<div style="text-align: justify;">
In your mind, what qualities constitute a good father? Does it have anything to do with the amount of pocket money he gives you as he goes off to work? What about when he drops you off to school without kissing you because it would deflate his macho image?</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I strongly believe that it is very important that fathers (not sperm donors) spend quality time with their children, grand children or young persons. Buying the latest gadget or even a car does not necessarily endear your child to you as a parent.</div>

When I am reminiscing about my own father, I tend to fondly remember the times I have spent on his lap in the rocking chair or when I would go with him in the pasture to bring in the cows to give them water. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The book entitled The Father by author Brett Williams allows you to ponder on how you were treated by your father whilst growing up. I completed the following review on 2014.09.17. <br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<b><br /></b>
<b>The Father</b> is an interesting story about three generations of the Whitaker family. Joseph Whitaker was a farmer. He raised his son John; John raised his son Morgan; and Morgan named his child John, giving him his grandfather's name. Author Brett Williams traced the lineage of this poor Midwest farmer, Joseph. He showed how each successive father influenced his offspring socially, psychologically and intellectually. Joseph was very strict as a father. He was a dedicated farmer and he believed that tilling the land was the ultimate job to have. John did not share his father's love of the land to that extent. He wanted to get as far away from the countryside as possible. As a child, he had a love for animals and nature. He served as a soldier in the army in World War II. He got married after his stint there and had twin sons, plus another son Morgan. Morgan was a different child. He was inquisitive and intuitive. He followed his passions of science and theatre as a man. He met the woman of his dreams, got married and had his son John. John had both his grandfather's traits as well as his dad's. At thirteen years of age, he was an avid reader, always questioning the status quo. Like Morgan, as a man he set off to see the world his way.<br />
<br />
<b>The Father</b> is a book that allows you to be introspective. As you read it, you wonder what kind of legacy you are leaving for your kids. I love the attention to detail that author Brett Williams placed on each child's upbringing. This suggests that this period of a child's life is very important. At this juncture, persons who have influenced the child play a role in the way that child matures into an adult. It also affects the choices that child makes and so on. The language used is simple and easy to understand. I love the way in which the author showcased the cultural differences of the generations. In a way, this can transform the novel into a learning tool instead of just a form of entertainment. Readers would be able to glean some truths about the proverbial generation gap. Most persons realize that there are fundamental differences between the way persons of the younger and older generations operate. For example, when I was younger, my mother taught me to iron bed sheets. I don't teach my children to do this because nowadays the sheets available for purchase are wash and wear. When I told my children that I used to do this, they were amazed. This clearly demonstrates the differences of opinion in my generation. Overall, <b>The Father</b> is a good read. I recommend it to all readers.<br />
<br />
What will your legacy be?<br />

How many of you remember that movie that highlighted bondage, hidden desires and fetishes?<br />

Author H. Tanhide explored the world of dominatrix women called Femanistria in his book entitled Welcome to Femanistria.<br />
<br />
I did a review of this book on 9th September 2014. Here is my review:-<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #292929; font-family: "lato" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Welcome to Femanistria is a bold look at the life of engineer Harry Tanhide in a world filled with dominatrix women. Harry stumbled upon the town Femanistria by accident as he was hiking through a European forest. He encountered the leader of Femanistria on horseback. He was immediately drawn to her- hypnotized even. He realized that he wanted to be possessed by her at all costs when he recognized that she was a dominatrix. Harry had had previous sexual experiences with dominatrices so he was not alarmed by her presence or demands. Harry’s introduction to Femanistria was filled with lots of punishment. According to author Tanhide, he was spanked unmercifully, locked away in a cell, completely humiliated. Emotionally, he was broken down until he cried. He realized that the males in Femanistria were regarded as the weaker sex and were to be utilized as servants of the Femanistrian females. Harry was able to withstand the treatment meted out to him and his spirit was not broken by the Femanistrian life.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #292929; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; outline: none !important; padding: 0px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #292929; font-family: "lato" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Welcome to Femanistria by H. Tanhide is an eye-opener in terms of the dominatrix world. The book is a bold expression of extremist life patterns of domineering women. The illustration on the cover is tame in comparison with the shocking revelations in the novel. Author Tanhide did a good job in his portrayal of the main character. The suspense is very palpable and increased with each chapter. I did not want to put down the book! I was caught up in the seductive plot and became enthralled by it. This clearly demonstrates the creative genius of the author. As I was reading, I wondered “does this really happen?” The descriptive details are superb. I found the contrast between the details of the men versus the women interesting. Obviously, the emphasis on the concise descriptions of the women was deliberate so as to blend in with the pervasive theme of the novel – women rule. Overall, the book was a real shock to my system but it was a captivating read nonetheless. Kudos to author Tanhide who kept me spellbound from beginning to end!</span><br />

Have you ever had a a colleague at work that you enjoy spending your lunch breaks with? Or even laughed and joked with that person whilst shopping around for the latest deals in nearby shops?</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then out of the blue, the two of you clash over a trivial matter that on reflection doesn't mean as much as your daily friendship? Who knows, this new friction could be attributed to some form of office gossip or snide remark from a jealous bystander.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Would you allow a sweater to come between you and your buddy?!</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
That exact scenario occurred at Christmas time in the novel<b> Reindeer Wars</b> by author Liese Sherwood-Fabre. Tina met a nice gentleman Brian at her workplace. Her budding interest in him turned to rage after seeing him bedecked in <b>her </b>sweater.</div>
</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I completed this review on 8 September 2014. I do encourage you to not let reality mirror fiction. It's only a sweater! Here is my review:-</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #292929; font-family: "lato" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><b>Reindeer Wars</b> by Liese Sherwood-Fabre is a delightful romance surrounding Tina, a claims adjuster. Tina literally bumped into Brian Foster, a new salesman at the firm Judicious Insurance. Tina immediately felt an attraction to Brian. He invited Tina on a date which she accepted. Unknown to Brian, Tina was the reigning sweater queen. Each year at the Xmas party, Tina won the sweater competition. At the current Xmas party, Tina turned cold after seeing Brian in her sweater with the reindeer face affixed to it. She was livid with rage and assumed that Brian was the one who beat her bid on the auction website Ebids. Brian ended up winning the competition. Tina was deflated. Brian’s Aunt Sue, who met Tina, turned up at Tina’s door. Will her explanation be enough?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; color: #292929; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin: 0px; outline: none !important; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #292929; font-family: "lato" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><b>Reindeer Wars</b> is an enjoyable book. The plot revolves around an office setting. The language is colloquial and easy to understand. I love the competition scenario in the book. What is also interesting is the competition within a competition as portrayed by the two main characters. This gives the reader an idea about the office politics of the firm. This book also portrays the thin line between love and hate that occurred with the two main characters. What is also evident is that misunderstandings can likely occur when persons make assumptions. Author Sherwood-Fabre cleverly displays this theme in her book. I also love the illustration of the reindeer on the cover. It is very colourful and endearing and blends in with the overall storyline. I love the traditional way that the characters dated for the first time. Nowadays, most persons have strayed away from really getting to know each other’s personality while dating. This a refreshing move on the part of the author. This book is a good read and one I recommend it to all lovers of romance.</span></div>

