THE FESTIVAL by Kirk Budhooram

Wow, that is all I could sum this up to about this book. This book made obeah seem harmless, still extremely dangerous and stupid, but compared to this book, yeah.

It all started when Karen Sookoo received a mysterious letter that got both herself and her house burned down.  Her sister Julie, not convinced that it was a robbery gone bad, enlist the help of an ex-cop to help her find her sister’s murderers and to finally get some closure.

A series of events, from various people’s lives connect together and makes Julie and her companions realize that what they are up against may be bigger than they can handle.


This book was written by a Trinidadian who can write a compelling story that has you wanting more including one of the most amazing car chase and escapes from certain death I ever read.  Also a love story I was not happy with; Julie chose the wrong man, seriously.

IT STARTED WITH A KISS by Marina Adair

Well well well! What do we have here with this story? Is it a love story, is it a trade or is it MURDER! I'm kidding, I'm kidding, there's no murder here. Avery Adams wants adventure. She wants to push herself outside the norm and experience life instead of just existing. This came about when she survived a kidney transplant that saved her life, but it's also a ticking time bomb that can explode at any time. With her resolve to experience life, Avery did the most logical thing and got a job as a guide in the local adventure lodge in her rustic Sierra Nevada Town. She was excited for her new job until reality slapped her in the face.  Instead of getting the training she needed in order to become a guide, she's stuck in the office, managing the business as best she can.
