Smashwords Interview

What do you read for pleasure?
For pleasure I like to read a variety of things. These can range from a general fiction novel at bedtime, or on a lengthy road trip with my wife in the car. It may be a fiction article from Buzzfeed or the CS Monitor or some other publication about learning or Artificial Intelligence. Occasionally, I like to read a biography. I have an interest in Jewish writing on Torah portions and the meaning of specific Hebrew words. To me, reading is life long learning in an informal setting. No finals, no exams, no term papers but a lot of practical application over time! Oh, and something to blog about too.
What is your e-reading device of choice?
My E-reading device of preference is either my desktop computer or iPhone.
- The desktop computer, because I can view a PDF doc as HTML.
- The iPhone because I almost have figured out how to find the book and page in the book that I may be reading. Basic and simple have always worked well for me! I'm too stubborn to change now.

Smashwords book reviews by David Russell

  • Satisfaction: The Collection on March 31, 2021
    (no rating)
    I purchased the "Satisfaction" collection by author Tori Scott, as part of my reading plan for observing National Reading Month in the USA, which occurs every March. I like that the book involves life-long friends: Reggie, Cara, Gray and Sam, respectively. Tori gives her characters likes and dislikes different from the other, but what weaves them together is a history starting during elementary school years and continuing into what Developmental Psychology terms, Middle Adulthood. Each novella in this collection is 'just long enough' in my opinion to do the romance justice. Though I would prefer slightly less love making scenes, each is done respectfully without turning the intention into total animalistic fervor. A ponderous question underlying all the activity involves how do we measure success and accomplishment? All in all, the author provided a good read, some humorous moments and quite human moments, too. David C. Russell, Author