<b>Selena, You’re Beautiful!</b> is a short story focused on the issue of incest. Selena and her current boyfriend Trent went out for dinner one night. Trent realized that Selena was being rather distant with him and wasn’t letting him get close to her emotionally. She finally opens up and confides in him about her uncle who sexually assaulted her when she was young. When her father had to work long hours, he left her with his brother. Selena had also confided in a pastor at that time, but he only told her that she had to make a choice - either keep it a secret or confront both her uncle and her father. What will Trent's reaction be and how will Selena face the future?</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #292929; font-family: "lato" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><b>Selena, You’re Beautiful!</b> is an emotionally charged novel. Author Stanley Buford did a good job in highlighting the main character’s personal relationship. The language used is simple and the average reader can understand it. I love the beautiful picture of the female on the cover page. It really stands out. Despite the fact that the book only has two chapters, it is very interesting and revealing. As the adage says, good thing come in small packages. The sensitive topic that the author presented indicates his creative prowess. It was delicately handled and I appreciate his bold move in exposing this serious issue. The plot is easy to follow as well as being entertaining. I believe that the novel displays the importance of having a caring person intercede on your behalf in situations which are emotionally difficult.

There is usually a quick solution for warming up yourself in the winter months like using ear muffs, woolly hats, insulated coats,etc. Even the heating in the cars can provide a little oasis for drivers.</div>

Your heart is cold because your partner forgot that it's your anniversary and shows up when the celebratory chocolate has already melted. Or you invite your best friend over for lunch and he decided to cancel via a text message at the very last minute. Ya mean he couldn't call?!</div>

Surely a woolly hat will <b>not</b> suffice in any of those situations!</div>

Many of us will go through feelings of depression, anxiety or rage at times. However, the key to getting over these situations in life is having someone to confide in. I'm sure that the character Venus in the novel entitled <b>Cold World - Audaciously Belle</b> felt all those emotions as she found herself pregnant at 15 with no proper role models around her. On top of that her boyfriend was shot and killed leaving her all alone. Who will she confide in?</div>

This book is written by Shanitra Gardner. I gave it 4 stars. Here is my review:-</div>

<b>Cold World: Audaciously Belle</b> is a fast paced story surrounding Venus Rose, a gullible teenager who lives in the projects. Venus has been exposed to the gangster life as a result of living with her uncles from time to time. For the most part, her growing up years have been very unstable. She grew up without the presence of a caring father. She often saw her mum and dad fighting and quarrelling, hurling indecent language at each other. Her mum worked irregular hours and many times Venus and her sister were left alone unsupervised. Unfortunately, Venus got pregnant at fifteen years of age. She had the baby and her mother and other relatives chipped in to provide financial support. Her boyfriend assisted as well, but he was a gangster and not very reliable. Venus regretted that she had turned her boyfriend away the same night that he died, gunned down in the street. Venus was grief stricken.</div>

<b>Cold World: Audaciously Belle</b> is an interesting novel. It is written in the first person. I like the fact that author Shanitra Gardner included portions of poetry in the entire book. This gives the story a realistic feel. You can get a deeper understanding of the anguish and pain that the main character feels. She is really crying out for help. I appreciate that the author divulges the intimate details of the character's life. This is important because you can clearly see how the events shaped her personality and future decisions. The reader can relate to this because our initial experiences in the home environment affect us all on an emotional level. If, for example, a child grows up with the loving attention of its parents, that child might not need to seek that love outside of the home. The language used is simple and punctuated with curse words to reflect the type of environment being showcased. I thoroughly enjoyed the book. It is a warning to parents to be more responsible in the upbringing of their children.</div>

I wrote this review on 29 August 2014. Here is my review:-</div>

<div style="color: #292929; font-family: Lato, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; text-align: justify;">
<b>Unbridled</b> by Susannah Woods is an enjoyable story based on the escapades of Kathryn Westcott. Kathryn is a lady of honour who was betrothed to Seth McGregor. Seth was chosen for Kathryn by her brother Robert. Seth was also from a well to do Scottish family, therefore Robert felt that this was a good match. Kathryn, affectionately known as Kate, could not bear marrying someone that she did not love, so she decided to run away from her hometown of Aberdeen, Scotland. She worked in bars and taverns to make some money. Kate met Peter, a soldier who befriended her and helped her to get her first job in a tavern. Feeling obligated to Peter, Kate agreed to be engaged to him. However, her true desire was to escape to Canada. She hid herself aboard a docked ship which was actually headed for America. Kate met Jack on board this vessel. As a result of the ongoing war between America and Britain, Kate chose to go with Jack to work as a housekeeper on his farm. Kate fell in love with Jack, but Peter found Kate and took her away. Will Kate and Jack, amidst all the work obligations and instances of turmoil, find each other again?</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="color: #292929; font-family: "lato" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><b>Unbridled</b> is a fast paced novel with a historical slant. It is filled with suspense from the beginning and this encourages the reader to follow the storyline. The language is a bit formal to match the era of the plot. I liked the fact that author Susannah Woods kept separating the two main characters and reuniting them throughout the book. This clever move serves to perpetuate the adage that love conquers all. This theme is relevant because love is an element that remains constant, regardless of time or separation. I appreciated the portrayal of the main female character as a tower of strength. Despite all of the dangerous situations she encountered, she was focused and resilient. I found this quality to be an admirable one. I believe that in reality more persons should be like her. I also loved the fact that the author included a timeline and location at the beginning of each chapter. This helps to sustain the reader’s interest in the plot. This book is an interesting read. I recommend it to all readers who love historical dramas.</span></div>

How many of us ladies especially (men too!) secretly wish that they could be as sexually satisfied as the main characters in the romance novels like Harlequin, Mills & Boon and even those written by Zane?</div>

Sometimes, some persons think that they are relatively happy in their current relationship and then they meet someone who makes them come alive. According to author Elodie Parkes in her book entitled <b>Unexpected Storm</b>, Holly is actually on an exotic beach holiday with her boyfriend when this exact scenario occurred.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I completed this review on 25 August 2014. It is a good read even though it is only has 35 pages. Here is my review:-</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Unexpected Storm</b> by Elodie Parkes is a fast paced story based on the summer romance between Holly and Will. Holly is vacationing with her beau, Rob, along with her friends Jill and Marcus. While sheltering in a beach hut during the pouring rain, Holly felt a hand caressing her buttocks. She automatically assumed that it was Rob. When she did look up, she was stunned to see that it was a complete stranger being so familiar with her anatomy. Holly and Rob had only been dating for eight months. Holly thought that they could rekindle their strained relationship during this holiday period. Out of the blue, Holly found herself very much attracted to this stranger, Will. The physical attraction between them was instant and mutual. Both Will and Holly succumbed to their attraction to each other and made love every chance they got. But does pure passion lead to commitment and happily ever after?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Tahoma, Arial; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px;" /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Unexpected Storm</b> is a short, sexy novel. The beginning was really unexpected. It took me literally by surprise! This tactic is very effective because it spurs on the average reader to become more engrossed in the story. I certainly did. The use of erotica was tastefully implemented. The language is colloquial and easy to understand. I love the fact that author Elodie Parkes fully developed the characters instead of just giving superficial highlights of them. The contrast between the rainy conditions and the scorching physicality between the two main characters is very clever and exotic. Any reader would love to be a willing participant in the passionate embraces showcased at the beginning of the novel. The sultry cover photo also helps to perpetuate sexual tension and create a vivid impact on the reader. I also appreciate the fact that both points of view of the main characters were included in the novel. Most of the time, the female’s thoughts are highlighted in romance novels. This change from the norm is a plus because it gives the realistic impression that men experience inner emotional turmoil in relationships. This book is hot! I recommend it to all readers who need a vicarious shot of sexy romance in their lives.</span></div>

