Nincompoop is the first novel that I have read penned by the author John C. Picardi. Protagonist of the story is a 24 years old gay man Leonardo. Story started in October 1994 when Leonardo landed a job at an East Village bar named Bar Plato. The owner of the bar was actor Jack Fresh. Leonardo has recently moved to New York and his friend Julia helped him to get the job at a bar.

Before landing this job, Leonardo was fired from a cater-waiter job and he couldn’t even go back to substitute teaching because of his bad experience at it. Leonardo was tense about whether Jack’s wife Mara will hire him after the interview. Mara saw that Leonardo is weak and boring. She told him that she will fix him and his job is confirmed. Rico, Leonard’s boss on the other hand warned him that Mara is not as nice as he is thinking. However, his friend Jack is a great person. Leonardo is also an aspiring writer and Jack has shown interest in reading his work. Grab a copy of this book and find out for yourself what happens next.

I liked the way the author introduced the setting, milieu (environment) and the principal characters first. Story is quite interesting. There are many characters in the story. Even though I rarely read novels with so many characters, the way the author has written each character is amazing. I loved the plot. The title of the story is suitable. I like to strongly recommend this novel to other readers.

One day, Tom was sitting in his favorite Chinese restaurant Li Wah when he noticed a woman staring at him.

The sword i.e. a family heirloom that was supposed to be passed to Paul is also missing. Cindy requested Tom to take her case.

This story hooked me from the first page and I couldn’t put it down until I finished it. Cover photo is nice and the way the author has linked Cindy’s dream about dragons with Tom’s nickname is also interesting. Steve’s writing is professional and his story plot is superb.

Hearts Amongst Stars written by the author K Soriano is a poetry book. The author has written all the poems in the left alignment. Below lines are my favorite among the collection. The narrator has expressed deep feelings of how someone means so much to us. Even when that special person is not physically around us, we feel so much for him/her.

Of all the people in the world,
there’s only one
who can give us butterflies.
Make our hearts feel full.
Feel our souls connect as one.
Allow us to feel comfortable
with who we are
and love us anyway.
Once you find that person,
consider yourself lucky.
Truly special.
And never let them go.

A person who has been in love could understand the meaning of these lines very well.

Language used in the book is simple. If you are a beginner in reading poetry, you will be able to understand what the author is trying to convey using these poems. Cover photo is simple yet relevant as it depicts the night sky full of stars. It’s so thoughtful. Poetry lovers should definitely read this book.

Silence In The Stone

Book: From Nothing Into The Woman of God: Spiritual Life

Author: Christy Sanderson

Available On: Amazon

Language: English

Rating: 4/5

• 

“From Nothing Into The Woman of God: Spiritual Life” penned by the author Christy Sanderson is the story of Christy’s life. Author has shared about her trust in God and how He has given her many things in life. Christy is from a small town known as Canton, Mississippi. God is the C.E.O. of her life.

I totally agree with the author when she said that some people only see doubts and unbelief in their life instead of seeing prosperity in their life. If we have bad experiences in life, they are to make us stronger and prepare us for what lies ahead. I agree with this as I have faced similar situations in life. The author has lost many things in her life but through her faith in God, she has gained them back. Christy was saved by Jesus when she was having thoughts to do suicide.

By helping others she is paying back to Jesus. I really appreciate this and if God/someone has helped us in life then we should also help someone to make their life better. This book has inspired me to keep on finding my purpose in life. Also, our struggles/failures are necessary as they make us stronger so we shouldn’t get upset because of them.

Through her story, the author wants to help others in finding their purpose in life. This story is well written and I am glad to get my hands on this amazing book. Content is mature and sensitive so I like to recommend this book to adults who are comfortable reading about topics like suicide. Writing style of the author is great. I liked the title of the book. Go ahead with it.
