Vanity: Murder in the name of sin by author Rhiannon Garrard

Book: Vanity: Murder in the name of sin

Author: Rhiannon Garrard

Available On: Amazon

Language: English

Rating: 4.5/5

Vanity: Murder in the name of sin by the author Rhiannon Garrard is an interesting thriller. Story is set in the little,
picturesque town Mitokoa. A murder happened in the broad daylight in the cafe and the strange thing is that according to the witness murderer hasn’t used any weapon. When detective Katelyn Rush arrived in the town, she felt everything so strange. The only hotel in the town itself gave her strange vibes when she got to know that the hotel owner himself is the receptionist and there is no other staff.

As she went out to explore the town better, she started noticing that no living thing (human, birds, animals) is there around the town. Only in front of cafe, she saw 3-4 people and they all were self obsessed and praising themselves. Kate could connect this to the killer vanity. It felt like as if these people outside cafe are in vain after a murder there. It felt like some kind of pandemic. Grab a copy of this book and find out yourself will Kate be able to find out the murderer?

I enjoyed this novel a lot. Author has very well set the plot. Story is unique and interesting. I would love to enjoy this story as a movie also. Language is simple and easy to understand. Cover photo of the book is nicely designed and captured my attention the moment I saw it. Storyline has horror, thrill, detective investigation, mystery, etc. Overall, I like to strongly recommend this novel to my fellow readers.

This was her last summer before she goes to college when she met Christin this year during her summer break with her grandmother. It was really amazing witness the love and romance between the two of them, which really gave me many mesmerizing moment here and there.

It will be interesting for all of you to read what happens next  year when they both happen to meet again and their life changes again! Will Briann and Christin be back together!

Interview with author Erika Alexandria Sanders

Q1. Hello Ma’am, can you please introduce yourself? Readers would love to know more about you.

I am originally from the Coastal Empire low country of Savannah, Georgia. I am a poet, an author, and a proud mother of two. My journey as a writer began when I was only eleven years old, due to my passion for poetry and entertaining others with amazing stories. I love to influence others with uplifting insight and accurate information. 

Q2. What were the key challenges you faced while writing ‘Philosophy of the Power Of Love’ book?

The main challenge I faced while developing the book ‘Philosophy of the Power of Love,’ was combining so much material into one quick and easy read for my audience.

Q3. What books or authors have most influenced your own writing?

J.K Rowling is so amazing and has influenced my writings tremendously, as well as, one of my favorite poets; Maya Angelou. Maya is so phenomenal she was invited to recite one of her best poems at one of the presidential inaugurations. 

Q4. What’s your favourite spot to visit in your own country? And what makes it so special to you?

In America, my favorite place to visit is Detroit, Michigan. I love the hospitality and the huge lakes are so cozy and relaxing to sit around and enjoy nature.

Q5. Is there lots to do before you dive in and start writing a book?

I do have a process that I have become accustomed to when starting a new manuscript. For starters I begin my brainstorming for the rough drafts.  

Q6. How long did it take you to write the ‘GAME ON’ book?

The book ‘Game On’ took me a while to finish because I had to keep up with the basketball game scores for each player as I developed the entire children’s story.

Q7. On what all platforms readers can find your books to buy?

You can go find my books on Amazon, Google, Instagram, as well as on Twitter.

Q8. Tell us about the process of coming up with the cover and the title of your books?

Most of my book covers are pictures that I have taken while traveling, which makes the process of manually making a book cover much easier. Each title, however, is unique to the book subject itself; depending on the content inside the book, I will then consider the best title for that book. Coming up with titles and book covers are the easiest parts of finalizing a book before publishing it.

Q9. When writing a book how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

I keep my material fresh by thinking of the unthinkable! I must be original with my approach so that my readers stay engaged. I focus on my audience which keeps me excited and full of fresh data.

Q10. Are there any secrets from the books (that aren’t in the blurb), you can share with your readers?

All the secrets unfold inside the books while my readers read. None of my books are hidden secrets.

