Welcome!


Welcome!! My name is Paul Lappen. I am in my early 60s, single, and live in Connecticut USA. This blog will consist of book reviews, written by me, on a wide variety of subjects. I specialize, as much as possible, in small press and self-published books, to give them whatever tiny bit of publicity help that I can. Other than that, I am willing to review nearly any genre, except poetry, romance, elementary-school children's books and (really bloody) horror.

I have another 800 reviews at my archive blog: http://www.deadtreesreviewarchive.blogspot.com (please visit).

I post my reviews to:

booklore.co.uk
midwestbookreview.com
Amazon and B&N (of course)
Librarything.com
Goodreads.com
Books-a-million.com
Reviewcentre.com
Pinterest.com
and on Twitter

I am always looking for more places to post my reviews.

The Ultimate Mediterranean Diet Cookbook for Beginners 2022 (2nd edition)

 The Ultimate Mediterranean Diet Cookbook for Beginners 2022 (2nd edition), Ellen Marino, Independently Published, 2022

The Mediterranean Diet is not about restricting people to certain foods, but about adding healthier foods (like fresh fruits and vegetables) to your diet. That's what this book is all about.

This diet can help prevent heart disease and Alzheimer's Disease. It can also help burn fat and manage your Type 2 diabetes. Among the suggestions are: eating healthy fats, increasing your consumption of seafood, drink wine and exercise.

There are two recipes per page, along with color pictures of what the dish is supposed to look like. There is a also a full list of ingredients and instructions. The recipes include vanilla raspberry oats, poached eggs, crispy fried sardines, chicken pizza, chicken rice, orange avocado and almond salad, cucumber bites and chocolate cake.

For anyone who wants to eat healthier, this book is a very good place to start. The author makes it very easy. Alternatively, you can just drool over the color pictures.
