Literary journey of an office career escapee
"Tangle of Choices", book two of the Neglected Merge trilogy, is special for me. And that is why it means so much that readers feel that I've put a part of my heart into it. I feel overwhelmed to receive a 5-star review from someone whom I respect as a person and as an outstanding... Continue Reading →
By the age of seventeen, I’d already gotten too intimately acquainted with the transient nature of life. I hadn’t even pulled through the teenage years before I lost my best friend, my first admirer, and my father. None of these losses was what one could call a natural course of life. Don’t get me wrong,... Continue Reading →
Reading this book was like meeting dear friends after separation. I couldn’t stop smiling as a picture of Lizzy and Mr Darcy’s marital bliss unfolded on the pages. “Death Takes a Holiday at Pemberley”, just like other books penned by Kelly Miller, will please Jane Austen’s fans, as well as those who love the regency...

Hope, sympathy, some tears, and, of course, happiness.“To Catch a Feather” is a story of two people, who had their share of grief and struggle in life, but who dare... Continue Reading →
What a ride it has been reading Shane Scott’s book “God of Nothing”! I feel like I straddled a tsunami and rode the whole way to the shore and even further at lightning speed. I won’t try to retell the plot. First of all, I think readers should make that discovery themselves. But in this... Continue Reading →
"Witch’s Mirror” is the second book in the “Vampires of the Emberbury” series by Eva Alton. I enjoyed the first book “Stray Witch” so much that I went on reading the second one right away. And after reading the second, I dived right into the third. “Witch’s Mirror” has a darker edge to it. Alba,... Continue Reading →
As I’m sitting and staring at the blinking cursor, I can’t but dwell on the controversies of a human mind. Why is it so that when you like something, dozens of words, appropriate to express your positive feelings spring obligingly in your head, but when you’ve irrevocably fallen in love with it, your mind goes...