Congo Sole is the story of Emmanuel Ntibonera. It is the story of survival in the middle of unbelievable hardships. It is a story of faith on God. As a child, Emmanuel has lived a simple happy life. Congolese people live like a family. Music brought Vincent Ntibonera and Martha, Imani’s parents close to each other and they got married in 1986. When Imani’s dad was once going for work with his business partners, their vehicle was stopped and armed robbery happened. His dad had a near death experience but God saved his life.

In 1996, after various gunshots in the city, Imani and his family had to leave Bukavu. They spent a year in his Grandpa’s village Kaziba. They returned to Bukavo then. Emmanuel family has been saved by God many times. It’s all due to the faith his parents had in God and same faith they passed to their children as values. They were blessed that America changed their life and provide them peace and a stable shelter there. When Emmanuel returned from America to his home country, find out what he discovered.

Language of the book is simple. Cover page is nice. This book made me aware about the rich history and the struggles that people had to go through in the past. I couldn’t even imagine how hard living a refugee life must be. It’s an emotional read and a powerful story. I would like to see this story as a movie so it would reach to more people. Emmanuel’s story made me realize how small things in our life plays an important role and we shouldn’t take them for granted. We should always keep hope. It’s a great story worth reading.

Interview with author Katie Reed

Q1. Hello Ma’am, can you please introduce yourself? Readers would love to know more about you.

My name is Katie Reed and I am 29 years old. I worked at afterschool programs most of my career. When I graduated college, I became an afterschool program coordinator and ran my own site. I have also worked in a reading intervention program at a local public school for a couple years. When I had my son, I decided to stay at home for a while to be with him but I also decided to pursue my dream job as a children’s book author.

Q2. What were the key challenges you faced while writing ‘Wizard and the Lizard’ book?

I started writing Wizard and the Lizard when my son was 2 months old. I was very sleep deprived, which sometimes created a lack of motivation to write. However, I did get the idea for my Wizard and the Lizard books at 3:00 in the morning while feeding him. I just started writing notes into my phone, and felt inspired and motivated to write these books. Once I had the idea for the series, I was ready to write!

Q3. What books or authors have most influenced your own writing?

My son loves rhyming books. The Pout Pout Fish books are probably his favorite. I definitely got some motivation from The Pout Pout Fish series, as well as Tolkien. I love fantasy so I knew I wanted to write about magical characters.

Q4. What’s your favourite spot to visit in your own country? And what makes it so special to you?

I love the Olympic Peninsula in Washington State. My dad and I went there after my mom passed away when I was a kid. I loved how green it was and having the ocean there too. It is just a magical place.

Q5. Is there lots to do before you drive in and start writing a book?

I have to think of the overall message to get me motivated. Once I have that, I get inspired pretty quickly. Sometimes getting the rhymes right can be tricky as well. But I would not say there is a lot to do before I start writing.

Q6. How long did it take you to write ‘Wizard and the Lizard Wacky Weather’ book?

I wrote the drafts in 3 days for both books… However with editing, and working with an editor, it probably took a month (each) to complete the writing for both books.

Q7. On what all platforms readers can find your books to buy?

My books are available on Amazon in Paperback and Kindle formats.

Q8. Tell us about the process of coming up with the cover and the title of your books?

I wanted there to be some mystery that draws in readers with the cover. My first book: Wizard and the Lizard has a cover with Wizard and Buddy looking into a cauldron with green smoke coming out. My second book: Wizard and the Lizard: Wacky Weather has a picture of Wizard and Buddy looking out a window and pointing at something the audience can’t see. I want the readers to wonder what is in the cauldron and what Wizard and Buddy are pointing at out the window, hopefully enough to read them and find out.

Q9. When writing a book how do you keep things fresh, for both your readers and also yourself?

I like to use humor to draw in children and parents. It is also fun to laugh while writing it! I also hope my characters are silly and memorable for both children and adults.

Q10. Are there any secrets from the books (that aren’t in the blurb), you can share with your readers?

I am excited to announce I have a third book coming out in March! Follow me on Facebook at katiereedauthor and Instagram @wizardandthelizardauthor and check out my website katiereedauthor.com for free coloring sheets and updates on upcoming books!
