  ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ Book: Havana Hangover Author: Randy Richardson Rating: 5/5 ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ Review: Randy Richardson's latest book 'Havana Hangover' is an espionage thriller set in Havana. Tanner Ford and Anabel Dubois were together in college. When Anabel met Jackson Swift, the two of them got involved with each other thereby hurting Tanner. Tanner hadn't expected his best friend to take away his girlfriend.  This put a stain on their relationship and Tanner moved on. Even though Tanner moved on, the hurt he got from being cheated made his life hell for the past five years. In Havana, when Jackson went missing, we found Tanner looking for him at 5 am in the morning.  What could have happened to Jackson? With every turning page, tension rises and the readers might bite their nails while wondering where Jackson is. The story is written in a smooth flow. This is the first book written by the author that I have read but it won't be the last one for sure. The cover photo is eye-...

When Louis Pfeif left home for training, the family dog Bรคrchen followed him with the thinking that he would protect his master for the time Louis was away from home.  During the training, Bรคrchen showed various skills and tactics which made Louis sure that he would do great on the battlefield too. Second Lieutenant Pfeif was attached to the Fifty-Eighth Illinois regiment. On the battlefield, Bรคrchen's eyes, ears, nose everything stayed alert. He did the best he could do to protect his master.  The way the story ends is different from my expectations but I loved the faithfulness of Bรคrchen. While reading this story, I became fond o...

  ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ Book: The Many Wonders of Deanie Author: Bernadine Ziegler Rating: 5/5 ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ Review: 'Peek-A-Boo' is a poem that would take married couples down the memory lane and would remind them of their courtship days. The author felt blessed to get the kind of man she ever wanted as her soon-to-be husband.  'He always brings me flowers' is a great story. In this, the author always had a wish to receive flowers from her man. Then one day, she found Mr. Perfect who first gave her a single red rose and then more flowers on more days. She got the intuition that he is the one. Some other poems or stories that I loved from this collection are: my first and second car, My Three Little Angels, Coffee, etc. This book takes readers on a rollercoaster ride full of different emotions. I binge read this book on the weekend. I am truly grateful to the author for sharing her thoughts with each of us. The writing style of Bernadine is different and I enjoyed it. It would be gre...

  ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ Book: His Ultimate Path Author: Bernadine Ziegler  Rating: 5/5 ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ Review: "His Ultimate Path" written by the author Bernadine Ziegler contains diary entries from different years of the author's life. This book takes us closer to God. It enhances our faith in God. God wants our love and trust. He also wants to give love to us.  "A Perfect World" is a world of God in which he has created all the living and breathing things. God is everything for the author.  "A Prayer to God" depicts that the author couldn't imagine life without God. She obeys the Lord and has her everlasting devotion. 'A letter to you', 'I'm Thankful For', 'I'll Never Forget' are few of the chapters from the book that are my favorite. God is the ultimate path. With his blessings, our life gets better. I got positive vibes while reading this book. The author has undoubtedly done a wonderful job in this book. The author has chosen t...
