<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">About the Book</span></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">"The Oracle's Journal," by Dimitri Liountris is an urban fantasy novel with interesting characters, an imaginative premise, and an engaging plot.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The story is set into motion when the powers of gods are given to four teenagers -- Blake Holden, Monique Bishop, and Jen and Eric Storm. When the book opens, the characters are your typical teenagers, but they come into their own once they realize magic has been woven throughout their lives and been affecting their interactions. Each character is an individual and brings their own unique attributes to the table. Not only does the reader get to see the unique attributes of each individual from the start, but also each characters' evolution as the story progresses. The characters have an array of powers, ranging from the elements (fire, water, wind, etc) to motion powers, such as telekinesis and gravity control. The seemingly normal teenagers are transformed into the guardians of sixteen different realms, and the readers gets to come along for the journey.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Pitted against the teenagers is a formidable antagonist -- Serena -- who used to be queen of Earth a hundred thousand years ago and now will stop at nothing to get her throne back. Unfortunately for the guardians, Serena is aided by powerful knights. To regain her power, Serena must search for the Oracle’s Journal, a book filled with several powerful spells, including one that can make Serena a goddess. One of the great things about Serena is she is a villain the reader can understand, not simply root against and hate. Her powers include six magical elements, including motion, lightning, and wind, and additionally, she is an expert sword fighter. Furthermore, she has been toughened by her one-hundred-thousand years in the hellish Chaos Realm.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The book is 1,026 pages, but the writing style, interesting characters, and fascinating settings make it not a difficult read. The books is filled with action, magic, and lots of twists and turns to keep the reader engaged. Liountris shines with imaginative scenarios and a fast-paced plot. In short, if you're a fan of urban fantasy, you'll enjoy "The Oracle's Journal."</span></span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">About the Book</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Dr. Joyce Addo-Atuah's <span style="font-style: italic;">“The Power of Thanksgiving: A Blueprint for Contentment, Fulfillment, and Well-Being through Gratitude" </span>is an inspirational Christian book that teaches you how to change your life by finding gratitude and contentment.</span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span></b>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The book opens with the basics of being thankful, such as</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> why we should be thankful, what we should be thankful for and how to express this gratitude. Additionally, it teaches you how to create a lifestyle of gratitude that impacts all aspects of your day-to-day life. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">One of the strengths of the book is its broad appeal. Anyone, no matter where you are in your life, can benefit from following Dr. Addo-Atuah's steps to finding gratitude in their day-to-day life. By following the steps in the book, the reader is able to appreciate various aspects of their life, leading to more gratitude, happiness, and contentment, regardless of their current situation. Although the book has a lot of information from a Christian perspective, readers of different faiths can appreciate the universal nature of the principles of gratitude and thankfulness. The book is organized in a way that each chapter focuses on a particular theme. For instance, Chapter 5 describes how to </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">benefit from developing and demonstrating gratitude, Chapter 6 describes how the reader will experience the health and social benefits of a gratitude lifestyle, and Chapter 7 includes a four-step call-to-action. Throughout the book, Dr. Addo-Atuah references</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> information from science, scripture, and the author's own </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">perspective, so everyone has something they can relate to. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Another strength of the book is the amount of inspiring scriptures and hymns in the book, all of which</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> share a theme of thanksgiving and gratitude. Dr. Addo-Atuah tailored the selection of scripture to the specific topic she is discussing at the time, allowing the reader to make connections between Biblical events and principles. King David is referenced often as an example of someone who continually demonstrates gratitude toward God. Dr. Addo-Atuah's background as a </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">college professor is evident throughout the book as she writes in a professional yet approachable style with clear, concise language.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Another important aspect of Dr. Addo-Atuah's mission is her desire to help the rural people of Ghana. Reader's can help Dr. Addo-Atuah's vision </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">by posting reviews of the book and also encouraging their family and friends to also get involved. The book is available </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Books-a-Million, Hudson books, and independent bookstores supplied by Ingram Spark. There is also an audiobook version, which is available through Amazon, Audible, iTunes and many other audiobook outlets. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Additionally, the book will be on a seven-day Kindle countdown deal on Amazon for the Kindle version beginning on Friday, September 13 with a starting price of $1.99 which will be increased gradually through to September 20, 2019 when it returns to the normal retail price of $5.99.