Silas Morlock by Mark Cantrell (Book Review #418)
What I enjoyed most about the book was its originality. The literature was strong, and the pace was steady keeping the reader interested wanting to know what was to come. Adam had a neat personality. He wasn’t the hero everyone wants to see. He is a misfit but, happens to be given great responsibility.
The world description stood out for me. It had the descriptive nature of a good story and did not overexpose the parts where you would need to keep in order for the story to move forward. I believe anyone interested in science fiction and dystopian stories would really enjoy this one.
The work could improve where it all comes together, but that did not take away anything from enjoying the nature of its substance.
I believe the author has potential in creating good work and is one to look out for.

Immediacy: Our Ways of Coping in Everyday Life (Book Review #189)
“I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars.”
This book was an “OnlineBookClub.org Book of the Day.”
Immediacy is a non-fiction – Psychology – Social Science book written about ways of which we can cope in everyday life.
The book begins with informing us that from the day we are born, every single one of us must cope with the world we live in. Based on how effective with cope, we succeed to survive. The transaction between an organism and its environment is vital if one is to live a fulfilled life. The book dwells on the social- psychological aspect of the transactions taking place and believes that it is in fact, out inadequate ways of looking for information which creates human pain and suffering.
I found the book to be academically suited. It felt like reading a thesis and that the author was in the process of bringing something new to the table. The literature standard was outstanding and although the book appears to be written in an educational way, I believe anyone would enjoy getting to know more about the social aspect of human behavior.

Immediacy is the focus of this book and it is examined in five ways. The author really categorizes the topics he wishes to discuss in a very organized way. The chapters and layout of the book, for instance, examines Transcendence, Constriction, Impingings, Transformation, and the unknowable in immediacy throughout the book. The paradigm is discussed through various essays and it is a venture.
In summary, the book beautifully informs us that unanswered questions are to be a catalyst. It should energize and awaken us to new possibilities rather than disappoint and dissatisfy us.
I highly recommend this book to psychologists, social science readers, and people that appreciate knowing more about human behavior.

Reincarnation by Tabitha Zalot (Book Review #190)
Reincarnation is a non- fiction- semi-religious book written about Karma and what happens after death. The author believes that there are seven levels of astral worlds where people have to evolve through different lives until they reach the level of Karma, which can liberate them from the reincarnation cycle.
I found the book to lack major references and substantial evidence to suggest the opinions mentioned in the content. There are some indications of the type of religions or faith that do think the same in reincarnation, but the author failed to really create a believable argument to convince the reader and validate his thoughts.
The book was very short and focused more on good Karma, bad Karma instead of reincarnation itself. The other thing I would like to add is that the book did have some editing issues. There were sentences starting with “so” or at one time the paragraph began with “long story short”, which indicates the lack of quality in providing acceptable written literature.
Besides all mentioned above, the author does succeed in providing a glimpse of what the astral world is like and how one can succeed in evolving their soul.

Laurel by Helen Mathey-Horn (Book Review #417)
I enjoyed the fact that the story revolved around the society and social norm alongside focusing on women empowerment and working as an artist. Laurel is strong and has the perfect character for the storyline. I found the pace to be steady and the ongoing dialogue provided enough interest making the reader wanting more.
The book also reminded me of the Disney Cartoon “Mulan” where she too dressed up as a man in order to fight in the war, taking her ill father’s place. The concept was sweet yet, it brought along many issues that women face due to their sex and things that are expected from them.
I recommend this book to people that enjoy women fiction and romance.

I of the Hurricane: Eating Up a Storm by Kali (Book Review #416)
The book is suitable for people that are dog lovers and enjoy reading stories that revolve around this loving animal. I particularly enjoyed Hurricane’s personality and found the story to be humorous. The way she is brought home to a household full of other animals was sweet, and the interactions between the animals were enjoyable to read.
I found the literature to be in good standing, and the story was easy to follow. I believe the tale was created in focus revolving around the love for animals and the fact that its narrative was one, made all the difference.
I recommend this book to animal lovers and people that like to read stories about them.
