I like the book because of the way Harry Potter going on the adventure to kill Lord Voldemort (I think), and also because of the adventure, mystery, and fantasy.

This is non-fiction. Stephen was four year old in 1942 when he was deported from German occupied Guernsey. He and his parents were sent to a prison camp where they all survived for three years. After the war they returned to their home which had been taken over by another family. Stephen relates the events he remembers.

The book was amazing. In the beginning, it was very normal and did not have any interesting things, but as I continued reading, I understood the hype for this book.

In The Power of Regret, Daniel H. Pink challenges the idea that we should live with "no regrets." Instead, he argues that regret is not only normal but essential to living a meaningful, thoughtful life. Drawing on research from psychology, neuroscience, and a global survey of regrets, Pink shows that regret can clarify what we value, sharpen our decision-making, and help us grow. Rather than avoiding regret, we should listen to it, learn from it, and use it as a tool for improvement. He identifies four core types of regret that people around the world commonly experience: 1. Foundation Regrets – “If only I had been more responsible…” 2. Boldness Regrets – “If only I had taken the chance…” 3. Moral Regrets – “If only I had done the right thing…” 4. Connection Regrets – “If only I had reached out…” By recognizing these patterns, we can make better choices going forward and deepen our relationships, careers, and personal growth. Ultimately, The Power of Regret flips the script: regret isn’t a weakness—it’s a powerful human emotion that, when handled well, helps us live more intentionally and become better versions of ourselves.

It was just so interesting to see it from darkstalker’s perspective and see him slowly turn evil and it also make me feel bad for him aswell

I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. I stumbled upon this book while searching my library's mystery shelves. I am a big fan of the Gilded Age and this sounded like a good read. Pamela Thompson is used to living richly and spending her time volunteering at charities. Unfortunately, her husband has foolishly spent their fortune in a scam. Pamela and her husband lose everything. Then Pamela loses her husband, Jack. She then takes over a boardinghouse that is one of her investments since she and her ward Brenda can live there. Pamela becomes a store detective at Macy's. This was my favorite part of the book. I loved reading about her training with Harry, the store setting, all of the items for sale back then. Pamela goes on to become a compation to Lydia Jennings, a rich woman who thinks there is something amiss with her household finances, staff, etc. I also loved the friendship that forms with Pamela's attorney boss, Prescott. I struggled to figure out who the murderer was - which is always a fun thing for a reader. I love the constant guessing game while reading a good mystery book. I plan on reading the other books in this series because I really liked how strong Pamela became while remaining a lady in those times. (from my Goodreads review)

First time reading this author's work and although it was a pleasurable story, it was more like a light summer read to me. The premise is that Veronica found out that she was adopted through a DNA test kit given to her by her sister for Christmas. She suspected as such since her high school years but never spoke of it until now. Her adopted family thought it would be good to visit the countries that she was related to and her father paid for a trip arranged by her sister to Ireland, France Italy and Denmark. There are elements of fantasy throughout which you had to go with, but it was a very predictable story . I will rate it 3 stars, but I think the author could have made the book more interesting by giving more background on the characters and on Veronica's relationship with Jonathan previous to her trip.

4.5/5 Loved it!

This book is really funny and amazing! It’s about a couple of high schoolers who develop super powers and try to save the world. There is a tiny bit of romance but it doesn’t really get too annoying for those who don’t love romance like me. It’s a fun read and I really enjoyed listening to it. I highly recommend this book!

I really liked it but it was a bit boring at times but my favorite was being able to see how ivy reacted to sunny who was a former protagonist