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In summary, if you're looking to change your life by practicing gratitude every day, you need to pick up your copy of <i>"</i></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><i>Thanksgiving: A Blueprint for Contentment, Fulfillment, and Well-Being through Gratitude"</i> by Dr. Joyce Addo-Atuah.</span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">About the Book</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Ian Primmer's novella, “Hometown: The Puget Sound Kids of the 1990s," is a fun, fast-paced coming-of-age story set in 1990s Pacific Northwest.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The story follows a Cody Muller, a young misfit who finds himself in various trials, struggles, and adventures as he learns more about himself. In a sense, <span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Cody is the embodiment of the experience of growing up in the 1990s in the Pacific Northwest. His life is a roller coaster of mistakes and loss. From s</span>uicide attempts to acts of mischief, Cody is perpetually getting himself in trouble. Cody has a desire to be a better person and make the right decisions, but he is unable to control his behavior.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One of the strengths of the novella is it makes you feel like you are in 1990s Pacific Northwest. Primmer draws on his own experience, having grown up in the Pacific Northwest during the '90s, to capture the setting. Additionally, Primmer's writing draws inspiration from the grunge movement, made famous by Temple of the Dog, Pearl Jam, and Nirvana.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Throughout the story, Primmer does an excellent job of capturing the experience of growing up. The universality of youth is navigated with affecting characters and powerful writing. Although, as a novella, this is a relatively quick read, Primmer is able to really develop the characters and connect the reader with each character's story. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For fans of Primmer's writing, you won't have to wait long for another book. In a recent <a href="https://www.writersinterviews.com/2019/08/hometown-puget-sound-ian-primmer.html">writer interview</a>, Primmer stated he's working on another book, titled</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">“Hang 'Em High," about the modern punishment for an active shooter.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In conclusion, if you're looking for an interesting, quick read in the coming-of-age genre, you'll enjoy Ian Primmer's "Hometown: The Puget Sound Kids of the 1990s."</span></span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">About the Book</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Kelli L. Decker's "San Francisco Golden Crime" is an edge-of-year-seat murder mystery novel set in San Francisco, California.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The story follows Mike, an architect who recently relocated to the Bay Area from Sedona, AZ, and his loyal Black Labrador, Farley. On a walk in the Marin Headlands, Farley makes a startling discovery that upends Mike and Farley's lives. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As a suspense/mystery novel, "San Francisco Golden Crime" is filled with twists and turns. Decker is not afraid to take the reader in unexpected directions, keeping you guessing with each turn of the page. In addition to the thriller/suspense elements, Decker includes plenty of touching, heartfelt moments that make the characters feel real and connect the reader to the story. In a recent <a href="https://www.writersinterviews.com/2019/08/san-francisco-golden-crime-mystery-decker.html">author interview</a>, when talking about her inspiration for the sentimental aspects of the story, Decker said, "I drew from real life experiences. We all have emotions good and bad, we all have a story and with it carries happiness, sadness, scary times, connections and empathy for others, and at times the loss of life."</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">One of the the strengths of the novel is Decker's ability to capture the magic of San Francisco. She highlights the nature scenes of the Bay Area, such as Hawk Hill, in addition to the recognizable locations -- The Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman’s Wharf, The Sunset District, and Lombard Street. As you read the story, you become more and more engrossed in the location -- feeling as if you have been transported to San Francisco. She excels at capturing the distinct character of each region, such as the architecture in the Marina district and the relaxed vibe of the Sunset District.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Although this novel will appeal to a broad range of readers, dog lovers will particularly enjoy this story, especially Farley, the Black Labrador. He plays a major role in driving the story forward, and Decker does an excellent job of capturing the loving relationship between Mike and Farley. They have a close-knit friendship and are very in-sync with each other's needs and emotions -- something all dog lovers can relate to. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">For readers who can't get enough "San Francisco Golden Crime," rest assured, Decker has stated a sequel is on the way! If you're a fan of mystery novels with touching moments and a beautiful setting, you'll want to check out Kelli L Decker's "San Francisco Golden Crime."</span><br />

<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>Today's post features Joshua C. Carroll's upper-middle grade novel, </b><b>“The Adventures of Sarah Ann Lewis and the Memory Thieves," a story with elements of the mystery, rural sci-fi, and thriller genres.</b></span><br />
