Name’s Keeper

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: Name’s Keeper 📚

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“Name’s Keeper: A Small Collection of Short Stories” written by the author Melissa R. Mendelson is an interesting read.

My favorite story from the collection is “The Body in the Trunk”. The story is set at Red Lit Diner. The main character of the story is a sheriff. On a red stool beside the counter, there was a stranger. The woman was checking the contents of her trunk and people saw her.

When the sheriff did inquire about what was in the trunk and why it was there, the woman warned the sheriff to not touch her. Ignoring the warning, when the sheriff touched the woman, he realized the truth. Read the story to know more about it yourself.

The stories are gripping and spooky. They are short and you could enjoy one story at a time. The plot of these stories is well built by the author. I enjoy reading Melissa’s stories. Her writing style is great and that makes her books unputdownable.

“Diving For El Corazón” is a unique story that readers would enjoy for sure. There was a belief among the villagers that an ancient ring named El Corazón was lying at the bottom of the sea. Some people had the belief that the ring has magical powers but there are many who thought it to be evil.

When Paco was a young kid, he had a dream to become a cliff diver. Paco was a poor kid. By finding the ring, he wanted to rescue his mother from poverty. On his tenth birthday, when he finally found the ring, Paco only thought about himself. Soon, he felt as if he had become a prisoner of the sea. This made him throw the ring away. Read the story to know if Paco will find the ring again.

This is a super interesting story. It made me think about what I would do with such a ring if I found it. The storyline is captivating and you won’t feel like putting down this book without finishing it. Charlie is great at writing unique stories. He should write more often. Loved his work.

“Zen and the Art of Navigating College: An Inquiry into the True Nature of Education and the Power of Self-Discovery” written by the author Peter Klein is a helpful college guide.

Through this book, the author provides the readers with a broader perspective so the students can navigate their way through the complexities of college years in a better way. The author wants to tell the readers that college can help us find our purpose but the initiative needs to be taken by us. Peter is opening the readers’ eyes now to how college selection can have consequences for our life. He has shared his own journey as a college freshman.

I agree with the author about the power of networking and how important it is to start networking in college. Time for soon-to-be college goers to do their homework of selecting the right college with the guidance shared by the author in this book.

Through this book, the author fills the gap between students’ expectations from college and reality. If you will soon be a college student or are a parent of such a student then get your hands on this insightful book. I am glad to read this book. It’s thought provoking.
