Bookin’ with Sunny  is pleased to intro­duce two of our newest book reviewers:

Dan Erwine: Dan holds a BS in Telecom­mu­ni­ca­tions, San Diego State Uni­ver­sity and recently retired after four decades in radio broad­cast­ing. His back­ground includes San Diego sta­tions KFSD and NPR’s KPBS, and KUNR in Reno, NV. Over the years, Dan has pro­duced and hosted a num­ber of talk shows and inter­viewed over five thou­sand writ­ers in almost every genre and career, from such nota­bles as David Brin to Sea­mus Heaney, Allen Gins­berg, Judy Collins, Charl­ton Hes­ton and Wally Schirra. Dan is a comic book afi­cionado and has a spe­cial inter­est in film, sci­ence fic­tion and mys­tery. He lives with his wife in Reno, NV.

Dan has already reviewed the graphic novel Tumor and he joins Jacque­line Smay in review­ing a genre sel­dom cov­ered for a gen­eral readership.

Joanne Mal­lari: Joanne holds a BA in Eng­lish (Writ­ing) with a minor in Span­ish from the Uni­ver­sity of Nevada, Reno. She cur­rently teaches preschool at St. John’s Children’s Cen­ter. Her inter­ests include poetry, shower recitals, and danc­ing at ran­dom. Joanne lives in Reno, NV.

As of today, both Dan and Joanne have posted their first reviews for BWS. It is great fun to have two more areas of inter­est to cover. Joanne is a life­saver because poetry is not the eas­i­est genre to cover. We just posted her review of Lucille Clifton’s book, Mercy.

    Wel­come! (throws con­fetti) :-)

    Joanne’s review of Mercy is impres­sive, espe­cially con­sid­er­ing the dif­fi­culty of review­ing works/​collections of poetry. Glad to see she’ll be con­tribut­ing to Bookin’.
