Our Book Review
I thoroughly enjoy reading these books, each release is set upon a general theme and the incredible authors from the Mindful Writers Retreat conjure up their own imaginative pieces related to that topic which brings all the stories together. It always amazes me how the authors write such varied, and interesting tales within one theme, and I think that’s what makes it so exciting for me to read, looking forward to the next story to enjoy.
Obviously, two of my all-time favorite authors are included in the Mindful Writing Retreat series, Kathleen Shoop, and Madhu Bazaz Wangu, so this is already a winner for me, having said I have been introduced to so many more incredible authors because of this series, and I am so grateful for that.
This latest release is summery beach themed incorporating the Shell House of Rehoboth Beach, with it’s history along with each authors different avenue of imagination, I found myself visiting different era’s, along with some colorful characters to enjoy reading about. Some of the stories will captivate you, others are more intriguing and thought-provoking, and some are inspiring such as Stephanie Keyes Wren and Sea Captain, just the first one to come to mind!
Another great read, and I can’t wait for the next one to come out. The great thing with these books is that you can read them as many times as you like and always enjoy them again, and again.
