The BookViral Review:
A carefully observed and perceptive study of people following their dreams in the only way they know how Resolutions: A Family In Stories proves a genuine treasure of a read with Knox treading close to the stuff of life itself. To the way in which the majority of us struggle and make do, compromise some of our dreams and insist on the others.
Far too many authors substitute plot for the fascinations of life but Knox isn’t one of those. Here she gets a sublime balance, capturing the smallest details and giving us such a strong sense of her characters that each of her ‘stories’ are alive with possibility. Through Jasmine and Molly May, in particular, we come to realize that people – when they change, do so in small almost imperceptible ways and that what we see is often misconstrued.
Some of the best novels are like this. They show their characters in everyday life, stripped of a saccharin coating, and as we come to know them we maybe find out something about ourselves. “I want you both to read The Power of Personal Leadership—a great book!” says Jasmine, “I just finished it, and it lays out the whole truth of our existence. It says that if you do not act on the ideas you have, you might as well not have them at all.” And for many readers, this will be the crux of Knox’s story.
Emotionally powerful, with scenes that weep with pain Knox’s affection for her characters shines through to deliver an exceptional read and Resolutions: A Family In Stories is recommended without reservation.
Both scientific and philosophical, ‘Self Actualisation in the Age of Crisis’ really is a deep-dive into the fabric of humanity and how woefully it has managed itself but offers a silver lining if we should be brave enough to listen and change.
Donna McCart Welser creates a lasting and poignant memoir of her husband, Ray (Rue), in her first book, ‘Rue’s Butterfly’. Capturing the essence of a thoughtful, loving man with a wicked sense of humour and timing, and the impregnable relationship they shared, she leads her reader through a journey of happiness and pain, of satisfaction and loss, and how to move on whilst retaining and honouring the memory of another.
Authors like Robin Cook, Michael Crichton and Tess Gerritsen have made a major contribution to our continued fascination with medical thrillers.
When Huffpost Editor-in-chief Jimmy Leach announced the closure of its blogging platform he said that “publishing thousands of blogs has been a distraction from the delivery of impactful, targeted investigations, explainers, breaking news and lifestyle and entertainment journalism.”
Near Death Experience’s or NDEs as they are more commonly called are not a new phenomenon; they’ve been reported throughout history and yet few subjects create so much division.
Never before has the voice of social commentary in literature sung higher. Freedom of speech has brought with it a cacophony of loudly spoken, written and sometimes harshly promoted opinion and judgement.