When was the last time that you tried on your son's cricket cap or party hat? Do you think that you are too old to do this or that it is nonsense?<br />
<br />
Or have you carved out some time lately to sit down and watch a cartoon or funny movie with your toddler?<br />
<br />
My aim is not to castigate anyone for not doing any of the above but<br />
to highlight an essential element in the way we perceive our world - <b>perspective</b>.<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=tsK9ecvo8ds&offerid=382587.564&subid=0&type=4" style="clear: left; display: inline !important; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="e.l.f. cosmetics" border="0" src="http://ad.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/show?id=tsK9ecvo8ds&bids=382587.564&subid=0&type=4&gridnum=1" height="40" width="320" /></a><br />
<br />
Even the tall, lanky character in the animated movie <b>Ratatouille</b> mentioned the importance of perspective when reviewing life in general.<br />
<br />
If we do not take the time to see things from a different angle, we can end up jumping to the wrong conclusions. This is so true for the character Iris in the children's book by Helen Rose entitled <b>The Upside of Iris</b>. She has an eye defect that causes her to see the world upside down. I completed this review on 18 August 2016. Here is my review:-<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>The Upside of Iris</b>
is a delightful children’s book showcasing the life of Iris who suffers from an
eye defect better known as “upside-down-it is.”
According to author Helen Rose, Iris sees the world upside down. As a result, Iris finds that she cannot climb
stairs very well and avoids them like the plague. Her sensitive nature enables her to
appreciate other persons like her friend Charlie. Charlie doesn’t speak much but he truly
understands Iris’s dilemma and values her friendship. As Ms. Rose stated, Charlie is a friend who “understands
without words and accepts without questions.”
Unfortunately, Iris’s wicked twin step-sisters intervened and split up
Iris and Charlie with bold faced lies.
Charlie was told that Iris had a new boyfriend and had moved on. As fate would have it, this couple reunited later
in life and their romance blossomed once again.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>The Upside of Iris</b>
is a positive piece of fiction enveloping two persons with disabilities. Author Helen Rose has tastefully merged
several themes into this novel for young readers. For example, she touched on the pervasive
theme of good versus evil exemplified by the personalities of the main
character and her siblings. I love the
fact that Ms. Rose placed emphasis on the reality that the heroine remained
true to herself. This is relevant in
today’s world as stressful conditions can persuade some of us to switch our
personalities like the clothes we wear which in turn can lead to further
problems. The colorful illustrations as well as the font of the words help to
make the book very appealing and encourage readers to keep turning the
pages. The positive romantic ending is
also a plus. This really inspires us to look within and desire true love. This is a lovely story and I encourage
readers of all ages to indulge in this book.</div>

Today's topic is considered a taboo one. You don't normally hear women especially talking openly about what type of contraceptive they use or prefer.<br />
<br />
However, I am going to be bold with this post. Most women enjoy sexual activity. Indulging in sexual intercourse should be enjoyable and persons <b>should</b> also engage in a responsible manner i.e use some form of contraception.<br />
<br />
This is vital especially if women do not want to become pregnant. Many options are available including the IUD or intrauterine device.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, some women do not realize that the IUD can cause other health issues. Author Miriam Jameson was caught unawares by this phenomenon.<br />
<br />
In her book entitled <b>Surviving the IUD: The Genesis</b>, Ms Jameson provided details of the ordeal she experienced by inserting an IUD. Shouldn't there be a warning label attached to each unit sold to women just like the cigarette packets?<br />
<br />
This memoir that I reviewed is very informative and is an eye opener for women who willingly accept contraceptive methods from various doctors and pharmacies. I completed my analysis on 23 August 2014. Here is my review:-<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Surviving the IUD: The Genesis</b> by author Miriam Jameson showcases her personal gynecological issues with an IUD. Ms. Jameson reveals the initial awful experience which took place in her doctor’s office. The insertion of the IUD device was so painful that Ms. Jameson passed out. She ended up having to depend on pain killers in order to get through the ordeal. This self-medication became a daily ritual for her as the pain refused to subside. She also had continuous spotting or bleeding. She went from doctor to doctor, trying to resolve the medical issues that seemed to be increasing. One doctor recommended a dermatologist; another doctor said that she should see a therapist and so on. Her frustration continued to rise. She even got a bald spot in her hair which pushed her over the edge emotionally. The end result was that she decided to remove the IUD and allow her body to heal itself. Her goal was to de-stress totally, think positively and move on with her life, supported by her husband and friends.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Tahoma, Arial; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px;" />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Surviving the IUD: The Genesis </b>reveals a phenomenon that can happen to any female. Firstly, an IUD is a foreign object. Some women don’t have problems with them. Clearly some women have experienced the opposite. The use of open ended questions in the chapters is effective because they help the reader to feel the emotional trauma that the main character feels. Author Miriam Jameson was very descriptive in relating the saga which unfolded. This gives a realistic feel to the story. I appreciate the huge lettering of the subheadings. This conveys the swelling of emotional distress that the author felt. The language used was simple and easy to understand. I love the fact that the author was very revealing when she was expressing her feelings. This tactic is useful because any reader can identify with her ordeal and heed any relevant advice given. <b>Surviving the IUD: The Genesis</b> is a personal account of a traumatic episode. I recommend the book especially to all female readers. These readers might encounter a similar fate with regards to birth control devices or medication.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Most women who bear healthy children eagerly look forward to raising them to the best of their ability. However, every mother is not a dedicated parent.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Parenting is a major responsibility. When they are babies, you have to get up and nurse/feed them when you are tired; you have to learn to differentiate which cry means "my pamper is wet" or "I have air, please use colic medication" even when you are frustrated.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When they are toddlers, you can't wait for them to walk so that you don't have to lift them up <b>everywhere</b> you go! I distinctly remember when a colleague asked me if I was lifting weights or working out because my arms were showing muscular definition. I laughed and told him that it was just from lifting my son - no gym attendance whatsoever!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
Experience and education really helps new mothers to become more comfortable with this new chapter in their lives. Author Laurie WJN also recommends certain techniques to employ when coaching children. In her book <b>Fearless & Feminine: Raising Confident Daughters </b>readers can find helpful ideas to pass on to their charges. <br />
<br />
I completed my review of this novel on 23 August 2014. I found it to be very informative. Here is my review:-<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Fearless and Feminine: Raising Confident Daughters </b>is a practical book specifically dedicated to parents who have daughters. Author Laurie WJN relates how she raised her two daughters and shares her actual experiences throughout the years. She delves into little anecdotes, for example, when the entire family partakes of a bowl of candy as their traditional fun activity during the holiday season. She goes on to stress the importance of doing activities as a family unit and making sure that you treat each child as a unique individual without making comparisons. Instilling discipline is another piece of advice offered by author Laurie WJN. You have to be firm and not spoil your children by giving them the latest video games, cell phones and other gadgets. It is also important that you teach them responsibility by allowing them to purchase items they desire using their allowances or pocket money. In essence, the book enforces the best ways in which to bring up your daughters as well-rounded, confident citizens.</span></div>
<br style="background-color: white; font-family: Tahoma, Arial; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px;" />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Fearless and Feminine: Raising Confident Daughters</b> is a very informative book. It highlights some of the techniques utilized by the author to help her children gain maximum self-confidence. I love the fact that author Laurie WJN kept the chapters short and sweet. This encourages the reader to follow the storyline with ease and read at a faster pace. I appreciate the sharing of intimate family details. This tactic is clever because it indicates that the author is truthful about her experiences and readers will readily relate to the ideas being offered. The use of subheadings is effective because it identifies the actual subject matter that is being highlighted. I believe that the basic information being shared can be geared towards boys as well. The advice is relevant and practical therefore, in my opinion, it does not have gender specific boundaries. The language used is colloquial and very easy to understand. I recommend this book to all readers, especially those who are in the process of raising children.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Falling in love is a feeling that cannot be described. Most persons who are captivated by their partners would tell you that they desire to be in the other person's presence most of the time or that they constantly crave their company at parties or other social events.</div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
What happens after a red hot romance wanes? Do you still dream about that person? Do you regret that the two of you split up and you both tried to move on with different partners?</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The main character Eric in the book entitled <b>Lost Love </b>was probably asking himself these same questions. An old flame of his tried to make contact. He too tried to reach out to her as he was unsure of her motive for contacting him. Did he do the right thing?</div>
<br />
This novel written by author Sherrie Sushko is filled with suspense. I did this review on 17 August 2014. Read my analysis below:-<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Lost Love</b> is a delightful suspense novel based on an old friendship between Eric Dunns and his former schoolmate Larissa. Eric recently became engaged to his girlfriend Abby. He began receiving disturbing phone calls in the early hours of the morning. He was in a bar with one of his friends and he swore that he saw Larissa there. Eric even found it uncanny when his friend Scott mentioned to him that he was also thinking about Larissa. Eric’s mother contacted Eric and told him that she had a letter for him. It was a letter from Larissa. Eric knew that he had to find Larissa because his instinct told him that she might be in trouble. He began to search for any leads to her whereabouts, using the postmark on the envelope. Eventually, he made contact with one of Larissa’s former employers. This led him to Larissa and her boyfriend Ned’s house. Ned was drunk and disoriented, saying that Larissa was trying to break into the house. But was she, and where is Larissa now?</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Lost Love</b> is a very interesting and fast paced story. I could not put the book down. Sherrie Sushko’s wicked writer’s web really drew me in! I sympathized with the main character throughout the book and shared all of the emotional turmoil that he was experiencing. Sherrie Sushko did an excellent job in developing the plot. I love the fact that the author formatted the novel using short chapters. This encourages the reader to read more quickly and become more addicted to the storyline. Utilizing one-sentence paragraphs at the end of most chapters was a clever tactic. This helps to promote the aura of suspense in the book. The language in the story is colloquial and the average reader can understand the plot. I appreciate the cliff-hanger at the end of the story. It was totally unexpected and exposes the creative genius of the author. The theme of lost love versus present love was thoroughly explored. This makes you wonder about your own personal relationships. You might ask yourself if you have made the right decisions in life in terms of choosing a life partner or ending a relationship. I thoroughly enjoyed reading Lost Love and I recommend it to all readers who love suspense novels.</span></div>

