Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews, and is a fun way to share the books you’ve acquired over the past week or two.  I’ve had a pretty good two weeks as far as my book haul goes! I received several awesome things in the mail, I won two books, I bought a bunch […]

CURBCHEK RELOAD by Zach Fortier – Review

CURBCHEK RELOAD by Zach Fortier – Review
Posted September 2, 2012 by Tammy in Reviews / 0 Comments

This is the third book I’ve read by Zach Fortier, and I have to say it’s probably going to be the last. Fortier’s books are “fictionalized” incidents from his past life as a police officer. CurbChek Reload is described by the author as “CurbChek’s darker, meaner cousin” and he’s not wrong. This book was mean, […]

In an attempt to really organize my reading and reviewing schedule, I put before you the books I have lined up for September. The review list is a bit longer than I want it to be. I was hoping to squeeze in some “me” books, but that might have to wait for October. For review: […]

We’re already six days into August, and I have a full plate of books to consume. I’m not sure what happened, but I’ve agreed to read and review a number of books this month, and I need to get cracking. Here’s what my brain feels like right now: That’s right, overcrowded and confused! But what […]

STREET CREDS by Zach Fortier – Review

STREET CREDS by Zach Fortier – Review
Posted April 7, 2012 by Tammy in Reviews / 0 Comments

Although my review of Zach Fortier’s Curbchek was less than favorable, the author asked me to read and review Street Creds, which follows much the same format but focuses on Fortier’s time working on the Gang Task Force.  I expected Curbchek to be a novel, which it claims to be. But it was a rather […]

CURBCHEK by Zach Fortier – Review
Posted February 5, 2012 by Tammy in Reviews / 0 Comments

I received a review copy of Curbchek from the author, and was immediately struck by the intriguing cover.  Curbchek describes the gritty, day-to-day working life of a cop on the city streets, and that cop’s name is Zach Fortier, just like the author.  Now, I’ve actually read quite a few books where the author decides […]
