🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“The Healing Book” written by the author Dustin Grinnell is a collection of stories about people in pursuit of healing. The stories involve many characters who want peace and want to fulfill a spiritual void. They seek to figure out who they are and what they want.

“The Good Parent” is a story about Eleanor who thinks she has failed as a parent. Her firstborn Kate was supposed to make her family proud of her. Instead, she came out to be a “pathologically rebellious” daughter. Eleanor’s boyfriend Leo is a good father and his boys are doing well in their life.

Cured is a story about a girl named Malia who was suffering from malaria. Peter Spaulding is from the Harvard Department of Immunology and Infectious Diseases. He isn’t a doctor and it would take three years for him to obtain his Ph.D. When he found out that a patient Malia was about to die, he was shocked to see that Dr. Becker wasn’t a believer and he gave up on her. Will Peter hold to the belief that she could be cured?

These stories are gripping. I enjoyed every bit of these stories. The writing style of the author is amazing and the title is wonderful. The author has done fantastic work in this book. I had a great time reading these stories. Short story lovers should definitely read this book.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“JUS TALIONIS: For The Girls” written by the author E.C. Maurer is a unique read. The story features a seventeen-year-old boy who was too naive to understand what he was being asked to do. His Aunt Trisha Forest asked him to drive Old Man Keane’s box truck and park it out front that federal courthouse. He was then supposed to press the button on the dashboard. What Thomas didn’t know was that it was a bomb blast that was planned by his aunt.

While executing the plan, Thomas made a mistake and parked the truck in front of the hospital. With the blast, many newborns and others at the hospital lost their lives. Thomas’ wallet was found by the bomb squad and he was given a death sentence. Later, his Uncle Bobby Lee did a blast that impacted Rollie as it brought the traumatic memories of Vietnam. Read this story to know what Rollie will do to bring justice.

Those who love reading stories of revenge should get their hands on this book. The writing style of the author is nice. The content of the book is sensitive as it could bring back traumatic memories. This story will keep you on the edge of your seat.

A Seamless World

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: A Seamless World 📚
𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿: Timothy ✍️
.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“A Seamless World: We Come in Pieces. We Leave in Peace” written by Timothy is a must read. This book begins with the author’s personal story of experiencing betrayal, heartbreak, of being lost and then found by a wise mentor. The author came into this world and had a challenging time in a few hours of being born. He survived intensive care and came home from the hospital in a couple of weeks.

While growing up, Timothy often asked “Where are you, God?” At the age of thirty six, he still hasn’t found the answer he was looking for. As a result, he became hardened to subjects like God and religion. One day, when Timothy had just the last plea in him, he heard “The Voice”. This was the first time Timothy heard from God. Timothy again heard this Voice in life and he learned that we should be thankful for all things, not just some things. Pain is something we should welcome when it changes our perception as to what is real in our world.

The author’s story would help the readers to have a great belief in spirituality. This book enhances our faith in God. Like Timothy had just the last plea before hearing the Voice, I am holding on to my faith in God but I am on the last edge. This book is a unique read. I strongly recommend it to my fellow readers who are on the spiritual path.

Manifest Success

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“Manifest Success: Eliminate Your Mental Hurdles, Maximize Your Results” written by the authors Pamela Hamilton and W.T. Hamilton is a must read book. This book makes us realize how the mind and the narratives we tell ourselves constitute a version of reality of our own making. The authors say that by removing the limits we set for ourselves, we can turn impossible into possible.

After dismantling mental hurdles, we can work towards achieving our dreams. The author has given his own example of how he was determined to buy a house, manifested it with an action plan and a clear pathway. I have also heard about the law of attraction a lot but sometimes I get demotivated and lose my connection with the law. I agree with the author when he has mentioned how after pursuing one dream, it becomes the catalyst for the emergence of fresh ideas.

“Slow down and let the way find you. You don’t need to have all the answers to start the journey.”

I can’t tell how much soothing the above quote was for me. Sometimes, I stress myself by thinking I have to do and figure out everything and I keep on rushing through life. This book has given me a new direction and amazing guidance that I really needed. I got my hands on this book at the right time. The authors have also included a few affirmations that would be helpful.

This book takes the readers on their transformative journey so they can take control of their life and unveil their divine design. Go ahead with this book without any second thoughts.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
Crisis of Conscience by the author A M Thomas is the third book of the Flight of the Kestrel book series.

Lieutenant-Commander Daniel Hoy is the Kestrel’s Second Officer. While doing the patrol, they were asked to search for a mining survey ship. Searching a mining survey ship isn’t an easy task in an asteroid belt. Shom Ruel informed Hoy about the asteroid’s atmosphere.

Tabitha Enns joined the crew over a year ago to cover a shortage. She then went to the Academy on Earth to finish her training. She has rejoined Kestrel and shared a cabin with Andrew Chambers. Enns is a hard worker and really bright. Hoy is glad to have her back on Kestrel. There are inter-species among the Kestrel’s crew. Zoan – a lizard-like species – is among the crew. In this book, we meet many new characters. It would be interesting to see if Tabitha will be able to prove herself.

This is a gripping story. The author has paid great attention to both the world building and the characters. Tabitha is my favorite character. I am glad to meet her again in this book. The writing style of the author captivates your attention till the end of the book.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:

Final Notice

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: Final Notice 📚
𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿: Van Fleisher ✍️
.
.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
Final Notice penned by the author Van Fleisher is a gripping thriller that hooked my attention from the first page itself. Vijay Patel has come up with a great invention. It’s the sports watch that would predict the death of a person and give them the Final Notice so they can bid proper goodbye to their family, arrange their affairs in order, etc. Vijay hadn’t thought about the uses of watches that could harm others. For example: taking revenge, taking one’s remaining life after knowing about the death date.

During the alpha test of the watch, Earl got the final notice and he took his life instead of living his last days fully. Many others used their final days to kill and take revenge. Is it a mistake to include the death predictability feature in the watch?

Vince Fuller, his wife and dog are interesting characters. The storyline is gripping. This book kept me on the edge of my seat and I couldn’t put this book down until I finished it. The cover photo of the book is nice and the title is suitable. I loved this whole concept of Final Notice and enjoyed reading this thriller.

Those who are fans of thrillers should definitely get their hands on this book. Looking forward to reading more books by the author.
