Literary journey of an office career escapee
I’m already about one-third into the third book of the series, so I’ll keep this review short and to the point. All three books have already begun to mix in my head in one completely engrossing narrative, so I’ll do my best not to give out any spoilers. “Down A Darker Path”, book two of... Continue Reading →
I devoured this book in a few sittings. Like other books by this author, “The Mysterious Disappearance of Mr. Darcy” has everything that Jane Austen fans crave to find in “Pride and Prejudice” variations. More of the romance between Lizzy and Mr. Darcy, the English high society, constrained by the strict rules of propriety but... Continue Reading →
Every rebellion needs a symbol. Humans need a leader with unmatched power who will make them believe that victory is possible. Supernatural creatures need something more. A Silver Elf, an enchantress, a dragonmistress of the golden dragons clan fits the role well. “Immortal Defiance”, book one of the Dulcea's Rebellion series by Laura Maybrooke, begins...

Between fighting the stubborn pharyngitis and trying to keep up with our family’s challenging schedule, the talk on Briggs on Books was hanging by a thread until almost the last moment. Moreover, at that last moment, high tech issues threatened to cancel everything. But all is well that ends well. We discussed the topics I... Continue Reading →

Roberts Bergs is a cop in 1990s Latvia, struggling to make ends meet. He’s cold, tired, hungry, and just trying to survive each day. Despite his struggles, he has a dream... Continue Reading →
It was a chore to read this book. Yet, after I finished it, I felt as if I had lived among the troubled Compsons rather than read about them. The stream-of-consciousness narrative isn’t for every reader to digest and to enjoy. And when it’s a stream of a person with a mental disability and the... Continue Reading →
They say that it’s normal for the young to be impulsive. They say: "When does one have more freedom to explore what life has to offer than in one’s youth?" What nobody seems to pay much attention to is that adventures can be dangerous. What many consider the proof of the adult’s fossilised mind, at... Continue Reading →
This charming story is for everyone who wants a blissful escape from their everyday worries. I kept turning the pages, smiling and giggling at Jenni’s antics, and couldn’t get enough of quaint Sixpenny Bisset. Even though this pretty town in Dorset is fictional, it felt every bit real to me. “The Newcomer” by Caroline Rebisz... Continue Reading →
Today is International Women's Day, and I saw it fitting to release my new book on March 8 to celebrate this wonderful day, which, to me, has always been a symbol of spring, beauty, and new beginnings. Thank you to everyone who pre-ordered the book. I hope you will enjoy Margo's journey while she explores... Continue Reading →
