Travel, Photography and Amazing stories of Resilience!

Revisado: 02-24-21

This book has amazing stories of Resilience from all over the world. I loved everything about this book. I felt as if I were with Ron every step of the way through each of his experiences as a travel photographer and photojournalist. The haunting stories from New York City on 911 when Ron lived there and his experience to Chernobyl and the aftermath, Cuba, India and Africa. Each place you learn about the culture and some of their history and about the people and their stories of Resilience as well as Ron’s own story of Resilience. This book is inspiring and a great reminder of how blessed we are in this country. It’s a reminder that we can all take part in making the world a better place no matter how big or small our contribution. This book came out at such a perfect time. If you like photography or are passionate about it you will enjoy this book as well. Ron gives great photography tips even a person like me who isn’t a professional can find very useful. You will love Ron’s storytelling in this easy to read and hard to put down book. Don’t wait and just read it or listen to this fascinating book. It does not disappoint! Take the trip with Ron around the world through his book Resilience!! It will touch you.

A Twisty Mystery

Revisado: 06-02-15

Enjoyed the twisty plot and the mystery in this book. The girl on the train Rachel is one hot mess with her drinking and her imaginary situations of what goes on in the homes she passes on the train. However the other characters her ex and his wife who were living in her old house were a mess too. I loved the 3 narrators as the story changed. I enjoyed the ride and the twists and ending.

Addictive

Revisado: 06-11-13

This book was addictive from the minute I started it. I just loved they mystery and intrigue in The Last Camellia. And when I thought I figured the mystery all out and the ending, Sarah Jio surprised me with something I wasn't expecting.

This was my first Sarah Jio novel and I think I've become addicted to not only this book but her as well. Now I am going to listen to all of her previous books.

Emotional Story

Revisado: 05-31-13

I loved following the friendship of these two girls through several decades. It really makes you feel like you know them. Such an emotional read a wonderful story of friendship, betrayal and forgiveness. Just have your tissues ready because I cried my eyes out toward the end. Can't wait to read Fly Away next.

Heartwarming

Revisado: 05-02-13

What a heartwarming story told about adoption, family, relationships and feelings. I enjoyed the different points of view. Orlagh Cassidy did a great job narrating this book. Once I got started I didn't want to stop. Emily never disappoints but I think this is my new favorite book by Emily.

First Loves

Revisado: 04-14-13

I always enjoy books about first loves and so I really enjoyed this story of Owen and Avery. They are an opposites attracts kind of couple. He plans everything out and Avery is very spirited and fun-loving. Just loved the Montgomery family. Who doesn't love hunky construction workers with tool belts? Book 2 of this trilogy did not disappoint me. Can't wait to read the 3rd book next.
