Thank you @rararesources For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The child we lost is literature fiction/family drama. The story is 300 pages long, and while I was reading this book, I felt very emotional reading this book and at times it did make my heart beat faster. It did make me cry in many places through the book. The stories are about Vicky and Marc, who lost their three-year-old boy, Josh, and they have another child called Ruby. Ruby was Josh is twin sisterand then Ruby thinks she’s seen him again. The story is very well written and beautifully written. If I’m being honest, I was hooked on the book immediately, and the story is about grief and loss, so it did pull at my heartstrings quite a bit. It is a gripping read, and you will be hooked from start to finish. I found the characters likable, and I did feel like I connected to the mom quite a bit. The Child We Lost is an entertaining read, and you will be in a mess by the end of reading this book. Exc...

Where the Heart Meets the Sea by Kimbra Drake

Thank you @Kimberly_Engebrigtsen @LoveBooksTours @LBT.Crew For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Where the Heart Meets the Sea is a romance/literary fiction. I received a paperback of Where the Heart Meets the Sea, and the writing is the right size for me because I do often struggle with the font and the size being tiny, and this is perfect and doesn’t make my eyes squint, which is a bonus. I like the front cover; it’s stunning and makes me want to go and visit this place, which is set in Norway. Furthermore, I like when you open the paperback and there’s a map, and it gives you a bit of detail of what the places are called so you can flip back to the map when you're reading in the book, which is excellent. Not only that, but I thoroughly enjoyed the descriptions in the book. They were beautiful, and I could really visualize them in my mind. I found the story easy to get into from chapter 1 to the end. I like in this book the topics it hits on: romance, fri...

Thank you @zooloosBT For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Back for Good is a contemporary genre and is 384 pages long. I love the front cover; it’s bright and colorful, and I like how her hair mixes in as the main feature of the cover. The story is about Sasha, and she doesn’t ask for a lot and feels unappreciated in her marriage, but then something happens to her that makes her life change, and then there is Zinnia, who is a trainee spirit guide that wants to help Sasha sort her life out. For me, this is the kind of story that I love, especially about spiritual areas. I instantly loved the book and was drawn in by the story and the plot. The writing is beautiful. Back for Good is easy to get into and a heartwarming story. You won’t be able to put it down. The story is at a reasonable pace for you to keep up with, which I liked. I really liked the characters and felt a bond with them and felt like I could relate to them. This is an engaging and unique read from...

Smile So Red and Other Tales of Madness by Mia Dalia

Thank you@zooloosBT For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Smile So Red and Other Tales of Madness is a horror/short stories genre. I adore the descriptions that flow through each of these stories; they give so much atmosphere, and you can feel the chill down your spine while reading these stories. There are eight different stories, and they are all fabulous to read and just as terrifying as each other, but I think my favorite was the Blues for the Soul. I was just gripped from start to end with this one, probably more than the other books. Smiles So Red and Other Tales of Madness would be perfect for Halloween. I like the setting in each of the stories; they are dark and scary. All the stories are easy to get into and all as good as each other, and I think this is a book that you can keep reading and coming back to. I like horror, and this is a great horror. All all the main characters in each story were memorable and fabulous to get to know. I was drawn to th...

By Emma Fitzgerald -

Thank you @hyggebooktours For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. I’m Listening When No One Else Is is a non-fiction read and is 195 pages long. I'm listening when no one else is , like a self-help mental health book to me. Furthermore, I found this book to be straightforward to get into, and I realize what Iris Justice was saying, and it really resonated with me, and I like her writing style too . It was an intriguing and eye-opening read. I found it fascinating how she was describing everyday challenges that we may all go through, which range from loneliness and social media to health, and I felt this helped me read what Iris had put. An excellent title that really works with the book. Fascinating and entertaining read—five stars. Blurb: Loneliness has the audacity to strike us at the most sincere and unexpected moments, leaving us feeling weak and lifeless from within. It's not merely the lack of companionship or connection that evokes such feelings;...

The Boy From Elsewhere by Kestral Gaian

By Emma Fitzgerald -

Thank you @litpr For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Boy From Elsewhere is young adult fiction, and this is book 1 in the series. The story is about a boy who washes up on a beach and meets David, who offers to help him and to help him figure out what’s happened to him. I was drawn to this book instantly. I truly enjoyed getting to know both characters and the characters who were running alongside them, and it was lovely to see them all develop through the book. Furthermore, I can’t believe you're left on a cliffhanger, so I am desperate to read book 2. The story is written exceedingly well and will grip you from start to finish. It took me a day to read this book because it was a fabulous read and was very entertaining. Can’t wait for book 2. 5 stars. This is a magical tead that keeps you on your toes. Blurb One Town. Two Worlds. No Way Home. A boy washes up on the beach of a quiet seaside town, soaked, shaken, and wearing nothing but pyjamas. He i...

Thank you @zooloosBt For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Catch the Flame is book one in the series. Catch the Flame is a romance genre and is 288 pages long. The story is about two characters, Gus, who is an ex-Navy SEAL and is a carpenter. Who has his issues? Then there is Faith, who has a dog called Taco and whose car breaks down, and she ends up in Fire Lake, and she also has her own past to deal with. This is a heartwarming story that will tug on your heartstrings. I like both characters a lot, and they both have depth, and it’s nice to see both of them develop throughout the book. The story is engaging from the start, and there are a few twists and turns in there that I didn’t see coming and enjoyed. The book can be spicy in parts, which is always good. I really like Fire Lake, and it seems like a magical and beautiful place to be, and I would love to go there. I also like the other characters that are not always in the books so much, but they seem like r...