<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">About the Book</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The story follows protagonist, Sarah Ann, a girl who is learning to be accepted -- but her self-discovery is interrupted (or enhanced) when she realizes she's being stalked by spies, uncovering secrets, and meeting mad scientists. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Thirteen-year-old Sarah is a character the reader can relate to. She’s finding herself, trying to do the right thing, curious about the world around her, but at the same time struggling with her living situation. She lives in the country in rural Texas with her grandfather. She must step out of her comfort zone when she joins forces with mysterious "people" called The Sentinels. She must get over her mistrust of them as working with them is the only way to save life as she knows it.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One of the strengths of the book is its broad appeal. Although it's aimed at a middle grade audience, it has plenty of twists and turns in its plot to entertain readers of all ages. The u</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">pper middle grade genre is unique in that it is approachable for younger readers yet still has complex ideas, heartfelt themes and multi-dimensional characters. "Sarah Ann" is unique in that</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> it has elements from multiple genres, namely elements from rural sci-fi, mystery and thriller genres. There literally is something for everyone in this book, from spies to family secrets to intelligent animals to shapeshifters and more!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Another interesting aspect of "Sarah Ann" is its setting. Set in 1988, readers are transported to a world where Facebook, HD TV, and other aspects of modern life aren't in existence. In a recent <a href="https://www.writersinterviews.com/2019/08/sarah-ann-mystery-thieves-middle-grade-carroll.html">writer interview</a>, Carroll talked about the challenges of writing a book set in the 1980s, stating, "</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I wanted to share a bit of that world with new readers who can’t imagine what life was like the phone was connected to the wall by a coiled cord and most people didn’t even own a computer ... it felt simpler writing a story where people aren’t constantly staring at screens and texting each other and posting things to social media. " Readers who are familiar with the period will enjoy revisiting their past while younger readers will be entertained at the slower pace of life in 1980s Texas.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you're curious about how readers have responded to "Sarah Ann" so far, the book has received positive reviews on Amazon. One Amazon reviewer said, "...</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I tried to read carefully for details, but I began to enjoy it so much I soon realized I was being swept along and decided to just enjoy the ride!" Another reviewer said, "</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The characters are relatable and unique, the plot keeps you guessing, and the world that the author has built is deep and layered. Highly recommended for readers of all ages."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Readers of "Sarah Ann" will be pleased to know Carroll is working on the sequel. Additionally, in a recent interview, Caroll talked about working on two other novels, stating, "...one is a post-apocalyptic sci-fi that involves quantum computing, data mining, and an alien substance that can be manipulated so that its molecular structure changes. The other is a story of a time traveler stuck in the body of the son his mother would have had if he had never been born."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">In closing, if you're looking for a fun upper middle grade story with likable characters, a fun setting, and influences from multiple genres, look no further than "</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The Adventures of Sarah Ann Lewis and the Memory Thieves." Now is a great time to get your copy!

<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">About the Book</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">As part of an Enchanted Book Promotions tour, we are reviewing "Taking Wing," by Clemency Crow. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">This is a middle grade adventure novel that follows protagonist twelve-year-old Freya. She lives a seemingly normal life, including karate classes and loved ones, until she encounters a mysterious boy who has yellow eyes. This mysterious character introduces Freya to a world she couldn't have ever imagined -- complete with powerful guardians embroiled in a battle that's limiting their potential.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s6R6MoVXjZo/XSKwZVnEJZI/AAAAAAAAHWY/JI7n-delxkY6xsSXxjEiUvGN5eKxFkTFQCLcBGAs/s1600/Taking-Wing-Clemency-Crow-middlegrade.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; font-family: verdana, sans-serif; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em; text-align: center;"><img alt="middle grade, enchanted promotions, taking wings, taking wing, taking wing book, clemency crow, middle grade adventure, clemency author kids books, kids lit" border="0" data-original-height="918" data-original-width="575" height="320" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-s6R6MoVXjZo/XSKwZVnEJZI/AAAAAAAAHWY/JI7n-delxkY6xsSXxjEiUvGN5eKxFkTFQCLcBGAs/s320/Taking-Wing-Clemency-Crow-middlegrade.jpg" title="taking wing by clemency crow" width="200" /></a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Freya quickly immerses herself in this new world, finding a home in a castle and making good friends with the crow tribe. Life isn't perfect for Freya -- there is a destructive shadow within her that prevents her from experiencing peace. She labors with her friends to fix the turmoil within the guardians ... but it is no easy task. Readers will find themselves anxiously turning the pages, wanting to know what happens next. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">One of the things I love about this book is Crow's writing style. She is able to juggle humor, action, and world-building seamlessly, really drawing you into the story. Another aspect of the story is the strong character development. I felt connected to Freya and Elialdor, wanting them to succeed and worrying when things weren't going their way. The pacing of the book is also well-done -- not too fast, not too slow. The book opens with a flashback from the past of a dramatic funeral scene that sets up the rest of the book. From start to finish, the book manages keeps up at a steady base with a decent balance of down time, action, and mystery. The end of the story does not disappoint -- leaving you thinking yet still satisfied. </span><br />

