If we were having coffee today, I would share with you my review of a fabulous new book from one of my favorite bloggers!

To me there is nothing like enjoying a few moments with a hot beverage while reading a good book.

Hugh Reading Glimpses

Let me introduce you to Hugh Roberts, blogger at Hugh’s Views and News.

Roberts says that he chose the title Glimpses because “that is what you are about to get—glimpses into the everyday lives of people who are about to be led up a path they were not expecting.”

Not only is he a brand-new author, fellow bloggers tell me he is possibly the nicest gentleman you will ever meet in person or in the blogosphere!

You can view his book on Amazon.

5 starsHere is my 5-star Amazon review:

Glimpses is a delightfully twisted set of short stories inspired by author Roberts’ blog. If you follow his blog, you may recognize a few of his terrifying tales reminiscent of stories in the sci-fi genre of Twilight Zone or Outer Limits peppered with a dash of horror. “The Truth App” is the piece de resistance in this collection of 28 stories. Roberts’ biting wit and deft tale-telling will have you reading on the edge of your…well, your reading device! A great read that will have you begging Roberts for more!

If we were having coffee today, I would urge you, readers, to support your fellow bloggers’ publishing endeavors. I am proud to know a growing number of bloggers who have self-published works. Not only am I astounded by their writing abilities, but also by their encouragement of my writing as well. Many of these bloggers self-published their first book within the last year!

  2. Thank you so much for the fantastic review for Glimpses, Terri. Not only has it made my day, but it’s made my year. I really appreciate you reading and reviewing the book. Will I be writing a second book of short stories? With a review like that, you bet. 😀

  8. I do like to h,all new authors but often the 📚 are in a format that makes it difficult to read. I spend time searching for them than actual reading the book. Also, I have so many to read I never lack for one. There a number of excellent books coming out next year I will be busy reading.

  9. What a great review, Terri! If I didn’t already have the book, I’d be heading over to Amazon to buy it. Here’s the line that snagged me: “. . . terrifying tales reminiscent of stories in the sci-fi genre of Twilight Zone or Outer Limits peppered with a dash of horror.” I never missed an episode of either show.

    Congratulations to Hugh for being on his way into the realm of the published author. And thank you, Terri, for the mention. I’m honored to be among such an elite group of authors (yourself included) 💖
