B-Files by Steven LaFlamme
March 10, 2022 17:23 - 9 minutes - 18.1 MBBefore we start to talk about this very well drawn comic book, that leaves you asking too many questions, we, impressed with the quality of the work, HAD to ask more about the author, and we are glad we did.

March 10, 2022 17:06 - 4 minutes - 6.34 MB” He felt the turmoil of a world gone mad, of ordinary men killing one another simply because they wore different colored clothing. “ The author, Gary Turner, in the introduction, clearly states that the book, although fiction, is based on real people, which many, their names are kept real, and the life aspects of many of them are also put in the book. Historical notes, family heritage and lineage are put in the book, as warned, along with elements of the World War. We can see the love an...
Five Happy Choices Journal by Kristina Rienzi
March 10, 2022 16:33 - 3 minutes - 5.66 MBFive happy choices is about the practice of happiness and how we can integrate it in our daily lives. But, before we start to talk about happiness, we have to ask ourselves: What IS happiness? Well, let´s start with what isn’t. Happiness isn’t an event, a happening, a thing that falls from the sky or has dollar bills attached to it. No. Happiness is a choice, a choice that you can make, an easy choice that you can and should make. A choice that Kristina Rienzi helps you with on her book tha...
Drifters by V. S. Holmes
March 10, 2022 14:07 - 4 minutes - 6.34 MBAfter the ending of the previous book, ‘Travelers‘, that hit our hearts, left us confused and eager to know more, V. S. Holmes comes back to the story without fan-fair, and what we mean by this is that the author throws memories of the deaths on the first book, the conflicts inside Nel and her duties as a teacher to the reader with full force. The author can make and does an excellent job when it comes to portraying emotions and making the reader connect with the characters and their feelin...
My Pursuit of Beauty by Vince Spinnato
March 10, 2022 13:31 - 6 minutes - 8.45 MBHumor is an always present aspect of this book, from the first words of the author to the last, growing as the book goes. The titles of the chapters themselves are funny, intriguing and show a lot about the sense of humor of the author. You will have so much fun reading this, but the first story of the book is… crashing. A little sensitive to Americans, Sep. 11, is told from a weird and spooky perspective. But this story will not be the only one relating planes and weird things, in the US or...
The Rython Kingdom by Mandy Eve-Barnett
March 10, 2022 13:07 - 6 minutes - 8.33 MBFirst impressions are crucial, and Mandy Eve-Barnett makes a damn good first impression on readers on this book! The author has an intricate, but not too complex, style of narrative and she uses words that force the imagery of the period and setting of her story. In less that three sentences, you are aware and set on the scenario that she is trying to convey. Excellent! “.… Guillem had been admired for his prowess in battle, but now he was even more revered as a troubadour. His tales of bat...
Keeper of the Jewel by Richard H. Stephens
March 10, 2022 12:35 - 3 minutes - 5.12 MBFrom what we understand on the first pages and the titles of the chapters, – and all the mentions of them – , there will be a LOT of dragons, hahhahahahah. This is an Epic Fantasy book, and a massive adventure, so everyone that loves dragons, elves, fire, – and Skyrim -, hop on! There is even a chapter called “DragonBorn”. A very cool detail that we noticed, is that the chapters are titled on a Victorian/Gothic font, which adds to the atmosphere! Awesome! Given that this is the fourth book...
Angle of Death by William Gensburger
February 14, 2022 08:30 - 5 minutes - 8.16 MBWilliam Gensburger introduces the second chapter of the Mackenzie Michaels Mystery Series by reinforcing in our minds what’s the series is about and what to expect from this second book, ‘Angle of Death,’ enhancing our curiosity enough for us to turn the pages faster, and read the first scene that is very well written. William doesn’t just re-introduce us to the main characters, but to a possible victim, or witness of a crime, or even a person about to discover the corpse… No hints given unt...
Civility at work by Lewena Bayer
February 10, 2022 23:34 - 6 minutes - 8.42 MBMany of us spend our lives working hard to learn skills that will be valuable, and demanded on the workplace. Yet, we neglect essential soft skills, seen as “nice to have“, such as Civility. It should be a no-brainer, the fact that employers should treat their employees well. Respect the fact that they are working, and that they are people with needs as well. But, this is not the case in our day-to-day lives, now is it? Dr. Lewena Bayer’s surprising, and much needed book explains the high n...
Travelers by V. S. Holmes
February 10, 2022 22:51 - 5 minutes - 4.95 MB~~The narrative is impressive and steady and the story engaging at once. Given the cover, and the fact that the book is Sci-fi, we get anxious to see what marvelous science fiction is going go happen, because we are introduced to an archaeology site digging, which, has, per our experience in Sci-fi, good basis to discover mysteries of ancient societies, or…. aliens. But the writer, V. S Holmes, knows her craft, her story and characters and where she wants the readers at all times. Lovely. T...
A Demon's Trade by Kathrin Hutson
February 10, 2022 22:26 - 4 minutes - 6.25 MBKahtrin Hutson starts the book strong, with a powerful MC and a statement that creates intrigue in the reader, like “Who is Kali Sullivan, why does she have such effect on men?” , “Is she human, a witch, or another type of magical creature?” and showing us an important part of the MC’s personality: she is as focused as she is fierce! And this is only the beginning. That’s why we are total fans of Kathrin Huston! Her writing is feisty in all the right ways, and we love the characters she cre...
School Shooter by Thorsten Nesch
February 01, 2022 17:33 - 5 minutes - 6.8 MBThorsten Nesch, is one of the coolest writers we’ve had on our blog, “Grolar”, was one of the most original books last year, and he’s back with: “School Shooter“. Yes, you can bet that this will be a great book. Why do we say this?

