🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“The Forbidden Fruit” written by the author Tina Scott is a true story of Sex, Drugs, and the Afterlife. In this book, the author has shared about her life since childhood. After college, Tina got married. Her first husband was the love of her life. After ten years of togetherness, it ended up in divorce leaving Tina as a single mother of three children. 

When Tina met Steve, he also had his three children. They got married and raised six kids. Steve was with Tina for twenty-two years. He lost his life because of the stomach ulcers that deteriorated his condition every passing day. Tina is a spiritual person with her belief in God. Even though Steve didn’t believe in her spiritual concepts earlier, he started accepting God later in life. 

After Steve, Tina was alone and went on a solo trip to Nepal. Read this story to get a sneak peak into the author’s life and learn from her experiences. The writing style of the author is raw and she has shared the honest account of her life with the readers. 

Those who love reading memoirs should definitely get their hands on this book. It took me on a rollercoaster ride full of various emotions.

Fostering Love

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: Fostering Love: A Glimpse into Foster Care 📚

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“Fostering Love: A Glimpse into Foster Care” written by the author Kathleen Paydo is an insightful read. The author has explained the different types of foster care. It’s important for us to understand the foster child’s point of view. A child who comes to foster care not only loses his surroundings but his parents and siblings as well. Such children go through post-traumatic stress disorder.

The author has explained about her foster care career with her husband Ron. Like others, I used to think that foster care means the children need to be kept forever. This book broadened my mind about foster care. The author has also fostered sibling groups. The behavior of traumatized and non-traumatized children are different and they bring their own challenges. One could work directly with the foster children’s family as it proves to be more rewarding.

This is a well written book that has enhanced my understanding of the foster care system and the needs of the children in foster care. Those who want to become foster parents or are curious to know how the foster system works can read this book. It is an informative read. I appreciate all the insights shared by the author in this book. The author has shared various real stories in the book to explain us well about the foster system. I am glad to read this book. The practical strategies shared by the author would be definitely helpful.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“The Daedalus Mission” written by the author Dietmar Arthur Wehr is the first book in “A Battle For Mars” book series. The story features two companies: SpaceX and Bifrost-S. In the year 2029, SpaceX astronauts are about to enter orbit around Mars. Starship Alpha is losing methane very slowly so the ship would have enough fuel to enter a stable orbit around Mars but not enough to land safely. 

Therefore, SpaceX asks Bifrost-S to have a piloted Daedalus ready to fly to Mars to rendezvous with Alpha, take the astronauts on board, then bring them back home. The problem is D-1 isn’t ready for a manned mission in early August. However, SpaceX is stubborn about it. Konrad volunteered to pilot Daedalus One. Read the story to know what plan the team would finalize. What would happen when they get to know that the Chinese are planning to land on Mars too. 

The story is interesting and it kept me on the edge of my seat. The writing style of the author is amazing. The characters are well developed. The twists and turns in the story kept the tension high throughout the book. I enjoyed every bit of this book.

Sci-fi and techno thriller fans would be delighted to read this book. I appreciate the vivid imagination of the author in the world building.

Lawless Tradition

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: Lawless Tradition 📚
𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿: P.D. Blackwell ✍️
.
.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
Lawless Tradition written by the author P.D. Blackwell is a unique read. Through this book, the author is opening the reader’s eyes to the forgotten biblical facts. Through this book, the author wants to highlight how the alterations to the Christian faith have produced the multi-denominational Christendom of the 21st century. When this Christendom was compared to the 1st century original, it was realized that the original meaning was a bit lost. 

In this book, the author has described with examples how certain meanings are not conveyed properly to the believers. He has explained the true meaning of God and Jesus. The author has mentioned how one shouldn’t consider themselves equal as God. There is a difference between being united with God or thinking of someone as equal to God.

This book is an easy read with many scriptural references. The author has shared valuable information in this book and I appreciate his passion for God. Non-fiction fans couldn’t afford to miss reading this book. I strongly recommend this book especially for Christians.

Joe 6 Pack Straightens Out

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: Joe 6 Pack Straightens Out 📚
𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿: Winsor Smith ✍️
.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“Joe 6 Pack Straightens Out” written by the author Winsor Smith is a must read book. Winsor, who has been a habitual drinker, took a challenge to abstain from alcohol for 30 days. The habits he developed during his sober month stayed with him and brought long term changes in his life.

During the challenge, the author had written notes of his high and low moments. This book is written from those notes. By breaking bad habits, we could get more free time which we could use to do something productive. Winsor started taking Spanish lessons and reading a book.

I am a teetotaller and I enjoyed every bit of the author’s journey. This book is not just for a habitual drinker but for everyone who wants to break bad habits and develop good ones. The author’s journey inspired me to take a month’s challenge for the habits I want to build and break. This is a well written book. I am glad to read it.