Who doesn't want to be rich? I am sure that most of us wish at some point and time that we could pick the winning lottery numbers and live the carefree life?<br />
<br />
Who needs to worry about utility bills and car payments when you now have a few thousand dollars to splurge?<br />
<br />
Imagine that one day you wake up and discover that your entire world has changed. You have gone from struggling to make ends meet to being the recipient of funds for college and extra cash!<br />
<br />
According to author Scott Czechlewski in his book entitled <b>Family Harmony</b>, this good fortune was thrust upon the heroine Amelia Harmony. This rags to riches story reminds us that each family might have skeletons in the closet. In this instance, an illegitimate child is the skeleton in the well to do Lashley family. I completed this review on 13 August 2014. I gave it 4 stars. My review is as follows:-<br />

<b>Family Harmony</b> is a suspense novel surrounding Amelia Harmony and her relationship with Ellis Lashley. Amelia and Ellis are from different corners of the town of Myler. Ellis is related to the well-to-do Lashley family whereas Amelia’s parents are poor and are barely making ends meet. Ellis is an only child who is extremely intelligent. Amelia was assigned to babysit Ellis at times and they became each other’s confidante. Before his sudden and suspicious death, Garner Lashley summoned Amelia to his study and gave her a key. Amelia realized that the key belonged to a safety deposit box. To her bewilderment, she discovered that Garner had left her four cheques for enrollment in university as well as lots of cash. He had also left a case containing a peacock-shaped hairpin, along with two photos. Further inspection led to the discovery that Garner and her grandmother were romantically involved. To boot, Amelia was shocked when she found out that her own mother was Garner’s child. In addition, Ellis was not the biological child of Chelie Lashley and Chelie Lashley was not even a person of honour. Other shocking revelations were manifested as well. In the end, Amelia learned the truth about her biological parentage.</div>

<span itemprop="description" style="padding: 0px;"><b>Family Harmony</b> is an interesting novel about family secrets. The story is very introspective. The influence of the main character induces the reader to focus on his own family history and wonder what secrets are hidden in the proverbial family closet. I love the emphasis author Scott Czechlewski placed on the interpersonal relationships in the book. This actually sets the stage for the startling revelations in the storyline. The language is informal and is quite easy to understand. I love the descriptive approach used by the author. This tactic gives the story a realistic and comfortable feel. The use of contrast concerning the rich vs poor element was very effective. This theme was very prominent. The southern setting blends well with the storyline. In essence, it makes you wonder whether you would treat others with an air of disdain or equality if you were rich and famous. I love the ironic twist at the end of the story concerning the fates of the families. I almost punched my fist in the air when I read this part of the story! The other pervasive theme of good overcoming evil was very entertaining as well. Kudos to author Scott Czechlewski for a job well done. This book is an awesome read.</span></div>

Did you ever question God as to why your child would be sick on the very day you have an important exam? On top of that, you forgot to take the text book along with you to the doctor's office and you are berating yourself. You are saying "Oh dear, I could be reading some notes whilst I am here. I hope I pass this exam." <br />
<br />
Well, this last scenario did happen to me whilst I was studying. My son was just over 3 months old. As you know, life is not straight forward and trials and tribulation will occur from time to time. I believe that once you have faith in God that things will work out in your best interest,you can breathe a little easier.<br />

