*****REVIEW ~THREADS OF DECEPTION~~
By Author James Fletcher
More than one murder has been committed, all with the same
underlying clues, and dead bodies leave a trail for investigation.
A contract is out to kill a man, but the wrong man is murdered,
leaving former Austin police sergeant Chase Alexander as the
primary target. While desperately attempting to save his own life,
Chase takes matters into his own hands. He begins his mission
by searching for his missing father, then goes back into the past, and
digs up years of family secrets. Throughout his journey into the unknown to answer the mysterious questions leading to the murders,
Chase finds more-and-more lies. Time was running out, and answers
needed to be found to crucial questions in order to solve the case.
Why did the criminals want to kill Chase? Who was the contract
really for? Where was Chase's father? What lies, and secrets did
Chase find? Who were the two hitmen, and who hired them? Why
were other people murdered, and where did the names of the
deceased lead to? I recommend "Threads Of Deception" to all
mystery lovers. The characters in this riveting thriller electrify the
pages that are covered in conspiracy, and betrayal. James Fletcher
chose a title that fits this head-snapping novel like the perfect glove
to fit his hand. This book is filled with nonstop twists as good as
a reader would find in the series "Murder She Wrote." The clever
author introduces nail-biting suspense page-after-page, then leaves
the ending with a great surprise. "Threads Of Deception" is clearly
a steady engrossing thriller that leaves you on the edge of your seat.
The reader could feel the same escalating tension as if viewing one
of Alfred Hitchcock's finest. Before the final closing of the curtains,
drama soaks the pages in this gripping thriller that gives the reader
the same creepy chills as if viewing "Death Wish."

****REVIEW ~How To Keep God In Your Life~
By Dominique L. Watson
"How To Keep God In Your Life" is written with enthusiasm, and
creativity by Dominique L. Watson. The author clearly steps out
from "Inspire Me Young" into "How To Keep God In Your Life"
as an additional contribution to society, offering peaceful and
healing solutions through religious, and spiritual direction to
God's Kingdom. I recommend this book to teens and adults who
wish to seek guidance and comfort in the spiritual sense, and as a
motivational, healthy benefit to our psychological well-being.
"How To Keep God In Your Life" is as refreshing as "Acts Of Kindness."
Inspiration and compassion flow from the pages, and the reader is
left with comfort, and peace from within!

*****REVIEW ~~A CRYING ROSE~~
By Sarah Abdulaziz
Sarah Abdulaziz pens a unique, inspirational, and thought-provoking
collection of poetry titled "Crying Rose." The young author created a
Masterpiece from life's experiences, and voices her opinion of pity
and sadness that covers the world we live in, like a blanket, visualized
through poetic eyes. What better place to begin taking notes, and jot
observation is there, other than the Big Apple, better known as the
greatest city in the world? Born in Brooklyn and residing in New York
for forty-five years, I can witness the reality and truth in Sarah's
life painting which is based on current events, politics, and humanity.
From the poem "The Night I Got Up To Pray" tugs at the reader's heart,
and sorrow covers the page. "When a poor, innocent child runs to
hide, the child ends up dying, taken from the poem "Unfaithful."
The author clearly speaks of war, and it's tragic effects on the
innocent, and how much suffering exists in the world. From the
passage "lost Her True Love" defines loss of a loved one, and the
pain left behind. "Hold your head up high" from the poem
"Be Strong" fills the page with inspiration, pride, and a new
found hope. I recommend "Crying Rose" to teens, adults, and all
poetry lovers. The work of Sarah Abdulaziz is as heartfelt, and as
compassionate as that of Susan Polis Schutz.

*****REVIEW ~~~AN OPEN VEIN~~~
By Katherine Warwick
Katherine Warwick is an author who certainly has had expertise in
dance-romance novels, now surprises the reading audience with
her psychological, spine-tingling thriller, "An Open Vein." As a
health professional for thirty years, a graduate from a psychiatric
school of Nursing, and a born-and-bred New Yorker were the reasons
that drew me into Warwick's cleverly written plot, immediately with
overwhelming interest. The main character, John Banks is a high
school graduate at age sixteen, and is accepted into pre-med. Everyone
knows that John is a genius, but they don't know that he lives in a
strange, confusing world. Although his IQ may be high, he lacks
common sense, not to mention self-esteem. He decides to spend time
in New York with Kane, a life-long friend. Kane taught John how to
read people, and get into their heads, but the ultimate question that
prevails is one which makes this novel a page turner. Can John read
Kane? John's life becomes threatened, according to Kane, but how
can we believe in Kane? The more you read about Kane, the more
psychotic he becomes, and John becomes a prisoner of abuse. The
reader is forced to ponder on two essential questions. Why did John
allow Kane to hold him hostage, like an animal in a cage? How is it
possible that someone who suffers from a mental illness is usually
not investigated until after damage has been done to himself, and
society? The author paints a realistic New York setting, the plot is
as superb as the psychological thriller, "Psycho." I recommend this
novel to teens, adults, and all mystery lovers. "An Open Vein" is as
chilling as "WHAT LIES BENEATH" with Harrison Ford, and Michelle
Pfeiffer!

*****REVIEW ~Visionary From The Stars~
BY Virginia Lori Jennings
In her second science fiction novel, Virginia Lori Jennings takes the reader
through another incredible galactic journey as the Platonians plan to
sabotage the Star Traveler's crew, and a lone scientist is faced with
intergalactic controversy. Can Jean McClain save humanity? Is the
Galactic Bible ever found? Will the ancient quest continue its saga into the
land of the unknown? What happens in the mission from Ganymede to
Exandra? I recommend this book to teens, young adults, and all science
fiction lovers. "Missionary From The Stars" is action-packed, and is as
mysterious as "The Alien Mind." The clever author manages to fill the pages
with breathtaking black magic, while entertaining the reader with the
ultimate alien encounter as good as Steven Spielberg's Masterpiece, "E.T."

*****REVIEW ~THE PRISONER~ MJ ALLAIRE
"The Prisoner" is the second book in MJ Allaire's fictional, fantasy series
that is indeed another Great Adventure! The reader is taken once again
through another fascinating journey as the lost children desperately
search for each other through the dark, land of the unknown. The
girls can't find the boys, new creatures blossom like flowers, and the
children are challenged to dip into their past as they confront an
unexplained mystery. Will all the children reunite again? What do they
find in the castle? Can the new world be changed? I recommend
"The Prisoner" to teens, adults, and all fantasy lovers. The author adds
sparks to this novel, like the Fourth-Of-July, fulfilling the reader's
curiosity, after diving into the exquisite "Dragon's Blood." The ending
of "The Prisoner" makes the reader crave for "Dragon's Tear."
"The Prisoner" is cleverly written, captures the world's imagination,
and the whirlwind adventure continues as the creatures come to
life! This novel is as action-packed as "Men In Black." "The Prisoner"
fills the reader's heart with memorable moments that strikes a chord
in everyone, and is as breathtaking as Walt Disney's "Swiss Family
Robinson."
