NEW REVIEW: Shawneda Marks - My True Essence

Shawneda Marks - 
My True Essence - 
Available Now! - 
3.5 out of 5 books - 


My True Essence tells a poignant story of how breast cancer can change a person's life in a blink of an eye. We are introduced to the characters of Danielle, Janessa, and Rebecca, who are all dealing with the aftermath of a breast cancer diagnosis. Through faith, these women are determined to face the future with strength & courage.

The topic of breast cancer hits home for me. I have known a few beautiful people that have died from this terrible disease. Just because breast cancer doesn't run in your family doesn't mean you are immune to it.

The only problem I had with this book was that I didn't feel connected to the characters as much as I would have liked to. There were some parts of the book that seemed to drag on until finally getting to the point. I do applaud the author for tackling this important subject.  Overall, My True Essence is a good read.

New Review : In the Face of the Sun : Denny S. Bryce

  5 out of 5 books I fell in love with Denny S. Bryce’s writing with her first book, Wild Women and the Blues. I absolutely love historical fiction, so I was eager to read In the Face of the Sun. Ba-byyyy, it did not disappoint! In the Face of the Sun is a dual timeline novel, switching between Los Angeles (Daisy - 1928) and Chicago (Frankie - 1968). Daisy's had a hard life, and it shows, as her personality completely changes between the timelines. Back in 1928, she was a hardworking, honest person that cared about her family and friends. In 1968, she’s drinking, smoking, and doing the absolute most, a complete opposite of sweet innocent Daisy. Frankie’s life isn’t peaches and cream, she’s pregnant and escaping her abusive husband. Her and her aunt Daisy pick up and head for L.A., for the adventure of a lifetime. You’ve got to read this book, I couldn’t put it down. I loved that there are history lessons interwoven in the pages, you’re reading and also learning at the same time. De...