Author Matupit Darius is a pastor and at one point <b>he </b>questioned God when he lost his daughter in a horrific bus accident. A native of Papua New Guinea, Pastor Darius wrote this memoir. It is called <b>Groping for God</b>. I completed my review of this novel on 9 August 2014. Here is my review:-<br />
<br />
<ins class="adsbygoogle" data-ad-client="ca-pub-1866979865935592" data-ad-format="auto" data-ad-slot="7316699863" style="display: block;"></ins><table border="0" cellpadding="0" itemid="/book-review/groping-for-god" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/Review" style="padding: 0px; text-align: justify; width: 578px;"><tbody style="padding: 0px;">
<tr style="padding: 0px;"><td class="black-text-review" style="color: black; font-family: tahoma, arial; font-size: 14px; font-stretch: normal; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; line-height: normal; padding: 25px 0px 0px; text-decoration: none;" valign="top"><div style="padding: 0px; width: 574px;">
<span itemprop="description" style="padding: 0px;"><b>Groping for God</b> is a personal, heart-wrenching story about Pastor Matupit Darius from Rabaul in Papua New Guinea. Pastor Darius lost his daughter Martina in a tragic bus accident. Pastor Darius was forced to escort Martina’s body to the hospital. All the while, he was in a state of deep shock. He couldn’t believe that a few minutes ago, he and Martina were laughing, enjoying themselves. Suddenly, their bus was tumbling down a ravine, killing his only daughter. According to author Darius, he (Darius) was so accustomed to extending support to his church members in their time of need. He felt out of sorts now that he was on the receiving end. He was accepting telephone calls and condolence greetings from friends and even strangers. Pastor Darius had to struggle emotionally to maintain a sense of equilibrium. He was angry with God for taking Martina, yet he knew and believed in God’s promise that He would not allow His people to bear burdens that they could not handle. He realized that he had to immerse himself in God’s word, especially the book of Job, in order to be at peace.<br style="padding: 0px;" /><br style="padding: 0px;" /><b>Groping for God</b> is a short novel outlining the grieving process experienced by Pastor Darius. The language is simple and colloquial. It is easy to understand. The book is written in the first person. This tactic essentially allows the reader to become fully immersed in the story. I love the inclusion of the photos. This enhances the dramatic effect of the tragic circumstances. The reader is inclined to empathize with the author and feel his pain. Author Darius utilizes bold blue sub-headings which are very effective because they assist in formatting the story. They also keep the reader in tune with the thought patterns of the main character. I also appreciate the various short questions interspersed in the book. This allows the reader to identify with the main character and experience the changing states of raw emotion. The use of contrast is clever. The story begins on a somber note yet, at the end, author Darius relates that his faith in God encourages him to put things in perspective. He can see that God is still in control, despite his loss. In essence, he found the silver lining under his dark clouds. I recommend this book to all readers who are going through trying times and need spiritual upliftment.</span></div>

I know that as children we are taught that we must speak only when we are spoken to.<br />
<br />
However, as we get older, we should recognize that this age old instruction does not apply to all situations.<br />
<br />
Take for instance the recent cases in Barbados where minors are being found dead with telling signs of abuse on their bodies. Who are the culprits? When will real justice be achieved for the grieving parents?<br />
<br />
Who has the nerve or gall to speak out? The true perpetrators will be only be caught when caring community members decide to discard this foolish rule of keeping silent.<br />

Well, author Cindy Vine wrote a book based on a similar incident of child neglect. This book is entitled <b>Hush Baby</b>. I wrote the review of this interesting novel on 6 August 2014. I gave it 4 stars. Here is my review:-<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Hush Baby</b> by author C. Vine is a gripping tale surrounding Kyle Rushton and his sour relationship with his live-in girlfriend Marlene. They have a son, Max, who is three years old. Max means the world to Kyle. Unfortunately, Kyle’s see-saw relationship with Marlene was taking a toll on him and Kyle made the difficult decision to leave Marlene and Max and move in with his sister Sylvie. Kyle was forced to seek out a lawyer after Marlene blocked him from picking up Max from daycare. Things rapidly escalated with social services becoming involved as well. After establishing a proper visitation schedule to have access to Max, Kyle received a phone call that Max was seriously ill. On rushing to the hospital, he found out that Max had ingested rat poison. Unfortunately, Max died. Kyle became very depressed; however, he had emotional support from Sylvie and close friends. He later discovered that Marlene had given birth to two other children who also died mysteriously. Further digging led to the discovery of more secrets about Marlene’s upbringing and school life.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Hush Baby</b> is an interesting read about personal relationships. Author C. Vine did an excellent job developing the plot. The story began at a slow pace, however, it quickened in the latter half of the novel. I love the unexpected twists that were included in the story. In my opinion, the story literally took on a different feel and transformed into a suspense thriller. This tactic is very cleverly orchestrated by author C. Vine. It propels the reader to become more engrossed in the plot. I did not want to put down the book! The language is simple and easy to understand. What was refreshing was that the novel was written from the viewpoint of a male as opposed to a female. Normally, most stories outlining relationship woes are slanted in the favour of females. This welcome diversion from the norm speaks well for equality of the sexes. I loved the descriptive passages in the novel. I applaud author C. Vine for keeping her readers on their toes, wondering how the story would finally end. The staccato formatting of the final chapter was a good move. It suggests that the reader should accept unpredictability in the plot. I recommend this book to all readers who love suspense.</span></div>

<br />
<br />
<br />
Suppose you came home from work and found your front door wide open. What would you do? Panic right?<br />
<br />
What about if you arrived at the airport from a relaxing vacation, go to the atm machine and find that you don't have a cent on your account? How will you pay the attendant to move your car from the car park when it is midnight? <br />
<br />
Or lets say that your bank account got hacked and you find that you don't have any money to pay the bills that the postman keeps dropping off? When you go to the bank, they tell you it is going to take <b>3 months</b> for them to rectify the problem and pay day is soo far away?<br />
<br />
Well, the last scenario actually happened to me a few years ago. I absolutely felt like pulling my hair out / selling my locks! Situations like these can make you panic and catch stress and worry incessantly, etc. What if there is no one to assist you in your time of need?<br />
<br />
However author Ugochukwu Uche has a solution for those persons who do have panic attacks. He is a firm believer that you can wave goodbye to panic attacks. His book entitled <b>How To End Your Panic Attacks </b>gives descriptive details about this reaction to stressful situations.<br />
<br />
I completed this review on 8th March 2014. Here is my review:<br />
<br />
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" itemid="/book-review/how-to-end-your-panic-attacks" itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/Review" style="background-color: white; color: black; font-family: Tahoma, Arial; font-size: 14px; padding: 0px; width: 578px;"><tbody style="padding: 0px;">
<tr style="padding: 0px;"><td class="black-text-review" style="font-stretch: normal; padding: 25px 0px 0px;" valign="top"><div style="padding: 0px; width: 574px;">
<span itemprop="description" style="padding: 0px;"><b>How to End Your Panic Attacks</b> is a comprehensive study outlining the actual description of a panic attack and the accompanying symptoms experienced by persons susceptible to these attacks. Author Ugo Uche also reveals the differences between panic attacks and other mental disorders like post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and stage fright, for example. In addition, a concise synopsis of the structure of the brain is included. Emphasis is placed on the amygdala, which is referred to as the emotional hub of the brain. This important gland also controls the amount of fear that humans experience. A group of nerve endings connected to the amygdala can be analyzed to determine the amount of anxiety a person is feeling. The thicker the nerve fibers, the less anxious the individual will be. The latter part of the book thoroughly explains practical ways to conquer panic attacks without medication, using visualization and mindfulness.<br style="padding: 0px;" /><br style="padding: 0px;" /><b>How to End Your Panic Attacks</b> is very informative and practical for the average reader. I find the examples outlined to be very useful. I love the descriptive analogy about the lobster being placed in the hot or cold water. This drives home the point that individuals can ultimately lessen their panic attacks by controlling their response to their environment. The language of the study is colloquial and quite easy to follow. I applaud author Ugo Uche for utilizing simple language to describe the clinical nature of panic attacks. This helps to convey the theme that panic attacks can be cured without visiting a psychiatrist for weeks on end. I believe that some illustrations could have been inserted in the section on strategies. This would have made this portion of the book more appealing and promote faster absorption of the material. I love the scenarios used throughout the book to convey pertinent points. I recommend this book to all readers, especially those suffering from stress and anxiety.</span></div>

