guy Go read it yourself: https://bookshop.org/a/12554/978...
