Title: Things you know when you read 2,000 books

Author: Ella Yoon 

My thoughts:

Ella Yoon's debut novel immerses readers into the enchanting realm of literature. The merits of reading are manifold. Ella has read more than 2000 books once she developed the taste of reading. A random visit to a bookstore was the turning point of her life. 

Once Ella delved into the world of literature, there was no turning back. She embarked on a journey of endless exploration, discovering the boundless adventures that reading offers. Ella eschews the notion of fixed reading times, embracing the freedom to indulge in books at any moment, whether waiting or commuting.

Setting a goal of devouring 100 books annually, Ella pursued her passion alongside her professional commitments, dedicating her leisure time to the pursuit of knowledge through literature. Her dedication serves as an inspiration, kindling a desire within others, including myself, to delve deeper into the world of books.

I wholeheartedly endorse this captivating read. Ella's debut showcases her remarkable talent, leaving me eagerly anticipating her future works. The narrative flows effortlessly, captivating the reader with each turn of the page, ensuring a thoroughly enjoyable experience from start to finish.

Walking Spirit in a Native Way

  Book: Walking Spirit in a Native Way  Author: James B. Beard My Thoughts: From the opening dedication to the final reflections, Beard constructs a narrative rich with reverence—for the Elders who taught him, for the land, and for the unseen forces that shaped his transformation.  The structure of the book is simple: Beard moves between intimate memories and the teachings he absorbs over the years. But underneath that simplicity is a meaningful exploration of belonging. I was deeply moved by the vulnerability he brings to discussing identity. Beard doesn’t claim ownership of traditions not originally his; instead, his story is one of being shaped, humbled, and guided by Indigenous communities through years of service and learning. In a time when cultural storytelling can be mishandled or sensationalized, this book stands out for its reverence and restraint. The memoir also engages readers who enjoy contemplative pacing. This book is a long walk beside the author as he le...

  Book: Awakening the Mystic  Author: Rob Dorgan  Review: Rob Dorgan’s Awakening the Mystic is a radiant fusion of fiction, memoir, and spiritual teaching. The novel follows Ren, a seeker whose yearning for inner peace leads him from Catholic traditions to yoga, astrology, and ultimately a transcendent love with his partner, Sean. The story is both personal and universal—inviting readers to reflect on their own journeys of identity, loss, and healing. What stands out most is how Dorgan uses mystical experiences—dreams of saints, visions of silver threads, encounters with archetypal feminine energies—to illustrate the profound truth that love is the essence of human connection. The narrative gently educates without preaching, weaving in yoga philosophy, Patanjali’s Sutras, and the healing power of mudras and mantras. It reads like a soul-guide disguised as a novel. For anyone seeking a book that nourishes both heart and spirit, Awakening the Mystic offers not only an engag...
