Weird Stort Shories by Sean Newberg is a collection of eight strange tales of karma. I enjoyed reading each of these thought-provoking stories, which gave me, the justice-seeking reader, the satisfaction I awaited.

Book Review
The Secret Language of Women by Nina Romano, a historical fiction set in China in the late 1800s, is the story of a Eurasian healer, Lian, and an Italian sailor, Giacomo, who fall in love after a brief encounter at the Summer Palace, where Lian has accompanied her father, a doctor, to tend the Italian ambassador.
These lovers get separated due to circumstances and try to find their way back to each other despite the many obstacles they face, a journey Lian chronicles in Nushu, a secret language women use, which she has learned from her Chinese mother.
In this fascinating tale of love and loss and search for freedom, the author's descriptions beautifully depict the setting as well as the characters and everything they go through. I enjoyed reading The Secret Language of Women, which is the first installment of the Wayfarer Trilogy, and look forward to reading the next one.