Maybe you don't feel enthusiastic about your chosen area of work. Maybe you have gotten laid off and don't know what to do next? Maybe your fiancee just gets up one morning and says she leaving you for someone else?<br />
<br />
That feeling of malaise has hit you like a huge set of bricks and instead of crying out to God, you confide in your close friend and he /she talks your business all about the work office.<br />
<br />
In this scenario, you might feel dead emotionally, but you know that you are alive because your heart is still beating and you other vital organs are functioning somewhat.<br />
<br />
Well, imagine if you were the main character in this book entitled <b>Burn The Dead</b>. This book written by author Steven Jenkins chronicles the life of Robert who burns dead people for a living. He opens a body bag one morning and finds his wife in the bag! He must try to get back to his neighbourhood in Crandale which now resembles a scene from Walking Dead. Persons infected with this unusual disease feeds on living healthy persons.<br />
<br />
Here is my review of <b>Burn the Dead</b> which I completed on 22 July 2014. I gave it 4 stars.<br />
<br />
<b>Burn the Dead</b> is a fast paced suspense novel that revolves around Robert, a regular guy who works for a company responsible for an incinerator. Robert burns dead people for a living. On a daily basis, he burns people infected with the Necro-Morbus disease which turns humans into zombies. He lives in Crandale in the United Kingdom with his wife Anna and his son Sammy.Unfortunately, Robert lets his curiosity get the better of him and he starts peeping at the corpses in the body bags. This day in particular, he actually views his wife Anna in a body bag! His emotional turmoil begins and he is agitated and extremely anxious to find Sammy and thereby protect him from the infected humans or "Necs". Author Jenkins relates Robert's arduous task of searching for Sammy and his many narrow escapes from death.<br />
<br />
<b>Burn the Dead</b> is a gripping tale- both emotionally and figuratively. From the get-go, the reader becomes enthralled in the plot. I read the story and I did not want to put down the book! The language is colloquial and interspersed with a few expletives. This is understandable, especially in the precarious circumstances that the main character finds himself. I love the fact that , against all odds, author Jenkins displays the tenacity of the main character. This characteristic is truly an admirable one. I appreciate the fact that author Jenkins chose to express his story from the main character's perspective. This is a good tactic because as a reader you become fully immersed in the storyline. I recommend this book to all fans of suspense novels.<br />

Yeah! Today I am celebrating the fact that I have written 100 reviews!<br />
<br />
I am thankful to God for giving me the strength, ability and patience to achieve this milestone. I am also thankful for family and friends who have encouraged me on my book review journey.<br />
<br />
I distinctly remember when I first started to write these book reviews back in April 2013. I had approached my writing as just a hobby at the time. I only started to take it seriously a year later.<br />
Kudos also go to the staff at Readers Favorite for putting up with me!<br />
<br />
So, I have achieved this feat before Xmas. Ironically, the next book I reviewed is entitled <b>Done By Christmas</b>.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=tsK9ecvo8ds&offerid=361251.281&subid=0&type=4" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Kobo Inc." border="0" src="http://ad.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/show?id=tsK9ecvo8ds&bids=361251.281&subid=0&type=4&gridnum=10" /></a>This post is therefore celebrating my achievement as well as publicizing my review of this Christian book by Randall Jarmon. I gave it 4 stars. It is filled with action and is really a good read. Read my analysis below:-<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 107%;"><b>Done

Taggert and his personal vendetta against Abigail West. Victor had one of his operations intercepted
by Abigail’s business known as Abigail West Security Services. As a result, Victor was convicted and
sentenced to prison. Since then, Victor vowed to kill Abigail because she was
bad for his “bad” business and his incarceration. Author Randall Jarmon also re</span><span style="line-height: 107%;">vealed </span><span style="line-height: 107%;">the

<span style="font-family: "calibri" , sans-serif; line-height: 107%;"><br /></span>
<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Done

between Victor Taggert and the police which the author deftly uses to reveal the intellectual precision of Victor's mind. The entire plot was developed exceptionally well with unexpected twists that truly take you by surprise. The use of contrast and the element of surprise is very effective and gripping, which really draws the reader in and makes them engrossed in the story. I recommend this book to all readers who love a suspense novel.</span></span><br />

Contemporary preachers would summarize this action as sowing kind seeds. Who knows what might happen as a result of your benevolence today?<br />

This feature was inherent in the story entitled <b>A</b> <b>Call To Love</b> written by author Rebecca Sundberg. It is based<br />
on the main character Maddy who is<br />
a devout Christian. Regularly, she<br />

towards others. <br />
<br />
<br />
I completed this review on 17 June 2014.<br />
This is what Ms. Sundberg had to say about my review:-<br />
"a very well written review that was positive and clearly interpreted the message I was trying to portray. I liked that the reviewer was able to relate it to their own experience as well."<br />
<br />
Here is my synopsis of A Call To Love:-<br />
<br />
<b>A Call to Love</b> is a refreshing story surrounding Maddy, a devout Christian who was in love with God and sought to do his bidding. Maddy’s overall influence in the town of Hendersly was phenomenal. Maddy’s Christian outreach extended to anyone God lay upon her heart. This concept of sowing the proverbial seed even surprised Maddy herself! For example, Maddy had befriended Lori and felt that she should purchase a dryer for her to assist with the laundry. After doing so, Lori’s son Derek unexpectedly and deliberately broke one of Maddy’s windows with a rock. Maddy saw the act being carried out that night and she did not fret or tell his mother. She simply baked a casserole and took it for the family. Derek eventually apologized and offered to mow her lawn for the entire summer. Years later, as a young man, Derek visited Maddy and thanked her for her intervention in his life. He had opted to become a pastor. He wanted to give of himself like Maddy. Maddy’s daughter Dani also felt this outpouring of love over the years and vowed to continue Maddy’s work in her own life. According to Ms. Sundberg, Dani recognized that this way of life was not easy for her mum.<br />
<br />
<b>A Call to Love</b> is a novel that makes you question your own life. You might ask yourself, what am I doing to give back to society like Maddy? How am I showing God’s love to my neighbors or friends? I also appreciate the plot of the novel. Ms. Sundberg traces Dani’s childhood years through to young adulthood. All of the interpersonal relationships that Maddy formed bore fruit later in the plot. This is evident especially at Dani’s bridal shower and at Maddy’s funeral. A Call to Love is very moving and thought provoking. It reminds me of my father’s role as a school teacher. To date, many years after his death, I am experiencing an outpouring of goodwill extended to my son as a result of my father’s kindness to one of his co-workers. I can therefore thoroughly relate to this theme of sowing seeds of kindness. The language of the book is informal and it is easy to follow the storyline. Ms. Sundberg has done a great job in developing the characters of her book. I love the way in which she shaped Maddy’s selfless persona. Maddy seems so real! She is a person who has really overcome her personal trials and we as readers can persevere in life even when things seem to be difficult. I strongly recommend this inspiring book to all readers.<br />

