This fictional tale tells the story featuring otherworldly guardians battling malevolent creatures that manipulate the human mind. These guardians are on a quest to save Earth, embarking on an adventure-filled journey that explores the eternal struggle between good and evil, reflecting aspects of human nature. The exciting thing about our book is that it uncovers the existence of mysterious creatures living among us, who profit from human dreams while we sleep and secretly manipulate our desires, fears, and actions. These creatures weave a complex web of intrigue, leaving our readers questioning not only the nature of their dreams but the forces behind their own existence. We hope this reflection inspires our readers to replace those forces with more positive ones. 

The main message of our book to our readers is to cherish the gift of life, nurture it, and understand that your talents can only be utilized through the goodwill of your hearts. Love one another and sincerely wish each other well – we are all one big family! Protect this beautiful planet; it is our only home!

Welcome to the new weekly post about how my reviewing is going.  

#BookReview: Mountains Made of Glass (Fairy Tale Retelling, #1) by Scarlett St. Clair

"Could you love me?" he whispered. The question stole my breath and burned my lungs in the silence that followed. 

I wanted to answer, to whisper yes into the space between us, but I was afraid.

All Gesela's life, her home village of Elk has been cursed. And it isn't a single curse—it is one after another, each to be broken by a villager, each with devastating consequences. When Elk's well goes dry, it is Gesela's turn to save her town by killing the toad that lives at the bottom. Except… the toad is not a toad at all. He is an Elven prince under a curse of his own, and upon his death, his brothers come for Gesela, seeking retribution.

As punishment, the princes banish Gesela to live with their seventh brother, the one they call the beast. Gesela expects to be the prisoner of a hideous monster, but the beast turns out to be exquisitely beautiful, and rather than lock her in a cell, he offers Gesela a deal. If she can guess his true name in seven days, she can go free.

Gesela agrees, but there is a hidden catch—she must speak his name with love in order to free him, too.

But can either of them learn to love in time?

#BookishDiscussions: The role of boys in books: DISCUSS. (Is it okay that they’re idealised heart throbs??)

This weeks topic is boys in books.  It seems everyday someone new is becoming a book boyfriend of shadow daddy.  But what about our real life counterparts.  Is it emotional cheating to have a book boyfriend?  

#BookReview: Spark of the Everflame (Kindred's Curse #1) by Penn Cole

When old secrets catch fire, everything will burn.

In a mortal world colonized by the gods and ruled over by the Descended, their cruel offspring, Diem Bellator yearns to escape the insular life of her poor village.

Her mother’s sudden disappearance—and the discovery of a dangerous secret about her past—offer Diem an unexpected opportunity to enter the dark world of Descended royalty and unlock the web of mysteries her mother left behind.

With the dying King’s handsome, mysterious heir watching her every move, and a ruthless mortal alliance recruiting her to join the growing civil war, Diem will have to navigate the unwritten rules of love, power, and politics in order to save her family—and all of mortalkind.

Spark of the Everflame is the first book in The Kindred's Curse Saga, a four-book fantasy romance series. This slow burn, enemies-to-lovers epic is perfect for lovers of magic, dragons, angst, and banter and will appeal to fans of books like A Court of Thorns and Roses, From Blood and Ash, Gild, and The Serpent & the Wings of Night.
