The Forgotten Garden by G Pa Rhymes

The Forgotten Garden: A Children's Chapter Book About Kindness, Teamwork and the Magic of Pollinators by G Pa Rhymes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A very enticing read for kids who have stepped into chapter books, The forgotten garden has some lyrical rhymes, a neat story line and few pictures with some nice morale packed into it.
The book takes the readers on an adventure from a beach to a forest. A bunch of friends set out on a journey to go to the woods to find a treasure which is long forgotten. They meet few critters along the way and with some great teamwork learn about environment and the life cycle of a plant. This book blends relationship skills along with science very beautifully. Young readers will love this book. I would definitely recommend it.

Cyber Case Thorn (The Cyber Case series Book 1) by Ken Tentarelli

Cyber Case Thorn by Ken Tentarelli
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a different kind of a suspense thriller where the chase is to track a cyber security hacker. Thorn enters the dark web for fun but later gets too involved into it and becomes dangerous. Persephone (Seph) works for cyber security agency and takes a lead to track down Thorn. It is a psychological thriller because no one expects what Thorn does next.
I liked the plot, though it isn’t something which kept me on the edge, it is a very fast read. I really enjoyed it and looking forward to more in the series.

You from my world by Nicole.C.W

You From My World by Nicole C.W.
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was an interesting read, a very creative and impossible fantasy/ romance genre. Le Haul, a south Korean author is in the process of writing a book when one fine day one of her antagonist character from the book comes out and attacks her. It takes a while for her to get over that incident when he comes again and drags her into his world. He is apparently not happy with his role and circumstances in the book. It’s a very creative concept, I liked it. The narrative is a little flat at places and there could be a little more depth in the characters but overall I liked the book.

Chasing Roses by Jean M.Grant

Chasing Roses by Jean M. Grant
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was such an enjoyable read. 4 strangers, A two-week scavenger hunt, 12 weeks and prize money. Will they be able to solve it together, will they win the prize? Or will they find something a lot more valuable than that? I really loved this adventure. We have the hunt on one side and on the other side, we have each of the characters unraveling themselves, each of them has a unique past and a story. It was really heartwarming to see their growth. A very engaging read with some real character development. Highly recommend it.

The Race for the lost Coin by Luciana Cavallaro

The Race for the Lost Coin by Luciana Cavallaro
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am a fan of Greek history and hence picked this book though it is no 2 of the trilogy . Though I did not read book 1, this book got my attention till the very end . The story revolves around a legacy of guardianship of a coin which passes on from generation to generation. Nik, a historian is now the current guardian of the coin after his grandfather is suddenly kidnapped. Now Nik faces two trials , rescue his grandfather and also protect the coin understanding its true power and why people are chasing it . He makes enemies and befriends strangers , one of them a detective , and then the plot becomes embroiled in action and suspense . There are few books which can combine historic fiction and action so well, this book does an incredible job. I enjoyed reading this book.
