Latest Review: "The Bonding" by Imogen Keeper

Hi gali and thanks for the review.
I have seen that a lot, many grammatical erros, syntax errors or typos on the new books. Either the new authors cannot understand the need for a good editor or they have other priorities... Anyway, if there is a sample I always go through it first, so I won't be disappointed...

This does sounds like a nice sweet story. Thanks for the review! I have always taken clean editing in books for granted. Too bad not everyone has a good editor.

Hey gali. I love family stories. Love, heartache, familial troubles. These are all things most readers can relate to. With that in mind, I would read this book.

The book sounds really sweet even if it is a little bit predictable. The romance sounds almost a little too easy. It would seem there would be trust issues involved. I don't read that in your review.

Latest Review: Addressing Systemic Discrimination by Reframing the Problem by Dr. Frank L. Douglas

I believe everyone deserves second chances. When young, we make stupid and irrational decisions without total consideration of all aspects. But fortunately people grow and learn. Sounds like an exciting book. I love your review!
