Revie of AGING BACKWARDS




AGING BACKWARDS

 Miranda Esmonde-White

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Stretching 30 minutes daily is the key to Esmonde-White's guide to looking ten years younger. She explains how the body's muscles function and why moving all of them is essential to longevity.

Explaining the building blocks of life, the author educates the reader on why the body's bones and vital abilities are weakened by not moving each muscle. This non-function will decrease one's life.

Following the stretching exercises, which are explained and pictured at the end of the book, the reader can start this program immediately. The reader will start working out.

Review of HELLO AGAIN




HELLO AGAIN

In the Garden, Book 1

HEATHER TULLIS

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

To regain a lover you broke up with is the jest of HELLO AGAIN. Ten years earlier, Reese had left Piper hanging, she not knowing why he had forsaken her love.

Piper has a community garden project she and her cohorts want for their neighborhood. The land is owned by the Stone Corporation, where Reece Stone was the current president after his father's death.

When Piper brings the project to his office, sparks of familiarity commence for Reece. Piper goes into battle mode, which leads to an unlikely romance and turbulent social events. The games begin.

At the end of this story, the community has a garden and wrapped up romantically. Perfectly written romance novel with few gaps but with characters that will bring the reader to Book 2.

Review of THE CASE FOR TRUMP




THE CASE FOR TRUMP

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 


The book THE CASE FOR TRUMP is the fourth I have read by the historical intellectual Davis Hanson; see the list below. I am a non-aligned voter who believes the present two-party works as one party. I always seek answers as to why.

Trump came into the picture 2016, and many newsworthy conflicts became the norm. VDH takes the reader through those conflicts - politically and personally charged.

You may disagree with VDH as to Trumps, Never-Trumpers, Democrats, and Republicans' motives pro and con, but you will find VDH's historical data complete. His narrative of the rollercoaster Trump journey into the White House up to November 1, 2019, is profoundly contra to what the Washington elite and political profundity got the USA into over the last twenty years.

'The (USA) status quo certainly was neither stable nor sustainable,' Davis Hanson explaining the US conflicts before Trump's arrival. I believe that the US Citizen's needs came second to the globalists - wealth and political needs of the military and industrial complex.

THE CASE FOR TRUMP is a must-read for those with an Inquisitive Mind.

Review of Pretty Little Fliers




Pretty Little Fliers

Pet Psychic Magical Mysteries

ERIN JOHNSON

Review by Author Roy Murry



Jolene is a pet psychic - not really, but she can talk to the animals. Peter is a hunk of a police officer with a magic wand and has a partner named Daisy, a dog who can tell if a perp is telling the truth. What a setup for a fun series!

The murder is simple: a woman falls out of a building. The investigation by the trio is hilarious, with a sarcastic undertone and highlighted by spells and caramels.

This novel is a fun fantasy a young adult or an old fart like myself will enjoy. The colorful characters are a sound basis for generating more comedic adventurous crime-solving.

The storyline is incredibly developed and well worth the dime.

Review of BENT




BENT: A Love's Complicated Novel

HOLLIS WYNN

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

Carrigan has been in a mental funk for years because of her relationship with her mother, whom she has cared for from a young age. Believing in herself was difficult until she moved from her hometown to Chicago when her mother died.

Little by little, Carrigan's self-confidence grows with the help of Whit, a man she meets on the train and a friend at her new job. Her love for Whit increases and becomes complicated because of his life's events in motion.

How the novel ends will surprise the reader. For a first novel, Ms. Wynn hits all the buttons - good characters, emotional evaluation, excellent conversations, and tear-jerking situations of a young single living alone in the big city.

This novel is well worth the dime.

Review of SAILOR'S CHOICE


SAILOR'S CHOICE - A Connie Barrera Thriller

 

CLR DOUGHTERY

 

Review by Author Roy Murry

 

This novel is the twelfth in the series. I have read four of CLR's novels, starting with LOVE FOR SAIL in 2018, which you should also do.

   However, SAILOR'S CHOICE stands on its own. Connie and her husband take on a contracted couple to sail to a Caribbean Island on their sailing yacht DIAMANTISTA II. Karen and Mike, researchers, go ashore to investigate a volcano and do not return.

Connie and Paul report the people as missing to the island's police - the adventure begins. This thriller's intriguing twists and turns lead to murder, kidnapping, and corporate espionage.

With a supporting cast of characters that Connie and Paul have acquired over their careers, her sailing in the Caribbean, and he a Miami homicide Captain, the web closes in on the criminals. How they accomplish this feat is fascinating, as are all of Charles Dougherty's novels. In the end, you will be happy you read the adventure.

I will read another of his novels soon because of the adventure of reading about the Caribbean, where I lived for twenty-eight years in the Hospitality Industry - Dominican Republic to Margarita, Venezuela.
