The Talking Book

My love for this one snuck up on me. While I've heard good things about Zakiya's work, this is the first book of hers that I've read - and I wasn't convinced that I was loving it at the start. It's a story of love and karma set in the heart of Manhattan. That quietly gave way to an emotional, laidback story that got lighter and sweeter as it went. It's an emotional - potentially engaging - story that's subtle yet strong, and it 100% won me over by the end. It's an amazing story of our female protagonist Nera, who is unfulfilled in her marriage by her narcissistic husband, Gedeon. Gedeon is only a husband according to the courts. No one would anyone consider him for the actual label of husband. His disregard for Nera's basic needs and emotional abuse leads her into the arms of Cosmo. That blurb is just the tip of the iceberg; this is a HEAVY and emotional read for much of the story. There's also plenty of triggering content, including loss of a loved one, addiction, mental emotional abuse, trauma , narcissism - and more. Essentially, this follows Nera's marriage is childless and Gedeon wants it that way, unfortunately for Nera. Nera soon hears the call of Nature in Cosmo's arms, falls in love, and soon he is the father of her child. This quiet, angsty and emotional read. I loved the character development ,which strengthened with every page. The overarching theme is definitely one of HOPE. Have a little patience with this story, and you'll be rewarding with one fulfilling read. Zakiya dazzles with this deeply felt emotional roller coaster…with its uncommon depth, Zakiya’s story will elicit tears in some places, Emotions in others. A stellar cast…Readers will be hooked. Romance readers who crave drama, trauma, and tears flushed with every humanly emotions will devour this book. Highly Recommended!

That rarest of beasts: the perfect inspiring non-fiction. This extraordinary novel set my blood fizzing―I quite literally couldn't put it down. I told myself I'd just dip in; eleven hours later―it's now 5:47 a.m.―I've finished it, absolutely dazzled. Hypnotic, rattling.... Time collapses as, minute by minute, krakauer rivetingly and movingly chronicles what ensued, much of which is near ecstasy to read.... A brilliantly told storyline that won't go begging when the year's literary honors are doled out

It is very rare for a book to have its characters live beyond the pages, and at the same time let it transcend its own genre into something else. Queen of the heavens does that, and more. Five Stars read for me. One of the best books I have read this month! Highly recommend it! I only leave positive feedback and reviews when I love the book. Feel free to ask anything regarding this book. A must read for sure. I'd recommend this book to everyone who would like to read a good Literature. The book is written in a very interesting way. A must read for sure

Get ready for a good read ! Book is very well written so , it's difficult to stop reading. Amazing use of vast vocabulary like an experienced professional writer even though this is a debut novel of Che Geofroy. It's a type of book for which you stay way too late on a work night trying to finish it because it makes your made up word Un-put-down-able seem insufficient. I kept my review spoiler free because I think it's more fun and informative to know what's inside the package yourself. Must Read!

Omara Williams' debut novel "The Space Traveller's Lover" successfully merges the typically disparate genres of romance and science fiction. While science fiction is known for its grand ideas, Williams tackles timely themes such as climate change while also exploring the timeless questions of the value of love, the essence of humanity, and the ethics of a superior force dominating the less powerful. The novel's intensity is derived from the emotional complexity and quandaries faced by the couple Erin and Rothwen, set against the backdrop of an Earth invasion story. What sets this novel apart is that the battle between Erin and Rothwen is not a simple one, but rather a nuanced exploration of the possibility of their future together and whether it necessitates the destruction of humanity's future. The novel questions whether humans are even worth saving, given their lack of stewardship of their own planet. The novel is set in a futuristic world, and the author has done an excellent job of creating a world that is both imaginative and believable. The characters are well-developed, and their emotions and motivations are explored in-depth, which makes them relatable to the readers. As a skilled and imaginative storyteller, Williams incorporates innovative world-building techniques and thought-provoking concepts into her work.

Less a compelling narrative than a rich stew of ironies and contradictions. Shiwani's eye for the ridiculous is as keen as ever. Her keen appreciation of contradiction enriches the book, and, if the integrity of her narrative is less than perfect, the integrity of her ideological convictions is absolute. Briskly paced and sumptuously written, the novel ponders questions of family relationships, modernity, and class, in ways both moving and revelatory. In her debut novel, Shiwani is more perceptive and bewitching.... Shiwani imaginatively dramatizes the wonders and tragedies of life and, by extension, the fragility of peace and elusiveness of justice, albeit with her own powerful blend of tenderness and wit. Shiwani's brilliant novel, is a story of joy and despair. Her characters face numerous choices that majestically illuminate the consequences of society and life as a whole offers to us as it collides with the modern world. Easy to read and deceptively deep; this is a good novel with much to recommend it.

I didn't thought this book will going to be this good. It was , as you might expect , entertaining , a total different piece of emotional rollercoaster from every aspect. It sets a very high bar for whatever he does that comes next. Must Read
