Wednesday Wine and A Book

This week's theme is Invisible (Changed to disappearing act!)



The Wine suggestion was supposed to be the critically acclaimed Cimicky Invisible Man Shiraz 2010 but like its name sake it disappeared...I kid you not. It has sold out and I have no date for when it will be available through wine.com  You can get on the waiting list or you can probably find a local carrier who may have it in stock. :(



The book accordingly is The Invisible Man by Ralph Ellison 

  Invisible Man is a milestone in American literature, a book that has continued to engage readers since its appearance in 1952. A first novel by an unknown writer, it remained on the bestseller list for sixteen weeks, won the National Book Award for fiction, and established Ralph Ellison as one of the key writers of the century. The nameless narrator of the novel describes growing up in a black community in the South, attending a Negro college from which he is expelled, moving to New York and becoming the chief spokesman of the Harlem branch of "the Brotherhood", and retreating amid violence and confusion to the basement lair of the Invisible Man he imagines himself to be. The book is a passionate and witty tour de force of style, strongly influenced by T.S. Eliot's The Waste Land, Joyce, and Dostoevsky

Book Review: Fractured

Image
I was sent this book by the author Zelly Jordan based out of Australia. I had no idea what it was about. I was informed it was her debut book. *There may be some unintentional spoilers This is a paranormal suspense romance, told in the pov of Kellan. It has a lot of action, intrigue and mystery along with some sexual angst. For a debut novel it is pretty good. Especially since the author is an indie author and did all of the proofing and editing herself. You know how I love to support indie authors. It didn't grab me and suck me into the story right away, per se, but slowly builds up the connection between the characters and the reader. It was a fun, light read. What I like to refer to as a hollow read, where you are a bystander watching the story unfold as opposed to feeling like you are fully immersed in the story.  It's not a long read. There is a lot of dialogue and some thought repetition going on. This book is better suited for mature readers because of the...
