#BookReview for Howl's Moving Castle (Howl's Moving Castle #1) by Diana Wynne Jones

Deciding she has nothing more to lose she makes her way to the moving castle that hovers on the hills above Market Chipping. 

But the castle belongs to the dreaded Wizard Howl whose appetite, they say, is satisfied only by the souls of young girls…

#BookBlitz for His Little Wife Lie by @sloanstormbooks @XpressoTours #Giveaway ($50 Amazon gift card)

His Little Wife Lie
Sloan Storm
Publication date: April 26th 2019
Genres: Adult, Contemporary, Romance

IT’S NOT A LIE IF WE BELIEVE IT’S TRUE.
That’s what Griff Foster said right after he asked me to be his wife.
Sweet, isn’t he?
Let’s be real: his proposal had nothing to do with romance. Falling in love isn’t in his DNA. With piercing blue eyes and a hard body to match, he goes through women like candy.
But he saved my life.
I promised I’d repay him. I should learn when to keep my mouth shut.
Griff needs a Mrs. Right Now, and he’s convinced I’m the perfect actress.
In case I have any doubts, there are seven badly needed zeroes on a check with my name on it to help make up my mind.
Ugh.
We’re totally fake. Nothing but lies.
Except the way his lips feel on mine.
Except the way his touch sets my body ablaze.
Except the way my soul aches when he looks into my eyes.
He says that without me, he loses everything.
But if I’ve got the upper hand, why does it feel like he’s in control?
There’s only one thing missing from this arrangement.
What happens to my heart when it’s over?

#BookBlitz for The Courage to Aspire by Chuks I. Ndukwe @RABTBookTours

Thoughts on Moments of Love, Kindness, Encouragement, and Aspiration

Memoir, Motivational

Publisher: Ikebiebooks

Published: March 2019

A twelve year boy stands in front of his class, beside a science demonstration table in his sixth grade classroom with electric switch in his hand. Nobody had ever seen electric light in his village before. With windows closed and the door shut, He turns the light on—enthralled by the flood of light that illuminated the classroom, he screams, “I want to become an electrical engineer when I grow up.

His innocent utterance seemed little more than a fantasy because his family could not fund his education beyond primary school. Suddenly everything changed; his teacher helped him gain admission to a tuition-free technical high school where he won a scholarship to a technical college.

In this captivating and inspirational memoir, Chuks I. Ndukwe recounts vividly the moments and acts of love, kindness, and encouragement that put him on the path to success.
