This is a great story for kids to read! It normalizes struggles that people who are adopted go through and lets you know that strong feelings are normal! We need more books like this where people can see themselves and acknowledge that everyone has a different life story but we can all help to make the best of the situation we are handed. There are things both in our control and out of control that can affect the way we react and being able to see that represented in a book is very therapeutic. I would love to read more stories by this author!

When Oliver gets in trouble he goes to his room upset. In his room he starts thinking about what life would be like if he was still living with his biological parents instead of being adopted. He ponders what it would be like to have a different family and how much that would change his life. Would he have brothers and sisters? Would he get in trouble like he did now? Would he live with one parent or both parents? So many questions and different possibilities compared to his life now.
This is an amazing book about different kinds of families and the thoughts that go through a child’s imagination. This book would be wonderful for anyone dealing with adoption. I also think any kid who gets in trouble would also enjoy this book, because they can see that even if they get in trouble and dream they were somewhere else in some other family, that in the end their family loves them no matter what. It is a really great and powerful message!

5 Stars Oliver, A Story of Adoption by Lois Wickstrom
Oliver, A Story of Adoption is a children’s book about adoption and we absolutely loved reading it. This is for ages 3 to 9 but honestly I think any age would enjoy it. There’s a great message to be learned from this book. I have three niece’s and nephews that my brother and sister in law adopted and I love them just the same if not more then if they were blood related. They are now old enough to seek out their real mom if they choose. My four year old learned from this and asked lots of questions. I love Oliver and my son did to. This is a short book and I highly recommend reading this cute book and we look forward to reading more from this Author.

What a grand story for children of all ages. Children who are adopted as well as those not. This story shows Oliver’s train of thought when he was angry. Not at the tree he climbed, but at the parents who care for him. Sometimes books explain things better than the adults who love us. This is one of those. The author really looked at adoption from a child’s eyes. The story is well written as well as the illustrations that help tell the story. This is a must have in your library and on your child’s shelf of books. This author has many help books that open the eyes of our children. She is definitely a must have in my library. I hope it is yours too. Review@cinful

This is not the first book that I have read by this talented author, and it will not be the last one! I have found myself becoming immersed in the wonderful world of children’s books. This was a very kindhearted kid friendly story that anyone at any age can read. This is a book that I can see myself reading with my future children or even with my friend’s children now! If you are looking for your next children’s book to read look no further as this author always writes books that are relatable and lighthearted for everyone to enjoy.

This was an interesting take on a story of adoption. The illustrations were cute and the story was easy to read. There were elements of the story that normalized childhood imagination and the need we all have to belong. It was an easy read and I think would generally be enjoyed by children and could be relatable. I love the author trying to tackle the topic of adoption and addressing the reality how children of adoption may wonder about their biological parents.

This is short and sweet. Perfect for a child. Oliver gets in trouble for playing not safely. So he gets disciplined. While he is enduring his punishment he starts contemplating about his birth parents. Then he understands he’s wanted and loved from his adopted parents.

I enjoyed reading this book. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed how they used their writing skills to pull you into the story. A story where they used attention to details to make the story realistic. I found this book to be fast paced and engaging. This is a hard to put down story where the characters are relatable and bring the story to life. A story that is full of things going on but the author did a great job of transitioning from one to the other. A story where nightmares have to be faced in order to fix relationships. I really enjoyed reading this book. You don’t want to miss what happens in this story. I highly recommend this book.

This is a good story. I love stories with a happy ending. When the main couple can ride off into the sunset after defeating whatever demons they needed to. That’s my usual happily ever after. Grace is the main character in this story and even though the ending is a little different than my usual, Grace does eventually ride off into the sunset.
Dealing with your past and even your current demons is a tough thing to do. Finding a safe outlet for your anger, fear and even confusion, is healthy. Grace was able to find that outlet in the underground fighting ring where her father use to fight. The ring is where Grace finds peace even though it went against what she thought her parents wanted for her. Grace finds it hard to live up to some self-perceived expectations.
This story was my first by this author and I am glad there is going to be more. I want to know what happens to the other people in Grace’s life. Recommend this story.

This author was amazing and told a hell of a story. Grace proved to be a strong and resilient woman who’s success was well earned. She loved her family, loved MMA, and she proved she could conquer the world. She did so much to overcome the way she grew up and her mom and sister were very much her world, and when she got her MMA trainers in her life they become family as well. This is a story for everyone to read and relate to about following dreams and becoming the best they can be.

