September 2018 Books Vs Moods

I did not read as much as I thought I would this month. I did start my language class, sign up for a sewing class and walk a lot more than I usually do! So overall this has me feeling very good about the month that I have had. Below, as usual, are my months…

The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul (Dirk Gently #2) by Douglas Adams

I reviewed or attempted to review the previous book of the series here : Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency . I encourage you to read the first review before proceeding, in order to get an idea of what you might be heading in to this review. Now that you are back from that review I…
