Ela Green and the Kingdom of Abud by Sylvia Greif
4.0
4,5 stars
In this book, we go on a journey with the little Ela Green that discovers some secrets after finding a bracelet from her grandmother. I liked how the author created a fantasy in our present days, but at the same time used some old beliefs, the characters are catching and made me cheer for them every second! Some mysterious characters in this first book are well constructed, creating a villain aura even when we are not sure if they are villains or not.
It was a great and fun reading, and I hope to see Ela soon, discovering all mysteries of the world.

What a message this book has!
I like books for children because they always bring great lessons for life, with this one was no different. It's a short and lovely story about friendship, so I guess adults should also read it, cause sometimes we feel insecure due to the comparison to others.

Four Bittersweet Romances & A Four-Act Closet Drama by Lawrence G. Taylor

During this reading, we go through some different stories that are sad and real at the same time. I could feel the pain of some characters cause not everyone has a happy ending, laugh at coincidences we already saw in real life and hope they get what they want. It is a good collection of stories that more people need to know!
Falling for the Underdog by Casey Griffin

Enemies to lovers that flirt all the time with dogs missing? Yes, this book has this and much more. Addison's dream is at risk when some dogs disappear on her event. Felix is a very observing bartender that gets into this mess when he needs the reward money. Together they investigate some competition dogs owners and discover things they would want not to know. I enjoyed this reading since page 1!
Ark of the Apocalypse by Tobin Marks
4.0
When I first saw the cover I thought that would be something similar to or inspired by Game of Thrones, and to me was a bit. However, this book tells a story of the end of planet earth and a few humans that were saved by going to a new planet. The main character, Nadya, has had visions related to dragons, ice, and fire since she was a kid. Even though she always got confused by it, when she gets into Magellan II, everything makes sense.
The beginning was a bit slow but the rest of the book was amazing. I enjoyed it a lot!
