Thank you@rararesources for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Quiet Wife is a psychological genre. The story goes from the past and present about Soriah. It goes back to when she was at college and Craig was obsessed with her and then goes to the present day when Soriah is now married, and strange things start to happen to her. I was hooked straight the way, and I loved the twist. I did guess what was going to happen. There was a significant amount of suspense and tense running through the book. I did like Soriah and I did feel sorry for her when her past came back to haunt her and give her a big hug. The story written extremely well and loved the plot. Fantastic read strongly recommended 5 stars. The Quiet Wife I want to be ordinary. To fade into the shadows where no one notices me and live a quiet life. A normal life. But I am not ordinary. Not anymore. I’ve been keeping a secret. From my colleagues, my friends and most importantly, my husband - who k...

Thank you, @rararesources, for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Love and Pollination is romance genre. I read book 2 before I read this book, which is book 1.

Frail Little Embers! By Fija Callaghan

Thank you @neentreepress for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. I liked the illustrations and think they work well throughout the book, and you see the illustrations before each short story. There were some stories I connected better with than others, but all 21 stories were easy and entertaining to read. Each story was different with different themes running through them, like fantasy, love, loss and folklore. The stories were enchanting, and the words were poetic and powerful, which is a lovely combination to have in a book. A great read and I feel plenty of people will enjoy reading all these stories that you don’t have to read in one go. 5 stars. Blurb Myth, folklore, and magic come together in 21 illustrated short stories of hope, transformation, and finding light within the dark. A young woman unearths a masquerade mask that reveals her innermost secrets. A grieving woman uses cocoa beans to open a door between worlds. A graduate student leaves her thesi...
