🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
Alpha Bette written by the author Jennifer Manocherian is a gripping story. The main character of the story is a ninety-five-year-old widow Bette Gartner. The story details the lives of Bette’s family and friends. Bette lost her husband George when he was one hundred years old. George went away on his birthday during COVID times.

Bette has outlived many of her family members. After her husband’s death, her daughter Claire insisted on having a full-time house help but Bette doesn’t like having someone at the house all the time. I could relate myself to Bette for this as I feel my freedom is lost if a househelp is around me all the time. Still, now she has Rosie and Venera to look after her.

The story has the backdrop of New York, one of my favorite cities. The story is fast paced and you won’t be bored anytime while reading this book. The cover photo of the book is nice and the title is suitable. I had a great time reading this book. This novel has characters of different ages. If you enjoy reading stories with many characters then get your hands on this book.

UNBREAKABLE!: Healing Your Heart After A Breakup..

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: UNBREAKABLE!: Healing Your Heart After A Breakup.. 📚

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“UNBREAKABLE!: Healing Your Heart After A Breakup..” by the author Peter Julius is an amazing workbook. Moving on after a breakup is really hard. Just a few months ago, I had a breakup and couldn’t function properly to my full potential for a few months because of the hurt, emptiness, etc.

Through this workbook, the author wants to guide readers to find self-love, resilience and personal growth while going through a heartache. The author has mentioned some tips at the beginning of the workbook and these tips really work. This workbook takes us on a 100 day healing journey. This workbook has various activities like writing about your personal desires, reading the quote of the day, practicing gratitude, etc. My favourite quote of the day is below:

“Kindness and respect define my relationships. I embrace only what uplifts my heart and soul”

The activities that are part of this book are fun too. Readers would be able to self-love more while doing these activities. We are not alone in our healing journey. By the end of this workbook, there are great chances that you will meet a better, happier and more healed version of yourself. Those who want to be healed should follow each day’s activities properly. This is a wonderful workbook and I appreciate the author for creating this workbook full of helpful content.

I strongly recommend this to those who want to begin their healing journey.

Growing Through the Storm

Qotd: Are there desires in your heart that you feel impossible to achieve?

This book is a reminder to us that God is the only way for us to achieve the desires of our heart. Things that seem impossible get possible with the mighty God. The author has been in challenging situations in her life. She had two troubled marriages. Her heart was always looking for the kind of love that was there in her dreams but none of her two husbands could provide that kind of love.

This made Sheila frustrated and wonder why God isn’t listening to her. Through her journey, Sheila wants us to remember that we should not throw away our confident trust in the Lord. The Prayer at the end of the book is amazing. It guides us to pray and worship the Lord no matter the circumstances.

This is a fantastic book that would remind readers to not give up on their dreams. This book would make readers feel confident with high self-esteem. It would enhance your faith in the Lord as he doesn’t forgive us or the dreams he has put in our hearts. Healing is possible with God. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and it’s worth reading. I have read a book by this author for the first time and definitely it won’t be the last. Hope Sheila comes up with more books in the future. Loved her work.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
Neon Nothing written by the author Ryan Mckinney is the debut novel of the author. The story features two main characters. Key doesn’t remember his past and Shio has no future. Key is not his original name. It’s what people call him. He is desperate to find out about his past so he can live a peaceful life.

Key was surrounded by so many wires with a surgeon cut into his arm to do some tests. One day, Key took his sample to get it analyzed. The moment the sample was analyzed, Key was being chased and he ran away. Shio lives on the respectful side of the wall and he has to stay in his lane. He works at Kigen technologies and is not happy with his tech-support job. Read this story to know what he will do that he is now on the other side of the wall.

The story is gripping. The characters are written well by the author. Being in a corporate, I could relate well to Shio not liking his job. I appreciate the vivid imagination of the author in creating the fantasy world in the story. Read this book to know if Shio and Key will uncover the truth. Go ahead with this book without any second thoughts.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“The Reflex Part 2: 2nd Book in The Reflex Series” written by the author Maria Denison is a captivating read. It hooked my attention from the first page itself. Reed, Nic, Cara, Sasha, Jake were all sitting together when they found out that Nic and Cara are gifted with the ability to communicate telepathically. Nic can hear her thoughts and can also project his thoughts to her. It’s no magic but there is science behind it.

Cara tells Jake that she gets fleeting glimpses when she tries to read other people’s thoughts. But Jake is completely closed. Jake told her that this is because he is blocking her. Cara, Nic, Jake explored each other’s minds. Later, they found out Max and Mia communicate telepathically. If the siblings want to talk in front of their parents, they do it telepathically. Max admitted that he takes advantage of his talent. He figures out the next move of the players on the field using his gift.

Cara also sensed Reed’s emotions. She discovered that Reed loves the intimacy they share. Read the story to know how all reveals will affect the relationships.

Before reading this book, one should read Book 1 in the series as it is not a standalone book. The book has lots of science information so readers from a science background could connect more with this book. The plot is fascinating. The book is well paced and I had a great time reading this book.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“The Neighbors” is the latest book by the author M.C. Ryder that I have read. The protagonist of the story is Zoe. She is now a full-time staff member. She has worked hard in her life and throughout her years at nursing school. Her mother never hesitates to find another man for herself and she gives the same guidance to Zoe. Her mother constantly tells her to find a man as that’s the only way to get what you want in life. Zoe listens more to her favorite teacher Ms. Harris.

When the world wakes up, Zoe goes to bed after tiring night shifts. One sunny morning, when Zoe was about to sleep, she heard a loud banging from the neighboring apartment 22. Zoe went to her neighbors and asked them to keep the volume low. Later while jogging, Ms. Harris talked to Zoe about the guy Anthony but Zoe refused. Ms. Harris doesn’t want her to be as lonely as she is. She wants Zoe to settle with someone. However, Zoe is only committed to her job and doesn’t feel like committing to anyone else. How will things go with her neighbor?

This is a riveting tale. The story pulled me in totally. The title of the book itself made me curious to pick this book. The narrative is smooth and sets the flow of the story well. This book could be read in two sittings. The author has written the characters in such a way that they will stay on your mind for a long time. It’s my favorite book by the author.
