He used to do this on Thursdays when Eddy’s mom used to be at work. Earlier his family used to wonder why Eddy doesn’t talk much to his father but now they know the reason.

Father’s role is to provide the best to his kids. But when that person himself becomes your abuser then how could you trust others.

Wide Sky People penned by Bruce Mitchell is the first installment in the Thornton Series, and the author’s debut novel. It’s an exciting tale of Mick and Cate Thornton and their two young boys who emigrated from Ireland to Australia in 1841. After spending nearly five months on sea, they enter Sydney Harbour.

The family finds lodgings at ‘Dawson’s Boarding House’, and after a disheartening search Mick finds work as a stableman; but their world is upturned when Cate is arrested for theft. What follows is an adventure in the dark back streets of The Rocks, with a thrilling climax.

The story unfolds west of the mountains where the family works the land and encounters both hardship and reward. Mick and Cate’s two sons Michael and John play an important role as adventurers and graziers.

I loved this story. Bruce’s writing style is captivating and I couldn’t put the book down. The plot is unique and the pace is fast, with vivid narration from the author. The loss of a loved one is not easy to handle and I became a little emotional while reading. The book’s cover looks wonderful and the title couldn’t be better.

Book: Miracles and Mayhem: A Testimony of God’s Ever-Present Love and Protection

Language: English

Rating: 5/5

“Miracles and Mayhem: A Testimony of God’s Ever-Present Love and Protection” penned by the author Belinda Smith Cicarella is a guide to God. In this book, the author has expressed how faith in God can do miracles in our life. Belinda who hadn’t done anything to deserve God’s kindness saw miracles and God’s mercy in her own life. This made her faith in God stronger.

There are various stories that show her faith in God. In the small town in the Yucatán Peninsula, Belinda realized how impoverished people think they will not be happy until they have more, and enriched people are joyfully certain they have everything. She was grateful to the warm hospitality she received from people. Inside the jungle, a dark creature was after Belinda. But she was saved by a Brahma-type bull with wide horns. She felt this bull as a heavenly protector and felt peace in her heart.

Another incident in Acapulco, Mexico when God kept the shark from pursuing her. I could relate well to the author’s stories as I was once about to drown and it was God’s mercy on me that I am alive today. I believe in God. I like readers to give a read to this book as there are various testimonials of God’s love and protection. This book also has stories about the loss of loved ones like Josie.

This is a nicely written book. I enjoyed reading every bit of it. Stories that Belinda has mentioned in this book are worth reading. Have faith in God and let him illuminate your path. I appreciate the author’s work in this book. I loved the words of encouragement at the end of stories. Go ahead with this book without thinking twice.