<span style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"></span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">About the Book</span></b><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Dipa Sanatani's <i>The Little Light: A Story of Reincarnation and the Crazy Cosmic Family</i> is a spirituality / <a href="https://dipasanatani.com/">young adult fantasy novel</a> that anyone who likes their YA books with a side of mythology is sure to enjoy!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The story follows the Little Light -- a curious, innocent soul who personifies many of humanity's universal traits -- fear, courage, love, apprehension. The reader follows along as the Little Light learns, grows, and overcomes. Luckily for the Little Light (and the reader), the celestial beings -- Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu -- are there to help. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The Celestial Beings are far from perfect, each with their own shortcomings -- in some sense, they could be viewed as a more-realized version of humanity, complete with arguments and limiting beliefs. Fortunately, they come together to aid the Little Light on its journey to birth on Earth. If the Celestial Beings seem familiar, it's because they are, having been written about for millennia in the myths of various cultures around the world. Sanatani, however, manages to make these beings approachable and relatable for the modern reader as she personifies them as a family and shows their flaws and doesn't sugar-coat their actions.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">One of the strengths of the novel is Sanatani's writing. She manages to bring human qualities to supernatural characters without compromising their wisdom or transcendent nature. With succinct narration and descriptive dialogue, Sanatani captures the unique characteristics of each Celestial Being -- from the impulsive to the annoying to the level-headed. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The book opens with a beautiful conversation between the wise Dag and the Little Light, setting the tone of discovery for the rest of the book.</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> Additionally, without giving it away, readers will really enjoy the clever chapter titles (hint: there is a theme)! For those who are curious (or who hate cliff-hanger endings), I'm happy to report <i>The Little Light</i>'s ending is enjoyable and satisfying, but leaves enough questions to be answered in a sequel.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><br /></b>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Another strength of the story is its theme. Although the book is an enjoyable read, it's not mindless entertainment -- it makes you think, contemplate, and grow. Sanatani explores reincarnation, mythology, and cosmology in</span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">a fun, approachable way that makes you relish the experience of learning. While reading the book, I often found myself looking up aspects of mythology mentioned in the book -- not because I needed clarification, but because I was curious and wanted to learn more. </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">In a recent </span><a href="https://www.writersinterviews.com/2019/07/little-light-reincarnation-dipa-sanatani.html">author interview</a><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">, Sanatani cites her influences as J.K. Rowling and Roald Dahl. The ethereal, fantastical nature of her writing, although certainly her own style, certainly demonstrates some of these influences. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><b><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>In summary, if you're a fan of young adult novels with a fascinating spiritual/mythology element, you will love </span><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><i>The Little Light: A Story of Reincarnation and the Crazy Cosmic Family</i> by Dipa Sanatani.</span></span><br />

<b style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">About the Book</span></b></div>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Brad Livengood's <i>Liberty Man</i> is a heartfelt novel set during the American Revolution. The story follows protagonist Gabriel Brower who, although at first glance is just an average blue-collar worker trying to get through a trying period, suddenly finds himself face-to-face with William Kinney -- an American Revolution soldier ... who has been dead for more than a century.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">The reader learns about William's affecting story, including a quest to find his lost love who has been kidnapped by the Major. Readers are exposed to, not only the historical elements of the American Revolution time period, but themes that transcend time period -- such as friendship, love, sadness, and death. The universal mysteries of the human condition are explored with an engaging narrative that keeps your attention from start to finish. Livengood intertwines the stories of Gabriel and William, showing the reader their differences, but more importantly, their similarities. With succinct, concise narration and affecting dialogue between two people from different time periods, Livengood layers his writing, creating a central narrative thread from separate stories. He explores themes central to American history, such as liberty, as well as elements of the Gospel and the search for redemption. One of Livengood's strengths is writing characters that are flawed but likable -- partially because we can see pieces of ourselves within them. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">If you are a fan of historical fiction novels that explore deep truths with complicated characters, then <i>Liberty Man</i> by Brad Livengood is worth checking out!</span><br />

With her Bohemian perspective, she writes in a simple manner, sharing techniques, exercises and powerful thoughts that can help the reader overcome all of the challenges life has to offer. Schubart's guidance is not limited to just the basic self-help domains -- but includes advice on looking young, feeling young, getting closer to loved ones, achieving your goals, having more energy, continually learning and so much more. If you're looking for a one-stop-shop book on self-love written by someone who has learned from experience, you will love Schubart's "Sanguine-Love." </span><br />
