#NetGalley #BookReview Death of an Eye by Dana Stabenow #HistoricalFiction #Mystery Release date: December 6th, 2018 🌟🌟🌟🌟 I received a complimentary ARC copy of Death of an Eye by Dana Stabenow from NetGalley and Head of Zeus Publishing in order to read and give an honest review. …an original, quick and entertaining read which I enjoyed… Fans of Dana Stabenow’s Kate Shugak’s series set in Alaska will be surprised by her new series Eye of Isis. In her first instalment in this series Death of an Eye seems to be a more cosy mystery than historical fiction. Not quite as gritty as her Shugak series but still quite enjoyable. Set in 47 BCE. A pregnant Cleopatra is the ruler of Alexandria when her trusted spy or “Queen’s Eye”, Khemit, is murdered while secretly investigating the theft of a fresh mint of royal coins. With Julius Caesar away, Cleopatra is vulnerable and needs someone she trusts to help her so she calls upon her most trusted childhood friend Tetisheri (Sheri ) to help her get to the bottom of it. Although a merchant, Sheri has left a horrible marriage and become a partner in her Uncle Neb’s importing business. Being well educated, having the ability to speak many languages and having connections allow Shari to obtain the information she requires without seeming suspicious. One of the Cleopatra’s trusted guards, Apollodorus, sets out to help Sheri as she navigates a murder investigation rife with politics, sociopaths and danger. Sheri becomes a target for Cleopatra’s power hungry and wicked brother Ptolemy, Roman diplomats not pleased with women in power, bloodthirsty pirates and her abusive ex-husband, Hunifer all trying to thwart her every move.

#NetGalley #BookReview Once Upon a River A Novel by Diane Setterfield #HistoricalFiction #Mystery ONCE UPON A RIVER A NOVEL BY DIANE SETTERFIELD RELEASE DATE: DECEMBER 4TH, 2018 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I received a complimentary ARC copy of Once Upon a River: A Novel by Diane Setterfield from NetGalley and Atria Books in order to read and give an honest review. …masterfully written and engaging, character-driven story… A fairytale for adults, “Once Upon A River” by Diane Setterfield captivates you with her unique brand of atmospheric, character-driven storytelling. Hard to categorize, Once Upon a River is a mix of folklore and historical mystery in which Setterfield manages to craft several heart-wrenching tales of death, deceit, and heartbreak. The story begins at The Swan Inn on the Thames when an injured man stumbles in carrying what everyone believes is a dead child. When a nurse and healer, Rita, is examining the child, she finds that although she had no pulse earlier, she suddenly comes back to life. The child does not speak and no one knows who she is although there are missing children, long missing and presumed dead that have not been seen for years. Three families arrive at the swan with hopes that this child might be their lost baby. Read more...www.BelindaWitzenhausen.com

#NetGalley #BookReview Body Mindful Yoga by Robert Butera & Jennifer Kreatsoulas #Books #Health #Yoga #BodyImage Body Mindful Yoga; Create a Powerful and Affirming Relationship with Your Body by Robert Butera & Jennifer Kreatsoulas Release date: November 8th, 2018 🌟🌟🌟🌟 I received a complimentary ARC copy of Body Mindful Yoga Create a Powerful and Affirming Relationship with Your Body by Robert Butera & Jennifer Kreatsoulas from NetGalley and Llewellyn Worldwide in order to read and give an honest review. Body Mindful Yoga by Robert Butera and Jennifer Kreatsoulas isn’t a book of yoga poses, although there is a section that walks you through some, this is so much more. This is a book that promotes deep thought and self-introspection to help you work through what holds you back and learn that what we say to ourselves matters more than what anyone else says. Body Mindful Yoga helps you uncover the power of words in general, everything can add to our internal dialogue from what we read, hear and even marketing slogans, changing what we tell ourselves about our own bodies. With the use of clever and well-designed exercises in each section, Body Mindful Yoga promotes journaling to uncover your deepest negative thoughts and helps us work through changing our harmful often overwhelmingly negative internal dialogue. The authors outline Butera’s method which involves four processes; Listen, Learn, Love, and Live. Each section offers hands-on exercises and practices designed to make the most of each lesson. Perfect for those who are both experienced or novice develop a meaningful yoga practice which goes deeper and is a much more holistic approach than just going through asanas.

It's with sad hearts we say goodbye to my Dad, Patrick McGrath who passed peacefully this afternoon. Mom, Mike and I would like to thank those who showed so much love and support during his illness and helped us through our recent dark days. A memorial service will be held out of province TBA. One thing that I always hear about my Dad are the fun, quirky stories about adventures, pranks and fun times he shared with friends and family. Please post one of your fondest memories of my Dad in the comments below, it will be the best way to honour him.
