The BookViral Review:
Heartfelt and intimate David Gauthier’s diarised style autobiography proves an interesting release in the memoir and autobiography genre.
It’s a relatively quick read written with a refreshing degree of candour and whilst his words may mean different things to different people his reflections on life, love and the choices we make will resonate with many of his readers leading them to reflect on the relationships we build and those relationships we hold most dear.
It might be written in unpretentious and simple prose but that doesn’t detract from Gauthier’s reflections. From the abuse of his sister to the loves of his life, community and culture he shares his memories without grandstanding and no contrived attempt at drama.
At times it can prove a harrowing read but kindness connects and enriches our lives and this is something Gauthier is acutely aware of. His honesty is refreshingly uplifting and it’s clear from the start that despite the brevity of his prose an inquisitive and probing mind is at work as he recounts pivotal events in his life.
Love doesn’t discriminate and by sharing his relationship experiences Gauthier also reflects on the pain of breakups and the lingering impact they have on our emotional well-being and sometimes our ability to trust the sincerity of others.
A candid read that peels back the veneer on Gauthier’s life Kanata Waltz may appeal to readers wanting to stray from the path of celebrity tell-alls in favour of something more grounded and honest.
Exploring multiple dimensions has become a popular theme in science fiction and the superhero universe but it takes something special to really stand out and Bolton has this covered with Folder proving a concept with endless possibilities.
Kathleen. W . Franks has managed to capture; the kind that transports its young reader into the realms of their own imagination, complete with secret tunnels, magical creatures and a good old baddie or two!
Right from the off the mystery begins as Franks firmly hooks her readers with strong relatable characters and a gripping plot, with the shape of the novel growing and shifting naturally from her protagonist’s very first experience at his new home.
Go back not so many years and an author was just that-an author…. who wrote, and at the most maybe edited their own work. How different things are today!
Have you ever come home to a hot bath strewn with rose petals and filled with bubbles, in a bathroom bedecked with scented candles and an ice cold glass of champagne fizzing invitingly on the side. If not you might be thinking poor me but you might want to think again!
Heroes come and go. That’s certainly true of the fictional variety where very few linger in the mind beyond the last page of a novel. So what makes the perfect fictional hero?
Is anything ever again like your ‘first love’? The trembling hands, the beating heart, the breathless anticipation-in short, the culmination of all you ever saw and heard and felt about love?