Such a captivating tale. The characters and plot are so well developed and you won’t find plot holes in this story. This is a keep you on the edge of your seat, death grip on the book, can’t put it down until it’s over type of book. It’s not really action based but more reflective and pensive. I really enjoyed how well the emotions were portrayed in this story. Every ounce of guilt, futility, joy, and development of self really made this book what it is. I am interested to see what book two will hold.

Bake Off is the second book in the Bake Believe series. It is a fun story of a young girl coming into her own, really starting to discover herself, and her family in a whole new way. She doesn’t only have normal teen issues to deal with, like school, and boys. She has a special gift that she doesn’t understand and is having trouble getting a handle on it. In this book, she takes a trip to visit her family in Arizona, hoping to learn more about her gift and her family. She wants to use her gift for good but she has to understand it first. Once again the author has done an amazing job pulling you into the pages of the book. They don’t just tell you how the character feels, they bring it to life so that you can imagine the feeling as if it is happening to you. The story is light and funny and the main character learns some life lessons along the way. There is just enough mystery to without getting too complicated, making this book perfect for anyone from the age of 10 and up. This book is just very well written. I can’t wait for the next book in the series and I would definitely recommend.

Bake Believe is a story of a young girl who is a little boy crazy and determined to enjoy every second of life. Through a happy accident she comes to find that she has a special ability when she bakes. Not special like her food tastes good, special like magical! This is a fantastic story for ages from middle school to adult. Not only is the story cute and funny, but the artist has the gift of making you feel like you are part of the story, experiencing it right along with the character. This book should carry a warning though! Each chapter is followed by a delicious recipe that you will want to try. I would recommend this book to anyone ages 10 and up! Looking forward to reading the rest if the series

This story follows Bree and is 354 pages in length. Bree’s heart has been broken one too many times. Now she has developed a “no dating jocks” rule along with a slew of other rules she has made up to avoid heart break again. She meets Nate. Although he is hot, he fits the description of exactly what she needs to avoid. Then she meets Steven. He seems to be exactly what she is looking for. She stays friends with Nate while she dates other guys, only to find herself seeing Nate for the someone she is actually looking for. This poor girl had been through the wringer with guys, so it is easy to see why she has her rules, but ultimately, her rules kept her from Nate.

5 stars from start to finish and I would give it more if I could. I absolutely love the little town of Parker Lake and all its wonderful, very colourful characters. I was so happy to be able to read another story in this amazing series but also for Karen and her story to be told. I was hooked from page one until the very last word. This fantastic author creates such a vivid reading experience that you feel a true part of this wonderful town and you simply can’t put the book down until you see what happens next. As book 4, it tells the story of Karen and Brody and while they have been either featured a little or mentioned in previous books your reading experience will not be tarnished in any way if you haven’t read the previous books. I do HIGHLY recommend reading the previous books however because they are so awesome you really don’t want to miss out on them.

This is the second book in the Forerunner Series. I do definately recommend reading these books in order so you get a full understanding of the story and the characters involved. I have read the first book and was so excited to get this book to see where the author takes us. This story is all about change and how peoples lives are affected in different ways by the same circumstances. I love that this story is a mixture of history and mythology. It allows us an insight into how the world used to be.
The war is brewing again and this time there will be life’s lost that will change the families lives from the oldest to the youngest. We are also still travelling with Karl and Thorfinn. They are travelling on a longboat to protect the people the vowed to protect. However Karl is getting suspicious about his nephew and his strange behaviour. Thorfinn is still struggling to come to terms with being able to walk between worlds and what that actually means for him and the things he sees.
This story is so captivating and is full of twists and turns that will keep a reader gripped. It is a story of change and betrayal where no one knows who to trust and the consequences of trusting the wrong person could mean life or death

This book was just as stunningly fabulous as the first book! I adore the illustration of the world and the characters too. The alternating points of view are such an engaging way to tell the story, seeing different parts and how they tie together. I like seeing how the characters interact and how they relate to each other, even as they come from different ways of life and different experiences. Also I enjoy the family ties aspects, how family is important to each character and the way that relationship guides actions. This truly is an amazing book within this series and I look forward to reading more!

