Review: 364 Days A Year by Sarah Riad

364 Days A Year by Sarah Riad

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love the #bookstagram community. I met wonderful authors and book reviewers which inspire me daily. Recently I befriended author Sarah Riad and she asked me if I wanted to read her upcoming book 364 Days a Year in exchange for an honest review. I say “Yes” without hesitation. I am always humbled and happy when an author asks me to read his or her book. Thanks Sarah!

I just finished her book and I am still shaken by the multitude of emotions I felt while reading it. This is a fresh and well-written story with many layers of human behaviours. I love the storyline and how it flows beautifully. It starts with the main character waking up in the body of recently deceased Effie Garcia. Since 1909, our heroine has lived her 17th year over and over. Each year, on the 29th of March, she starts a new cycle in a new body. She does not remember who she is, but she knows that all the hosts recently pass away and that she has 364 days before she dies and starts this cycle again. This time is different though and there is hope that whatever is causing this entrapment can be stopped. She will encounter allies and foes throughout the book, but in the end, she is alone to make the final decision: live or die again and again.

Get your copy of 364 Days a Year by Sarah Riad as soon as it is available on October 27, 2018. A must-read!

Review: Fight For Her by Liz Plum

Fight For Her  by  Liz Plum My rating:  3 of 5 stars 📚 Hello Book Friends! FIGHT FOR HER by Liz Plum is a coming-of-age YA Romance. It is an easy-going story about a love triangle between a popular girl, a star athlete, and a bad boy. The story was interesting and had some potential. It was just a bit too juvenile for my taste and sometimes too dramatic. It is nonetheless an enjoyable love story if you put your teenager's thinking cap on. The author delivered a good story with a lovely ending. #bookstadog #poodles #poodlestagram #poodlesofinstagram #furbabies #dogsofinstagram #bookstagram #dogsandbooks #bookishlife #bookishlove #bookstagrammer #books #booklover #bookish #bookaholic #reading #readersofinstagram #instaread #ilovebooks #bookishcanadians #canadianbookstagram #bookreviewer #bookcommunity #bibliophile #fightforher #lizplum #bookreview View all my reviews

Review: Asking for a Friend by Kerry Clare

Asking for a Friend  by  Kerry Clare My rating:  3 of 5 stars Kerry Clare's ASKING FOR A FRIEND is a beautifully crafted exploration of the enduring bond between two women, Jess and Clara, who meet in university and embark on a journey through life's tumultuous terrain. This character-driven narrative delves deep into their complex friendship, which spans two decades and weaves through love, heartbreak, marriage, anxiety, and the multifaceted challenges of motherhood. Clare's storytelling skills shine as she navigates the ebb and flow of their relationship, capturing the essence of female camaraderie. This book celebrates the strength of female friendships, emphasizing the significance of history, familiarity, and loyalty in sustaining these connections over time. The novel also fearlessly tackles contemporary issues affecting women, from the right to choose to the emotional toll of motherhood. #bookstadog #poodles #poodlestagram #poodlesofinstagram #furbabies #dogsofinstag

Review: Waves by Ingrid Chabbert

Waves  by  Ingrid Chabbert My rating:  5 of 5 stars WAVES, written by Ingrid Chabbert and beautifully illustrated by Carole Maurel, is a deeply personal and poetic graphic novel that explores the profound journey of a young couple trying to conceive. Drawing from the author's own experience, the story delves into the emotional depths of heartbreak, resilience, and the power of hope. The use of metaphors in Waves is exceptional, creating a mesmerizing reading experience. Chabbert skillfully weaves together the themes of writing, coping, and healing, forming a profound connection between the protagonist's pain and her quest for renewal. The dreamlike illustrations by Carole Maurel add an ethereal touch to the narrative, particularly in the visual depiction of the boat and waves of paper. While the subject matter is emotionally intense, WAVES is an extraordinary work that invites readers to embrace vulnerability and contemplate the complexities of life. I highly recommend this gra
