Ich schreibe nicht viele Buchbesprechungen, weil ich einfach die Zeit dafür nicht nehmen will. Aber manchmal gefällt mir ein Buch so gut, dass ich meine Gedanken doch verbreiten möchte. Also, meine Gedanken zu: Christian Heß: “Ohne Christus, ohne tiefstes Christentum … Continue reading

Denglish, Part 1
Now that I have reanimated my blog and am multi-tasking like crazy (I’ve read that multi-tasking only works for women in their twenties, and that ship has long since sailed, but I can’t resist the temptation), I want to start … Continue reading
Another great read
Hoping to get back to regular posts soon, I can at least talk about a wonderful middle-grade book that everyone would enjoy. “Ruff-Housed”, the brilliant successor to Susan J. Kroupa’s “Bed-Bugged”, “Out-Sniffed”, “Dognabbed”, and “Bad-Mouthed”, is simply wonderful! Doodle’s humorous … Continue reading
Two more entertaining books

Two entertaining books

I like Pizza Hut
So far I still haven’t had time to work on my blog about the fantastic Inetbib Conference in Berlin, and various practical constraints (promises made that have to be kept) will probably delay it a few more weeks. However, I … Continue reading