To most persons, science seems to be an abstract subject. However, most of us are consumers therefore the technology behind scientific discoveries assist us in our daily lives. For example, when we sit down to eat our cornflakes for breakfast, we don't think about the special conditions that were responsible for growing the actual corn plants to maturity.<br />
<br />
In addition, when we drop that bowl in the sink and rush off to work, we don't have time to consider that it takes approximately 60 to 70 days for smaller varieties of the corn plant to become fully ripe.<br />
<br />

My next book review was based on a scientific facility. Author Urno Barthel's novel entitled <b>Death by Probability</b> is an intriguing murder mystery. Mr. Barthel is an actual physicist who is now a writer. I wrote this review on 15 June 2014.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Death by Probability</b> is a suspense novel surrounding the death of Willard, a scientist at the HAL facility. The main character, Evan Olsson, is thrown into the deep end when he tries to solve this murder mystery. Evan was being trained by Willard for about a month and, before his death, Willard sent Evan an encrypted video message informing him of the work he wanted Evan to continue for him. Willard had apparently stumbled upon some evidence leading to an impending dangerous coup or disaster. He wanted Evan to dig further so as to expose the perpetrators. The intrigue is set in motion when Evan seeks to trim his list of likely suspects. Almost all of the science lab employees were eligible. The process of elimination was very tedious. Evan deliberated as to the motives and interpersonal work relationships of each co-worker to solve this murder. Author Urno Barthel also reveals the development of Evan’s non-existent love life to one of passionate togetherness with Lissa, the sister of one of Evan’s work mates.</span></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Death by Probability</b> is a well developed book which is very intriguing. The pace is a bit slow at first, but as the action surrounding Willard’s death steps up, the plot becomes more enthralling. I love the way in which Mr. Barthel switches between Evan’s work life and love life throughout the novel. This makes Evan seem more realistic and it also gives you the impression that human interaction is vital to our social existence as humans. In contrast to Evan’s consistent dialogues with his personal computer, Al, it is gratifying to see Evan have an emotionally satisfying personal relationship at last. This aspect of man vs machine has far-reaching implications. According to Mr. Barthel’s story, the development of computer technology is both good and bad. It can easily replace the need for human interaction as well as create intentional disasters akin to the 9/11 World Trade Center tragedy. Death by Probability is an interesting read concerning technological advancement. I recommend it to all readers looking for a suspenseful high.</span> </div>

Can anyone be a mother? The answer to that is a resounding "yes". However, the critical question that should be asked is "what <b>kind</b> of mother will you be?"<br />
<br />
Will you stay up at night to assist your daughter with her studies for a major exam or will you go partying at the latest nightclub trying to recapture your youth?<br />
<br />
Will you listen to your step children when they confide in you that they are scared of your new boyfriend or will you put them on ignore and do what you feel like because you are in charge?<br />
<br />
In the book entitled <b>Miss Carrie</b>, a little boy called Ben met Miss Carrie who later adopted him as her own son. This book written by author Judson Hout emphasizes the fact that all good parents are not necessarily biological parents. Possessing a caring heart is an important criteria for this important role.<br />
<br />
I wrote this review on 12 June 2014. Keep reading to see my analysis.<arial 14px="" font-size:="" quot=""><br /></arial></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Miss Carrie</b> is a delightful tale which chronicles the early childhood years of Ben Williams. Ben gets involved in the usual childhood pranks with his buddies. After succumbing to a dare with his friends, he encounters Carrie Stephens who is known to be an “old witch.” Nothing could be further from the truth. Miss Carrie, as she is affectionately called, befriends Ben and she becomes an important fixture in his life. He realizes that he can confide in Miss Carrie and he visits her every day. She was a pillar of strength for Ben, especially when his father died after going to war and when his grandmother passed away. Author Judson Hout also reveals the growing friendship between Ben and his schoolmate Amy and their eventual marriage. Ben goes on to become a responsible citizen who supports his family and never forgets his roots.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span itemprop="description" style="padding: 0px;"><b>Miss Carrie</b> is a very intriguing story. I loved the aura of suspense involved when Ben is so consumed with fear in the beginning when he met Carrie. This is very realistic because at times we might hear a rumour about someone, but in essence we should walk a mile in his or her shoes before we cast judgment. Mr. Hout has done a great job developing his characters, especially the adorable Lounicey and her husband Mashal. They treat Ben as their own child. I loved the caring way in which Miss Carrie pulled out all the stops to adopt Ben after he was forced into the children’s home. Mr. Hout smartly paved the way for the twist at the end. Miss Carrie is a refreshing tale detailing Ben’s passage to adulthood. </span>I recommend it to all readers.</div>

Author Arabah Joy engages her readers with a practical insight into the most effective ways to change our thought patterns, self-defeating behavior and negative self-talk. In her book, Ms. Joy explains that God has provided us with the tools that we need to combat the daily struggles of life. We need to believe and trust in God and know that His grace is sufficient for us to be victorious. She goes on to say that as humans, we need to get up and do </span><span style="background-color: white;">what we have to do instead of just planning. We must take action!

At times, I have felt overwhelmed with errands and household chores. In my opinion, this piece of advice is like a gold nugget. I appreciate the chapter about abolishing fear. The inclusion about the study by Dr. Caroline Leaf is very relevant and insightful. It ties in beautifully with the biblical proverb, “as a man thinks within himself, so is he”. According to Ms. Joy, having a healthy thought pattern is imperative in order to succeed in life. This will surely assist in overcoming negative behavior like procrastination and anxiety. I recommend this inspiring book to all readers so that they can become pros in life.</span></span></div>

The realm of space has been getting lots of attention these days. NASA recently released the first colour images of the planet Pluto which was first discovered in 1930. <br />
<br />
This intriguing subject matter has also been a popular stomping ground for authors as well. <b>Connor Stone: Space Detective </b>was written by author P.J. Lawton. It practically describes a galactic world specifically Grega where a space detective, Connor solves various crimes.<br />
<br />
It really makes you wonder if it would be possible for us to travel to these outer planets someday.<br />

