This novel sounds so good. Would love to read it. The title is The Sale God’s Daughter. It’s about bullying too.

wild by Cheryl Strayed
When I had no roof, I made audacity my roof- Robert Pinsky
I never heard of the Pacific Crest Trail. Now after reading wild by Cheryl Strayed I will never forget it. The Pacific Crest Trail is not a trail to take lightly. The weather conditions are harsh. Their aren’t many other hikers on this trail, and there aren’t any well developed lodges like the photos you might see in a ...

Aleph by Paulo Coelho
You will be very happy to know I’ve experienced Aleph, NOT sexual. Just a moment in time when I felt fully loved by the universe and myself. Didn’t want the moment to go away. So unique and special. Aleph is real. I don’t think you can understand it until you experience it. You can desire it, but to “feel” it is so much more…..Total freedom.paulocoelho “I...

WHEN RAIN FALLS by TYORA M. MOODY
“Darnell could hear the pride and sadness mixed in the judge’s voice. Pamela had been a real-life female Perry Mason in her own right. Many innocent persons—and criminals, forthat matter-would miss her services.”

Night Hawk by Beverly Jenkins
Maggie and Ian have me all stirred up for adventure and romance. Ian is a bounty hunter, deputy sheriff and a preacher. Yes, he can beat the slop out of a bad guy while at the same time he can quote a scripture from the Song of Solomon in the Holy Bible. Plus, Ian is very, very handsome. He’s a man of color from Scotland. However, the novel, Night Hawk, is a story that takes place out west...
