Murmurations by Sarah Thompson

By Emma Fitzgerald -
Thank you @KellyALacey @lovebookstours #Ad #LBTCrew #BookTwitter #hreeReview #FreeBookReview for letting me be part of tbis tour and reviewing this book. Murmurations is a poetry genre that is about ties between nature, humanity, and divine. I love reading these poems, and I especially read them outside to connect with them probably, and I really felt the words in the book were meaningful and I connecting with the poems instantly. You can tell that Sarah Thompson loves nature, it comes out in her writing. While I was reading these poems, it did make me reflect on things in my life. The poems are written beautifully and were very moving. The poems are set in five segments : Forest, Body, Mind , Love, and Universe and I loved the picture at the beginning of the book which is a very pretty and peaceful when you look at it. Murmurations is a very quick read that you can keep coming back to when you need to. This is a calming read, which I need at present too in a busy life at present. If you like poems, this short story collection for you. 5 stars. Blurb Take a walk through the woods, feel the pleasures and perils of body and mind, fall in love, and experience the universe. Part raw emotion and part dry wit, Murmurations runs the gamut of human emotion. This debut collection focuses on the ties between nature, humanity, and the divine. Open and intuitive in style, many of these poems were composed while wandering the woods. Author bio Sarah Thompson is an Irish-Norwegian writer, currently residing in a small Dutch village in Drenthe, with her partner and three cats. She has always loved reading and books and has a master’s degree in comparative literature. In possession of a vivid imagination, writing - whether it be poetry, memoir, crime fiction or fantasy - provides an outlet and a way to share her passion and use her powers for good, instead of using them to give herself nightmares. When she’s not banging her head against the keyboard or getting distracted by ever-important details such as the different calls of owls, or what the definition of a city is, she can often be found in the woods, wherever there’s bathing water, or curled up on the sofa with a pile of books, a pile of cats and a nice, dark beer

Thank you @strangelymagic and @neemtreepress for letting me review this book. War of the wind is 220 pages snd is you g adukt fiction. I really enjoyed reading this book and felt like ot held my attention to the end. I really like the characters my favourite where Max, Beanie and Erin. I love the plot with the evil Doctor Asheood and the wind turbines. It was lovely to see Max develop and start to accept his disabiliny and for Max to have the strengh to tell his dad how he felt about him not communicate with him. My heart did go out to dad ehen i found out why. It did make me sad in places but its great read and gripped me. I slso liked hid uncle and twister. I feel young adults will love this story its diffent and its grest suspence.

But after a few weeks, Florizel starts to notice something odd happening ...

Thank you @NikkiTgriffiths , @Seeshespeak and @Melivillehouse for letting me part of this tour and reviewing this book. I love the front cover its very eye catching witch would make me pick up to read the blurb. I like the title to. I found hanging out very instresting read its very true how people lost on technology and how we lost the connections in the real world since covid. I found it difficult and awakard going to social situations not knowing what to say or woundering if people want me there all because we been locjed away. I like how Sheila highlights her importance for us to hang out togther and how socialsing has changed through the years. Hanging out is written well and easy to get into and the topic is well researched. 4 stars. The digital age has consumed us. Every time we unlock our phones, we disengage from our social interactions. As a digital society we have fractured our real-life relationships, splintered our attention and created social voids. We overcompensate f...
