Once Upon a Stolen Time by Samreen Ashan

Good day everyone! This week I have read a book called Once Upon a Stolen time. This is a super special book because it comes out TOMORROW! That's right, you don't have to do the crazy wait because you only have one sleep before this amazing book comes out.
In a combination of modern day and ancient times we are able to witness the coming together of two people that were literally meant for each other across time and space. But a little warning for the younger audience that this book is not completely appropriate.
With that out of the way let me tell you a bit about it!

 Myra is a blogger who does reviews and information about popular castles across Europe. There has always been one castle she has always wanted to go to but it has been closed off to all people for almost 200 years. There is rumour of a curse lying on it.
Now Myra might have a chance to live her dream when he parents try to force her to marry the boy next door. Myra only just met the man, who turns out to be gay but hasn't told his parents, but the two quickly become friends and he makes her an offer.
Despite being rich he develops games and wants Myra to model for his next character. The bonus to this is that they will be filming the scenes for the game inside of the famous and sealed off castle. Myra agrees of course, excited to finally live her dream!
Meanwhile, centuries in the past, Edward is the prince living in the cursed castle. His father, a cruel and abusive man, is about to force him to choose a bride at his coming party. Edward tries his best not to become like his father but can feel reality slipping as he lives eternity alone.
In his dreams he sees a girl who he knows is meant for him. But for all his trying he has never been able to find her.
Will his dream girl finally step out of the world of the future to find him in a world of the past? When she does nothing will be as they expected.

 A great book with a great writing style. I love the way the characters interact and the resistance they have to obeying their parents wishes. 
Certainly worth a read if you get the chance!
Don't forget people, it comes out tomorrow so you can be first in line to get your own copy!
I would rate this book at a 4 out of 5 star rating!
Have a great day everyone and happy reading.

Kings or Pawns By J. J. Sherwood

Hey everyone I hope you are all having a good Monday. This week I was lucky enough to be sent a copy of this book to read. It's about the size of an average book, just about 400 pages online but it is by no means a quick read. Like Game of Thrones or Lord of the Rings there is a lot of the lore and different species to learn about. Along with that there is also the add on of other worlds with even more people. My first impressions of the book were that it was a little hard to get into. The cover of the book reminds me of Dungeons and Dragons, which I am a big fan. But as a player I know that there can be a lot to do before getting into the good parts of the story so I sort of felt that the book would be a little like that. I wouldn't say that feeling was far off. But before I get into that let me tell you a bit about the book: In the world there are only two real players: King and Pawns. If you are not a King... well, you know what you are. Even if you are a highly respe

Good Monday everyone. I hope you all have a great weekend. I have so many books on the go that it is hard to keep up with them all and my school work. But still I push on. A couple weeks ago I was fortunate enough to be sent an advanced copy of this book to read. Just the other day the book was officially published so my review will give you all a chance to get the book. I will provide the links to the sites at the bottom of the post. The book itself is a little different than what I normally do. But I love experimenting and reading books that suit all different audiences. This book is a Fantasy book, set in a magical world. Let me tell you a bit more about it. Joshua has lived his life in his village with his mother after his father died many years ago. For years he has had dreams of his father suffering leading him to believe that he is still alive. Now he thinks it is his time to go looking for him. The timing couldn't be better as he and his friend Andrew come acro

By the Hands of Men: The Old World by Roy M. Griffs

Hey everyone, I'm posting a little late today because... well, I don't actually have an excuse. I was eating McDonalds and then found a funny video online and well... I'm doing it now do there is no reason to go on. A couple weeks ago I received this book to read from the very generous author. It is a Historical Fiction set in World War One from the point of view of a nurse working near the front lines. I love stories from War because they are part of our history and I think it's important to know more about it. This book was also great for me because we had just gotten to the part about World War One in my European History class (both of the ones I am taking). But let me tell you a bit about the story: Charlotte is a Russian nurse who has been working on the front lines since close to the beginning of the war. Her and her friend from America have been working hard and have learned many things while treating the wounded. For a couple of months Charlotte is moved
