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.

It's Cool to Be Kosher

 It's Cool To Be Kosher: A Kosher Foods Word Search Book for Kids and Adults, Byron L. Reeder, BR Write Publishing House LLC, 2022

Word search books are a good way for children to learn their vocabulary words, and for adults to keep their brain cells active. This book is different.

Instead of the usual vocabulary words, this books looks at various fish and animals that are clean (or unclean) under Jewish law. The reader needs to find, for example, Giant California Sea Bass, Humpback Salmon, Mutton Snapper, Pacific Ocean Perch, Sacramento Splittail, Spring Salmon and Yellowfin Croaker. The reader will also have to search for Sunflower Seeds, Sweet Potatoes, Honeydew Melons, Lemongrass, Mustard Powder, Peppercorns and Common Pigeons. 

Under the category of unclean, or non-kosher, animals, the reader will need to search for Swordfish, Calamari, Kangaroos, Earthworms, Alligators, Sea Amphibians and Ostriches. There are even answers in the back of the book, for those who are impatient, or who honestly can't find a specific name.

Here is an easy (and fun) way to use one's brain. It is recommended for young people and adults, and is worth the money.
