Yellow Wife by Sadeqa Johnson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Yellow Wife📚 Hello Book Friends! I am still trying to process what happened in YELLOW WIFE by Sadeqa Johnson. This is one of the most moving books I have read in a while. The story rang true and was beautiful and shocking at the same time. I cannot stop thinking of what these women went through and the sacrifices they made for their children. This novel is a must-read. May we never forget that all men and women are born free and no one has the right to take their freedom away.

Review: The Last Love Note by Emma Grey

The Last Love Note  by  Emma Grey My rating:  3 of 5 stars In THE LAST LOVE NOTE by Emma Grey, I embarked on a journey filled with conflicting emotions. Despite my initial eagerness to delve deeper into the narrative, the unexpected weightiness of the prose caught me off guard. The narrative's frequent jumps in timeline, especially in audiobook format, proved disorienting and challenging to follow. However, Leeanna Walsman's narration was outstanding, rescuing the experience with her excellent delivery. The novel grapples with poignant themes, exploring the profound ideas of seizing life's moments and nurturing hope amid pain. Yet, occasional forced dialogue and slapstick humor felt incongruent with the somber tone. Nevertheless, the commendable growth of the characters and the author's skill in infusing joy and hope into a challenging narrative make it a worthwhile read. While my personal experience may differ, many readers have found this book highly enjoyable, so I e...

The Memory Clinic: Stories of Hope and Healing for Alzheimer's Patients and Their Families by Tiffany Chow My rating: 5 of 5 stars Wow!! What an appropriate book for this time in my life!!

Review: A Storm of Infinite Beauty by Julianne MacLean

A Storm of Infinite Beauty  by  Julianne MacLean My rating:  3 of 5 stars A STORM OF INFINITE BEAUTY by Julianne MacLean left me with mixed feelings. While the premise of Scarlett Fontaine's mysterious life and the connection to Gwen Hollingsworth promised intrigue, the execution fell short. The dual timelines, spanning from Valdez, Alaska in 1963 to Nova Scotia in 2017, lacked a seamless transition, leaving me more captivated by the historical narrative. The portrayal of Gwen and Peter's relationship felt awkward, particularly in discussing Gwen's past with Eric. The narrative, resembling women's fiction, could have thrived as a focused exploration of the Valdez earthquake, bypassing the disjointed present-day plot. Despite its shortcomings, Maclean's descriptive prose crafts vivid settings, from a lush vineyard to a rustic Alaska lodge, making it a worthwhile read for those seeking a scenic journey with a touch of family mystery. ✏ Favourite quote: "I mean, w...
