Triumph Over Trauma

With the start of a brand new year, I want to wish the readers of this blog a very 
Happy 2024 with lots of reading moments!

In Belgium, the year starts with ideal reading weather: raining, grey and cold.
So, I can't do lots of things in the garden neither visiting royal destinations.

Instead I'm in the sofa, reading and reviewing some interesting books such as
Triumph Over Trauma.

The book is all about use of psychedelics for treating psychological traumas.
First the author Randall S. Hansen gave an overview about the history of these
treatements and then there were amazing personal stories.

Although I don't know much about this subject, I liked the book as well as the
stories and I can recommend Triumph Over Trauma to people who are interested
in the subject. 

Withouth any doubt, I give a 5 star rating!

Some Musings

So this was the first post of 2024, I hope to read and review more this year than
last year. 

Wish you a very happy Tuesday and enjoy reading!

World Upside Down

a good book and well written.




My Review

It took a while, before I could start reading the World Upside Down, but
as always in the books of Louis McCall, it was a wonderful story, which
I couldn't put away. 

It was a thoughtful and meaningful book so, I recommend
'World Upside Down: The Life of Paul, God's Chosen
Messenger' for readers who enjoy biblical history.

Without any doubt I give a 5 star rating.

Our Man in Munich written by A.M Sadar

well written book




My review


While reading Our Man in Munich written by A.M Sadar I noted some points
of the book:

Strengths:

A well-developed and complex protagonist - good characters
A suspenseful and engrossing plot
Insightful exploration of the themes of war, trauma, and resilience

Weaknesses:

The novel's historical setting may not be familiar to all readers
The novel's ending may be a bit abrupt for some readers

I really enjoyed the historical story and the characters so, I give a 
4.5 à 5 star rating.
