When I finished The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, I thought to myself, “Man, there really is something to this Stieg Larsson hype”. I absolutely loved it. However, when it ended, I thought, “Is there really a need for a 2nd and 3rd book?” Granted, I loved all of the characters but it seemed like everything…
Upon a recommendation from Mr. Scott Mosier (not directly, obviously), I decided to embrace the culture of Sweden and pick up Stieg Larsson’s blockbuster, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Before this book, my three biggest exposures to Sweden were Mats Sundin, the Swedish Chef from The Muppets and Drew Barrymore’s character from Wayne’s World…
I recently had the chance to interview author Xander Richards about his new book, C.O.A.S.T: An Act of Burial. Last week, we posted a review for the novel, you can check it out here. First of all, I’d like to thank you for being the very first author interviewed here at Every Read Thing! Thank…

However, without Martha’s blessing, this was never…

..But cave explorers like Vesley and Farr could not see the route and so could not anticipate the dangers, a partial list of which includes drowning, fatal falls, premature burial, asphyxiation, hypothermia, hurricane-force winds, electrocution, earthquake-induced collapses, poison gases and walls dripping with sulfuric or hydrochloric acid. There are also rabid bats, snakes, troglodytic scorpions…
School shootings. When events like this happen, you can’t turn a blind eye to it. Why? Because it’s everywhere. It’s unavoidable.
