Fundamentally, an interesting, humorous, human take on a fictional UN representative trying to create a test programme in Iraq for ISIS brides & the possibilities of their deradicalisation & return to their homelands & family.

I haven’t read a book within one day for a while, but I did it twice with the Brook Mountain Duology by DV Fischer. Fantastic characters, great plot and intricate, & detailed world building come together to make this an amazing duology!

Dementia is a subject close to my heart as I have experienced it with my parents & 3 Uncles. I would like to read Emma's experience, see how different things are in America and how Bruce Willis was treated, if him being famous impacted treatments offered.

Just finished reading Reject Me by DV Fischer Bk1 of the Brook Mountain duology. Started & finished in one day. It's highly addictive reading. I love the Brook Mountain pack & whilst I can't wait to read more, I do not want it to end!

It's not often a book has me 'daytime reading' but Reject Him bk1 of Brook Mountain Duology by DV Fischer has me hooked!
I was only going to open it on my tablet, ready to start reading tonight but I'm at 41% already & hating having to put it down!

It was an intriguing, eye-opening, heartbreaking & thought-provoking read. It's not just a work of fiction but the passing on of the truth of the real stories of a not so distant past.

Wow, this book is a fast read! Halfway through already!
Will Cat & Damien get a happy ending, and will it be in Elaria, a realm where dragons exist or modern-day LA where Cat is a stuntwoman?

Though this book is historical fiction, you'll also find yourself being educated about a period of real history not necessarily taught in schools when you read The Lies They Told by Ellen Marie Wiseman
