My Review

Faith is the path to renovation and reinvention of our spirit. It is the path of enlightenment. For a time like this, faith can hold humanity together for a greater good. Gear up for a time like this by Catherine Agada is a practical guide to find calm amidst the storm. The world is falling into a depression. Everything is in chaos. But the Lord has all answers. We all are seeking answers from the wrong sources. That’s why we didn’t find any fulfilling answers yet. It is the right time to hold tight to our faith. It is the source of our inner power. It is the source of light.

The author has affirmed this belief through this book. She has addressed this difficult issue rather beautifully. The book is written as a circle. It starts with addressing the root cause of our existence. Why we are here? What is our purpose? What is our goal? She connects the readers to God through the initial chapters of the book. After that, she lays out the master plan to survive this uncertain time. It is an actionable plan based on core moral values of life and humanity. These principles are often neglected by us because we are so busy with our greed. But for a time, that is resetting our lives, we have to fall back to our basic principles. The next step is finding out our strengths, dislikes, and weaknesses. This plan not only encourages to rejuvenate our personality but also gives a fresh perspective to survive this pandemic.

At the end of every chapter, there is a summary of the content. This is helpful for me to revise the core values of the book from time to time. Altogether it is an essential read to survive this pandemic era.

Review

Gypsy Flower by Diana Dawn is the fourth installment of the Whispering Willows series. I have been following the story from the very beginning and was eager to know what happens next, when I took this one to read. Princess snow embarks a journey to find her long-lost sister at any cost. The path was unknown. She had absolutely no clues about her sister’s whereabouts at first. But slowly everything clears. She finds clues on the way. But this quest is just the beginning. The entire world of Princess Snow took a turn through this journey. As the author is revealing more and more at times, the story is becoming more mysterious. Just like other installments, she ends the story at a cliff hanger. But I must say this ending has a hint of unpredictability more than other books. Making readers dying to know what happens next!

The relationship between Snow and Mitch also getting interesting here. The author has given much depth to Snow’s character through all these books. A gradual evolution of her character is evident from beginning to now. A maturity in character and relationship is expected from her as a protagonist and she is a perfect blend of all emotions. The author has taken much time to unravel the sacred bond between sisters in the middle. But she was careful to not lose the pace. She is not giving away many details. I think this adds up mystery here and there. Many of the characters in Willows are suspicious from the beginning. Here in this part too, their mysteries are growing chapter by chapter.

Apart from the third book, the author has given more importance to the life and people of Willows in this book. It was a heart-warming part to read. With the introduction of new characters, once again the lives of Willows were picking up their lost rhythm.

I read in a single stretch because just like other installments, the narration is impeccable. I’m eagerly waiting to read the next one!