February 01, 2022 17:07 - 5 minutes - 6.46 MB“Fright nights, Big City” takes off with energy and a quick recap of the last book’s, “Fear and Longing in Los Angeles“, main events. Although this is a paranormal comedy romance, Mark Leslie grips us into our seats with a suspense-inducing first scene that promises trouble and lots of awkward moments for our main character and Alex. A perfect start, to say the least. New characters, new problems, new powers, old enemies will be back and memories of love will mix the air with this furry adv...

"Remember, No Matter What; CHIN UP, TITS OUT" by Miranda Oh
December 29, 2021 11:37 - 4 minutes - 4.97 MBWhat would was the first thought that crossed your mind when you read the part: “Chin Up, Tits Out” ? …. That’s exactly why we loved this book from the first moment. The image of determination and self-confidence in women. The introduction to the book is funny, not on the usual way, but it’s totally a surprise and it intrigues readers, mostly because we want to know why did Miranda Oh, chose such events involving… a monkey, hahahahahahhaha. After all the monkey business is done, the book c...
“Paradise Road” by Marilyn Kriete
December 27, 2021 16:58 - 7 minutes - 8.19 MBWe are presented with a determined author, that tells us how she might rather die trying than to quit or not have it, that had to endure her mother as her sworn enemy for no apparent reason and had the courage to carve a path to herself through little secrets, friendships, escapades that latter escalated into runaways. It’s admirable to see that although Marilyn Kriete, at the time, didn’t have the means of escaping the parental control, or dictatorship regime, she never lost the drive to ge...

Why does the giant want a piece of Micah, if he is jus a skinny kid that has never seen jail in his life? We...

December 14, 2021 10:22 - 5 minutes - 5 MBRemember that quote that goes something like: “After you read a book, you will not see the world the say way again” ? Yeah… this is one of those books, a total mind-opener! Most of us have seen, witnessed, the damage that a drunk or alcoholic person can do, both to itself, be it in a moment, over the years, physically and mentally and to others, and all of us have in way or the other heard the gruesome stories, from close friends, relatives of the damage that a drunk can make to its closes...

"Minor Assassin" by Jackiem Joyner
November 27, 2021 18:05 - 5 minutes - 5.84 MBThis book starts off with heavy scenes. I mean… HEAVY.

After the cruel scenes, the trauma and the “helping escort” out to safety, there was only one path for Jon as an 8 year old: Vengeance. – And 20$ bills – Jackiem Joyner doesn’t hold back in the descriptions of the...
"White Lightning" by Melissa YI
November 27, 2021 16:52 - 4 minutes - 5.05 MBStarting off a book with a quote by a legendary gangster will surely make your book interesting, specially when the quote is funny, and then, to top THAT, and to ensure that the expectations of the readers are high enough, follow it by a quote by Oscar Wilde on sex and power. Yes! Well put mysteries and slowly rising tension, make this book interesting from the start and the book starts off great with Melissa Yi setting the tone to many possibilities, and none of them good, as two boys put ...

November 20, 2021 18:19 - 3 minutes - 3.89 MBHave you ever looked at your dog and thought: “Wow, so zen” ? Well, I’m sure that if you take a moment to replay all your memories about your favorite furry and barky pet, – and overlook all the chewing, barking and leaping around with what seems like an endless supply of energy– you will see that in fact, dogs ARE zen. Here’s why I’m saying this, and you as a dog owner will surely relate: Most times, when your dog was anxious, it was either because you, the owner, were anxious, or, they wer...
"To Fight Fire with Sun" by D. A. Andrews
November 19, 2021 15:33 - 4 minutes - 4.79 MBThis book has one of the MOST BEAUTIFUL COVERS we’ve EVER SEEN! OMG!!! This cover is breath-taking. Like, you don’t even have to read the book to start feeling it, just LOOK AT THE COVER!

Maaaaaaaaaan…. this is something else. Like, truly something else. Just the cov...
"Winston - The Well Dressed Wombat" By Jenna Greene
November 17, 2021 13:52 - 4 minutes - 5.05 MBFirst impressions: Emily Zieroth made a fantastic job when it comes to the illustration for this children’s book.

You’d totally right if you did, be...
“Something In The Water – Drowning” by Dean Comyn
November 13, 2021 09:26 - 5 minutes - 7.76 MBOk! The mysterious nature of this book is impressive and the hold of the narrative on the first chapter even more so. By the second, the questions grow and keep growing as we are just given a whiff of what may possibly be happening, which makes this book gripping from the start! We have some kind of very advanced governmental agency, the MCU2, with some serious tech and action power, trying to keep somebody safe, Dr. Veda, but right from the start we are bombarded with disappearances and ev...
The Best Laid Plans by Russell Govan
November 04, 2021 20:33 - 6 minutes - 8.3 MBA book that starts off in full swing, tension, contradiction, the sense of accomplishing a mission and doing what is right despite the instructed from our main character.
