Book Review: Gravediggers: Mountain of Bones
I've put off this review, partly because I doubt that many readers (as if I have many to begin with) will take interest. But hey, it's my journal.
As I mentioned before, author Christopher Krovatin, whom I still think of as Chris, went to camp with my sister and me. She and he dated a while and broke up amiably. His first novel, Heavy Metal and You, apparently drew some inspiration from her. I have not read that or Venomous, but at my mom's suggestion, I took up his third, which draws inspiration from campers I didn't know.
Chris's bio in the back doesn't mention that his mother is Anna Quindlen. That probably helped his writing ability.
( Dare you to keep digging )
Almost at random, I chose to follow this with a collection of three novellas by J.-H. Rosny aîné. It's been a while since my last 19th-century read.