The Vardoger Boy is the second book in the Forerunner series and follows on from Thorfinn & the Witches Curse. I recommend reading that first to help you understand the characters better. Viking lore with fantasy paranormal elements what more could you ask for.
It is an action-packed adventure, with struggles and betrayal, emotions and romance rounding out Jay’s weaving fantastical historical fiction that is full of Norse mythology.
It is set in Midgard and the Realm Between. With plenty of strong characters, a great battle and brutality, danger and excitement and a blood feud. Fighting for hearth and family

Captivating story once again by a truly gifted author! Finn’s adventure from the first series continues in this gripping adventure! This time he is not alone! The book was great visually once again and brought a lot to the table! I loved every moment of this adventure and wait in anticipation for more!
I loved this one for many reasons. Yes, Finn is the protagonist, and he seems to find his footing in this one along side his father of the true meaning what it is to be a Varadoger. I found the journey to that for Finn was hard at times, but his spirit never allowed him to give up, not even for a second! I more less loved the trials he faced through out to get to where he was by the time the book concluded. I also loved how all of Finn’s family had an important role in this novel! I am not speaking just of his father, but his siblings as well as his mother. They all played a role in this story. There was a lot happening at times but was very easy to follow and comprehend. I loved the author’s way of molding this story together and how things came to light, and what may come in future adaptations to the series! Loved it!
Again, amazing installment to the series! I think I may have even loved this installment more than the previous! I can not wait for the next adventure for Finn and his family to be able to be read by myself. I highly recommend this book, for sure a must read! It’s a fun journey that should be experienced!

The third book in the Red Cage series but in my opinion, it can be read as a standalone. This was a fantastic character-driven story following London and True. They had a fling a year ago and are now working together at the Red Cage are they destined to be together? This was a steamy romance that I easily devoured – highly recommended!

This was an incredible read! I loved reading this one so much. It was full of humor, Romance, witty banter, and some action. I was completely enthralled with this book and did not want to put it down. This is the third installment of a series, and I have not read the previous books in this series but I didn’t feel like I was missing anything. This felt like a complete standalone to me, which is one reason why I decided to read this one. Kudos to the author though, this book was completely outstanding to me!

I am just jumping into this series but I am going to catch up! I love the banter, the humor, the steam, the characters, and everything.
London “Lonny” Bridge is a badass in her own right. She is a detective trained by the best in the world. Only she has a string of bad luck including a serial killer that became obsessed with her while London was hunting him. Shortly after the tragic loss of her partner, London was hit with the devastating loss of her father. During her grieving, Lonny had a week-long fling with a man she has never forgotten.
Trueman Garza can’t stay focused on any one thing for too long thanks to his ADHD. It has never bothered him before until he met her. Now that she has suddenly popped up back into his life, all he can do is focus on her. London is different from every other woman in his life. Is True willing to settle down with just one woman? Is London even willing to be that woman?
This book was nearly un-put-downable. I got so lost in the story. It is amazing!!

Omg! Is it normal to have a crush on a fictional character in a book??? I think I might…. on True Garza. The author wrote his character beautifully. London is a badass that I’d like to befriend. This story got me all kinds of hot and bothered reading it. If you’re looking for a story to take your breath away this is your book. I need to get my hands on the other books in this series ASAP!

I definitely loved this book and everything about it. I loved how Levi was rejected multiple times by the same woman. That causes a spiral for him and he is forced to go work at his fathers firm again. Then he realizes his job there is to assist the one woman who doesn’t fall for his charms…..Miss Kindle James. I absolutely love her character in the book. She’s strong, smart, beautiful and doesn’t take any garbage. Unfortunately for Levi, he can’t seem to get away from the one girl that called him Daddy and thinks she’s gods gift to men. She’s all about herself and when he finally has had enough of her he tries to get rid of her by not being so nice. Levi has never been friends with a female and working side by side with Kindle, they grow a sort of friendship which he sees a plus for him. Once she is comfortable, maybe he can turn on the charm and win her over. Let’s not forget about Kindle’s roomie…..Will she be the reason Kindle walks away from Levi for good or will there be a happy ending? Such a great read from beginning to end. Loved it!!

Levi seems to have it all. Money, wild partying, a different girl every night… but really he’s covering up heartbreak. one night while out partying he sees a goddess and cant get her out of his mind.

Right from the start, the story drew me in. Levi is a party boy that has a lot more going on in his head and heart than meets the eye. His antics at the start are entertaining to witness along side him. It also helps that the story is written in second person and even has moments where the MC engages with the reader to make you feel like you are being told a story from a friend. Once Levi starts putting an effort into putting his life on track, his world view totally changes, and he is put in a position where he is trying to reach a future, and trying not to let his past hinder him. The romance is quite sweet as well. Initially unrequited feelings that slowly start to turn into more. Also, Kindle is such an awesome and powerful female MC. The story is short, but didn’t leave me wanting. The romance seems quick, but was still satisfying. In general, this is a quick, fun, and spicy read that will be entertaining until the very end. This is book five in the series, and admittedly I did not read the others, but I had no trouble following along with the story. I do have the sense that there are many background stories with side characters that I am missing information on, so I definitely intend to go back and read the other books.
