Game of Thrones

What makes Game of Thrones so popular and appealing?  So far Season 4 has drawn 6.6 million viewers and it has been renewed for 2 more seasons for a 5th and 6th season according to Internet Movie Database. Am watching Game of Thrones at the moment. It is quite  riveting. Ooooh. I felt that.

Books - Fiction, Non-Fiction

I have been reading E L James Fifty Shades Darker. I am not impressed with the way she writes in the present tense. We were always taught not to write in this tense and it goes against the grain to see this in print. The music, however, has not abated but this blog is going to be strictly confined to books, what I have read over the years and what I am presently reading. Books and music, that is what my passion has been over the years and it branches out into so many fields.
