Book Review: 662

My Take:

The Quiet Becoming

How often does a book feel like a deep breath for your soul? The Other Side Of Awakening: A Memoir of Madness, Magic, and the Making of Me, is the 1st book in the Sacred Spiral series written by Rilee Astraea, and offers just that, a rare, moving experience that blurs the line between memoir and spiritual meditation.

It’s not just a story of pain or healing, it’s a graceful unravelling into truth.

This book is a soulful and beautifully reflective read.

The highlight I loved about this book is its poetic honesty. The storyline is not bound by a typical structure it flows like thought and feeling, taking you through grief, shadow, and self-discovery. It feels more like being gently held than simply being told a story.

The author has poured heart, wisdom, and raw vulnerability into each page. There’s a quiet magic in how she allows her experiences to teach without preaching. The writing is lyrical, introspective, and powerful. It invites you to pause, breathe, and reflect on your own path. 

This book is a must-read for anyone who has ever felt lost, questioned their identity, or longed to feel seen. I found it to be deeply comforting and profoundly resonant. The author’s voice is authentic and luminous, and I can’t wait to follow more of her journey.

Overall, poetic, honest, mystical, and deeply grounding. Click here to read this soulful memoir and begin your own inner awakening. The Other Side Of Awakening: A Memoir of Madness, Magic, and the Making of Me, the first book in the Sacred Spiral series, written by Rilee Astraea.

My Take: Ever wondered how stories shape our faith and resilience? Today we are going to talk about a fascinating read!  Altars of Living Stones: Building Faith One Testimony at a Time by Patrick Aquilone,  is a gem of a book that delves into the power of testimonies in building our faith.  Each page was like adding a stone to the altar of our spiritual journey, reinforcing our foundation with real-life accounts of God's faithfulness.

Author Interview With Gayatri Athreyan.

Image
First, before we move forward with our Author's Interview, I would like to start with an introduction. 1.Could you please introduce yourself to us? A content leader by profession, a writer by passion, and a life-long learner by interest - that is me in a nutshell. I am Gayatri, and I have been in the writing profession for over three decades now, and only recently published by first book. I work for an IT organisation where I manage a team of writers and help design customer content for products. Writing has been my passion since childhood, and after having written stories and poems over decades, I finally decided to write something worthwhile and put it out there for people to read. 2. Congratulations on your book. So what inspired you to write this book? I believe firmly in the philosophy that life is a journey of learning. I think we learn all through our lives - as a child at school and college, as a worker at the work place, and other structured learning environments. But also...

Author's Interview with Brendan Tsoi.

Image
Before we dive into our exciting conversation with today’s remarkable author, let’s start by getting to know the creative mind behind the diverse and captivating stories. 1. Could you please introduce yourself to us? Ah, introductions. Funny thing, really. You spend a lifetime becoming who you are, and then you’re asked to sum it up in a sentence or two. I guess, at my core, I’m just someone trying to make sense of things. I’ve worn a few hats—father, husband, teacher, life coach, mentor, employer, writer but I don’t think any one title really defines me. I write because I need to, because stories have a way of getting under your skin and demanding to be told. A Vampire’s Meetings with Masters wasn’t just a book I decided to write; it was something that grew out of years of thinking, questioning, and living. If anything, I see myself as a storyteller, sharing what I’ve gathered along the way. 2. Congratulations on your book! What inspired you to write it? Thanks. It’s been a journey, t...
