Elizabeth's Mountain is a story set around two generations and their experiences with love.  This is a delightful tale. Elizabeth is ninety-years-old now.

  🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Book: Life's Miscellaneous Wonders Author: Stasia Jade Maharaj Rating: 4/5 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Review: The author has faced harsh realities and life threatening situations which has shaped her in writing this book. It is inspired by her own emotions and experiences till now. The author's journey made me realize I have to go a long way as I am still naive about many things. "Veins to Vines" makes us wonder how we share similar traits with strangers. It makes us realize how sometimes after meeting a stranger, we get entangled with them and feel as if we belong there for our whole life. I am currently experiencing this situation where I am in love with a guy who doesn't feel the same for me and I am unable to give up on him.  "What is, was to be" tells us not to regret anything in life.

  🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Book: Fallout Author: April Simons Rating: 5/5 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 Review: Korie is a strong character that is immediately likable. I loved the way she looks after her family and Haven community in the absence of her father. Even though she is young and a kid herself, she isn't afraid to face the challenges. She looks after her sisters, gathers food for her community, plans to keep her community safe, goes out in search of her father, etc.  The thought of losing another family member after losing her mother and Dean gives a deep chest ache to her. When her dad returned to Haven after the incident at the medical center, Korie filled him in on everything. When her dad checked the video footage, he noticed two guys in it who had worked for Roy before coming to Haven. Is Roy behind the attack?  Korie's dad thought of confronting his friend Roy. Roy needed the blood of Korie's family to run some tests. What is his motive behind doing that? Could he hurt Korie and her famil...
