Book Worms

What Is Book Worms?

Book Worms is the literary review arm of the Proudest Monkeys. While the Proudest Monkeys has previously only dabbled in book reviews, concentrating primarily on music and films, it seemed a prudent time to construct a personal home for such reviews. Of late, I have found myself re-energized by the written word, and exposure to authors such as Frank Herbert and Robert Jordan has only enhanced that feeling. This segment will be my attempt to share some thoughts about the novels I read, and it will hopefully provide you, the visitor, with some useful recommendations. So take a look around and let me know what you think...