I completed this review on 23 May 2014. Here is my review:-<br />

<a href="https://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=tsK9ecvo8ds&offerid=336121.51&subid=0&type=4"><img alt="Smiggle - get new stationery, bags, games and more fun goodies in one colourful place!" border="0" height="72" src="https://ad.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/show?id=tsK9ecvo8ds&bids=336121.51&subid=0&type=4&gridnum=2" width="400" /></a>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>Connor Stone: Space Detective</b> is a fast paced story involving a dedicated detective who lives in outer space on a planet called Grega. Connor Stone was an Enforcement Officer in this galactic realm. Unfortunately, as a result of an injury during an assignment, Connor became a private detective. The story begins with Connor being interviewed by an avid news reporter who is very much interested in hearing Connor’s life stories as a private eye. Connor encountered a myriad of interesting clients and bad guys. Author P.J. Lawton also gives you a glimpse into Connor’s private life. He reveals that Connor still maintained an amicable relationship with his ex-wife, Sandy, and his daughter, Sissy. Connor was even forced to visit New Axon where Sandy and Sissy lived to rescue Sissy from the grip of a ruthless cartel leader. Connor fights criminals with the assistance of his old friend Stan, who is still employed as an Enforcement Officer. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;">Mr. Lawton has done an excellent job portraying the characters in this book. I loved the interplay between Connor and the crooked criminals. At times I don’t even remember that most of the bodyguards and bouncers are droids! The intriguing, action packed story drew me in completely. The storyline is very realistic and exciting. </span>It reminds me of a cowboy and Indian story where the cowboy reigns supreme at the end. In this scenario, the cowboy is Connor. The language is informal and anyone can follow the plot quite easily. I love the little twist at the end. This tactic is a very smart one to utilize. Connor Stone: Space Detective is, in fact, a refreshing intergalactic book. I recommend it to all readers who need to escape to a different frontier of fun.</div>

Most parents would tell you that they are really not comfortable with the idea that their teenagers are dating. Yes, as adults we passed through that phase but when it comes to our own children, its a different ballgame.<br />
<br />
Parents might start to instill new rules and regulations for their teens. For example, if you were in favour of them coming home at 9.30 pm, you might be tempted to tell them "get home by 8!" once you realize that they are dating.<br />
<br />
Author Jeremy Davis wrote the book <b>Life Lessons For My</b> <b>Brothas: Dating</b> for teenagers and parents alike. It is targeted for males, however girls can also benefit from the advice Mr. Davis offers.<br />
<br />
I wrote this review on 10 April 2014. Read my review below:-<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span itemprop="description" style="padding: 0px;"><b>Life Lessons for my Brothas: Dating</b> by Jeremy Davis is a practical book advising the average male teenager about dating. Mr. Davis gives a synopsis of his own school experiences. He relates how he was obsessed with a girl by the name of Sarah as a youngster. He used to have numerous daydreams about her. He reveals how his fantasies about a first kiss with Sarah were squashed abruptly. This occurred out of the blue when another female acquaintance, Samantha, just pulled him to her and placed a kiss on his lips. His romantic hopes surrounding his ideal first kiss were dashed. Mr. Davis also gives some interesting tips about ways to boost your self esteem. He even stressed the importance of being a confident person. This would assist most teenagers in terms of approaching females.</span></div>

<span itemprop="description" style="padding: 0px;"><b>Life Lessons for my Brothas: Dating</b> is a simple book designed to instill basic tips about dating. I appreciate the fact that Mr. Davis has included a journal, worksheets, and personal questions for his readers. This encourages interaction and introspection. The tone of the book is down to earth and personal. Mr. Davis is speaking as though he is communicating with his own son or relatives. The language is simple and colloquial and the reader can easily understand what is being said. I like the section on confidence. This value is very important in everyday life. Mr. Davis explains that being confident helps in situations where you might be rejected as a suitor. You would not feel like a loser in life if a girl does not care for your attention. I recommend this short, educational book that gives insight into the dating game.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Maya & Filippo Look for Whales</b> is a delightful storybook
for children. It is colorfully illustrated
and it educates persons about Alaska.
This travel log involves Maya and Filippo who are brother and
sister. They take a cruise on a cruise
ship called the “Fun Princess”. This
ship docks at Ketchikan in Alaska. They
are both wondering what kind of fish they would love to see on their tour. Both of them really wanted to see a
whale! They got more than they bargained
for. They were fortunate to see totem
poles in a village called Saxman Native Village. Filippo was very excited when he saw the
totem poles but Maya was not enthused.
She only wanted to see a whale.
Whilst on the tour, the tour guide explained the story of the Salmon
Chief. It involved a fisherman who used
his imagination to pretend that he was catching a lot of fish. The reality was
the opposite for him at that time.
Eventually, the fisherman was successful and caught a lot of fish.
According to Miss Rutkowska, Maya then used her imagination to pretend that she
was seeing a whale. Eventually, Maya and
Filippo went on an excursion to watch whales in Snow Passage.</div>

<b>Maya & Filippo Look for Whales</b> is a positive children’s
book. It relates the travel experiences
of the two main characters thereby enticing readers to consider travelling to
Alaska in the future. I love the
colorful illustrations. It is evident
that Miss Rutkowska loves to travel as well because everyone in the story is
smiling. This attention to detail
actually makes the book rather appealing to all readers. The theme is a simple one based on the joys
of travel as a family affair. There is a
moral embedded in the story. In essence,
the pages reveal that if you maintain a positive outlook in life, your dreams
may actually come true. According to
Miss Rutkowska, Maya had a so called “aha” moment and copied the actions of the
fisherman that she heard about in the totem pole fable. This speaks volumes
from a psychological standpoint because in these current harsh economic times,
it is imperative to stay focused and maintain a positive outlook in life. I
appreciate the fact that this simple children’s book contains this important
value system for all readers to adopt in their daily lives. I highly recommend this book to all readers
especially those with small children who enjoy reading or listening to stories.</div>

What does a bridge mean to you? It could signify a physical means of communication between two areas of land to cross over from one side to the other. It could also represent verbal connectivity between two persons or a group of people.</div>

Author Terrence J. Goodchild in his book <b>The Bridge of Sorrel</b> introduced Brad and Claudette who were trying to make a love connection. This development led them down a winding path of new discoveries and suspense.</div>

<span itemprop="description" style="background-color: white; padding: 0px;"><b>The Bridge of Sorrel</b> is an enjoyable story based on Brad, a bachelor who is searching for love. He meets an attractive lady, Claudette, whose grandfather is Brad’s boss. Ultimately, Brad is introduced to Claudette’s family and is invited to participate in a work assignment in his capacity as an architect. The task is to build a bridge across a river in a remote area called Sorrel. The aim is to reintegrate this district with the rest of society. When they reach Sorrel, Claudette and Brad encounter opposition from the locals to their well-intentioned desire to uplift the living standards. They later learnt that Sorrel was in fact a film set that was constructed for the filming of a movie called Sleepy Hollow. Further investigations by Brad and Claudette resulted in their capture by the Josef, the man in charge of the “village”. According to author Terrence Goodchild, these local people were in fact aliens who can travel through time.</span></div>

<span itemprop="description" style="background-color: white; padding: 0px;"><span style="font-family: "tahoma" , "arial"; font-size: 14px;"><b>The Bridge of Sorrel </b>is a very interesting book that grabs a reader’s attention. I enjoyed the unexpected twist at the end. This book contains elements of romance and suspense and I believe that Mr. Goodchild has done a good job in combining the two to create a delightful reading experience. He also explored the importance of bonding in terms of relationships through his characters. Brad experienced love with two different women and he even felt a kinship with his buddies. The portrayal of Brad’s personal love interests exemplifies a realistic view of actual relationships that are formed. At some point in our lives, we might travel by public transport and like Brad it is possible to fall in love with someone you meet on the bus or train. I recommend The Bridge of Sorrel to anyone who loves to read a fast paced drama filled with suspense.</span></span></div>
