Book Review: Talisman of El

Book: Talisman of El

Author: AL Stone

AL Stone’s “TALISMAN OF EL” is a fascinating story that revolves around the life of a teenager who is troubled because of the nightmares that he has. Four years ago when his father died, a day before he had a similar dream.

Charlie is a new student at Oakwood Secondary School. He is an orphan and an outsider so he will get everyone’s attention at school. But fortunately, Charlie made a friend named Alex at school. From his mother’s last letter, Charlie finds out that he is different and has a purpose on earth. Charlie even has a map of Arcadia. What will Charlie do with this map? Will he find another world on earth with the name of Arcadia?

Apart from the protagonist Charlie, other characters that play an important role in the story are Alex, Derkein, Richmond, etc.

The world building is so amazing. I was totally pulled into this story while reading it and it made me forget the real world for a while. After reading the first book in the series, I am curious to get my hands on the second one.

The Extraordinary Ordinary by author Natalie Rodriguez

Book: The Extraordinary Ordinary

Author: Natalie Rodriguez

Available On: Amazon

Language: English

Rating: 5/5

The Extraordinary Ordinary written by the author Natalie Rodriguez is based on the award winning film. The book starts with Erica who has anxiety and she constantly reminds herself to just Breathe. She is a young photography student and her father gifted her ‘A Polaroid Camera’ as a going away gift.

I really loved reading this book as it focuses on mental health and trauma. It’s not at all easy to gather ourselves after a traumatic experience. Erica made a great start in life by moving to another city. She met Bianca and Alex, two uplifting souls who had their own tragedies from the past.

The book also inspires readers to focus on self growth. The characters are written very nicely. All the three characters Erica, Bianca and Alex became my favorite the moment I read about them. I wish I would have gotten my hands on this book earlier. This book is definitely recommended. Go for it without having any second thoughts.
