Book: Stuck (In Time)

Author: Dave Johnson

Language: English

Rating: 5/5

I love reading Science Fantasy that involves time travel. Stuck (In Time) is a mix of Sci-fi and history. The protagonist of the story are three kids: James, Robert and Lucy. During their Easter holiday, they went to their Uncle Archie in Cambridge.

One night James found that he is invincible. He told his brother Robert about it but Robert pushed him away thinking that James must be playing a prank on him. In the morning, James told his siblings that he is not kidding and he is seriously invisible.

Kids thought that they will tell about this only to Uncle Archie. They went to his secret office in search of him but to their surprise they saw a time machine. They cracked key codes and found that Uncle Archie has travelled to the past in 1940s and stuck there now. Will the siblings be able to save their Uncle Archie and their brother?

This is the first book in the Stuck Series. With an intriguing story, I can’t put the book down until I finish it. There are so many mysteries to be solved and this would be a perfect pick by children and YA for an enjoyable read. I recommend this book to Sci-fi lovers.

STUCK (IN TIME)

Book: The Threat Below

Author: J.S. Latshaw

Format: Paperback

Rating: 4.5/5

The Threat Below is a YA fantasy novel by the author J.S. Latshaw. The protagonist of the story is Icelyn Brathius, daughter of the head of the Mountain Top. Her relationship with her childhood bestie Adorane Hailgard was much more than just friendship. One day, they both went beyond the wall but whatever they witnessed there, made them to run back to the mountaintop.

Things started to turn upside down when the people of Mountaintop found the water contaminated. What they will do now to survive? The way storyline is built up is highly impressive. The twists and turns in the story made it more interesting. It was a long read so I finished it in multiple sittings but it is definitely worth my time.

Highly recommended for apocalyptic dystopian fans. The title of the book is apt and is well related to the story. Gonna pick the next book “A Gallery Of Mothers”.

The Threat Below (Brathius Legacy Series Book 1)

Traveller Inceptio is a mind blowing time travel novel that revolves around the concept of accidental discovery of a time machine i.e. Transporter. Upon its discovery, travellers were given the needed training to go 1000 years back in time to Saxon England. The way travellers discovered that they need more than technology to survive the trials of early 11th-century life was gripping.

Traveller Inceptio is different as compared to other normal time travel reads. The twists and turns will hook you to the story more. It is not only just about time travelling but it has history added to it.

The plot and the story moving back and forth made it interesting. The character development is strong. Phil and Yeti played a great role especially about their involvement with the time machine. The last few pages are really interesting. Pace of the novel was fast enough to hook the readers.. Overall it was an interesting read that one should pick up surely.

Book: Reflections Of A Mind

Author: Gurmeet Singh

Genre: Poetry

Format: Kindle

Rating: 4/5

Reflections Of A Mind by the author Gurmeet Singh is a poetry book. These poems are based on mixed feelings that we go through many times in our life. I find most of the poems much relatable. 

Each poem has a date written below it that indicates the date when it was actually written. The poems are based on love, failure, success, faith, dreams, life, hardwork, jealousy, etc.

“The Secret Passage” and “Promise Not To Fall” are my favorites among the collection.

It is a short read and I enjoyed reading it with an evening cup of tea while sitting on my front porch. The cover of the book looks amazing. Would like to recommend this to poetry lovers for a light hearted read.

I would recommend this to all poetry lovers.
