Princess: Stepping out of the Shadows-






Princess: Stepping out of the Shadows
Jean Sasson

Joy and Sorrow in a Kingdom on the Threshold of Revolutionary Change!


Knowing this is a true story made it more exciting to me. Stories like this need to be told and heard every day.  I really enjoyed the way the writer was telling the story and at times I became emotional and felt like I was a character in the story.

 It makes you sit and wonder what you can do to help other women in this situation. It is heartbreaking and yet show how brave these women are. I will read her other books; she has a very stylish way of narrating true stories.
Many thanks to Net Galley and the publisher for provide me with the soft copy to read and share my opinion.

Willow-






Willow
Jenny Crisp

A guide to growing and harvesting!

I enjoyed Willow very much. Never had any basket making experience yet found it very interesting. For someone who knows the basic this is a very good book.
 It covers the history and how to grow, cut and prepare willow for crafting. High quality pictures are beautiful and shows clear step by step instructions, showing basic and advance weaving techniques. Before this book I had no idea how much work goes into creating beautiful woven items, Now I have a totally different vision.   
 Many thanks to Netgalley for sending me a kindle copy to read.

Because you're the love of my Life-






Because you're the love of my life
Sarah Kleck

Author of the lakewood series

This is the first book I read from the author, Sarah Klek, I really like the cover and that was the reason I started reading the book. It is the story of Annie’s love life and all the struggles she goes through in her life, that is not far from reality and it is a story of so many women. 
I struggled a bit with her character though and found this book not very different from all the others out there. At the same time there are two sentences that I highlighted and even copied in my notebook that I would like to share: 

“It’s only too late when you’ve given up on yourself” 

“We become who we are through the choices we make” 

No matter what, there is always something you can learn reading a book. Thank you Netgalley for providing me a copy of this book and allowing me to read it.

Happily Ever After-






Happily Ever After
GB Amman

An Italian Relationship!

This was the first book I read from GB Amman, the story focuses mostly on how confuse people get not knowing what kind of relationship they are in, confusing jealousy with love. And finding it very difficult to get out of such relationship. 

Leda is in love with Sergio, a boy who is really not her type, she is in genetic engineer while the writer refers to Sergio as a pothead. For her it is a relationship that is important while the boy doesn’t even think it is a relationship.so Leda has 2 choice either Be smart and move on, or be stupid and get laid?   

A they spend more time together Sergio gets more jealous and they are constantly arguing over trust issues. 
  
Very simply written and fluent book sharing common struggles young generation have. Sometimes love can be complicated. People who love each other hurt each other the most.
