A Christmas Carol by Joshua Ingle

By Emma Fitzgerald -
Thank you @lovebooktours #Ad #LBTCrew #Bookstagram #FreeBookReview For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. A Christmas Carol has a beautiful front cover. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this story, and I was engrossed from the start to the end. It’s such a Christmassy book and gets you in the mood for Christmas. I loved that it was a modern and up-to-date story. I liked all the characters and warmed to them all straightaway. This is a fantastic book and perfect for this time of year. It was so lovely to read a different spin on it. A Christmas Carol is written exceedingly well and is a charming and heartwarming read. . 5 stars. Blurb Utterly selfish and consumed by ambition, Ben Scrooge is the ruthless head of a global financial empire. But when his dead business partner, Marley Jacobs, escapes from Hell with a target on her back, he flees with her into immersive, real-as-life memories of his past. Hot on their heels is the Ghost of Christmas Past, a relentless phantom set on recapturing Marley. As they race through Ben’s sometimes-faulty memories, and confront the events and choices that hardened his heart, regret builds within him over the life he led, and the affection he always felt for Marley but never honoured. Reluctantly, Ben begins to see the roads not taken: tender moments he spurned, friendships he abandoned, and a love that might have redirected him away from his own darkness. But Marley may soon be lost forever, and the ghost’s true motive is bleaker than punishing her: it is a bid to rewrite history itself. Realising that every action echoes into the future, and determined to save each other, Ben and Marley must risk everything on a final, desperate gamble – a chance to change not only their own fate but the fate of the world they helped create. In this propulsive, modern retelling of Dickens’s classic, redemption comes at the price of courage, compassion, and the willingness to face the past head on. Author bio I’m a pathologically curious sci-fi and fantasy geek. Most of my writing portrays ethical crises packaged in nail-biting thriller and mystery story lines, taking place in unique story worlds.

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.

Thank you @Dreamheadz . @KellyALacey and @lovebookstours for letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Fish King and the Two Wise Ghosts is a children's book that is 58 pages long. This is a cute children's book about the Fish King who feels lonely and wants to find a family he eventually finds Lisa but he has to introduce them to the Ghosts. The illustrations are good and children will like them and they work well with the writing. There is good rhyming throughout the book which children will like.
