  The Glass Angel by Christina Foxwell Review: This is the story of the author who was abused by a family member in her childhood. She felt guilty and didn't forgive herself for years. During her healing journey, Christina realised rebuilding trust in herself and also rebuilding connection with courage and trust is possible. I was glad to know that Christina came to a point in her life when she realised that she is good enough. The valuable knowledge that the author has shared in this book from her experiences would be so much helpful to others in their life.  This engaging book is a gem. If you are looking for peace for yourself or if you want to help someone else in living a peaceful life then don't wait to read this book. This book will show light to many people who are stuck. Read this memoir. I am sure you would thank me later for recommending this book to you. Rating: 5/5

  Cradles of the Reich by Jennifer Coburn Review: Jennifer's 'Cradles of the Reich' takes the readers back to the dark period of history. This story alternates between the three women. Readers will get to know about the Nazi breeding program history. Readers would find that all the three women have very different views and come from different backgrounds. I could bet most of you won't be aware of this part of World War two. The most impressive thing about this book is the wide research by the author. Jennifer has done mind-blowing work in this book. With simple and easy to understand language, readers will enjoy this book.  Hats off to the author for the research done and the knowledge shared with us through this book. Rating: 4.5/5

  Candy Sky Tells A Lie by Shanna P Lowe My Thoughts: Shanna Lowe has written a heart warming, funny story that will stay in the reader's head for a long time.  The center of the story is a teenager Candice who is good at lying. To cover her earlier lies, she lied more. Candy's lie put her into a troublesome situation when her English teacher Mrs Gulligan was determined to teach her a lesson.  Candice received the curse from her teacher. According to the curse, her lies will turn true. Now, the Cursed World is new to Candy and things went into her favor initially but it won't be the case forever. Candy has to bear the consequences of her deeds. The curse by Mrs Gulligan made Candice happy. Will it also become the reason for her sadness? The pace of the story is fast and I wasn't bored anytime while reading this book. I highly recommend it. With strong and smooth narration, I read this book in a flow without putting it down.
