2023 BBNYA 7th Place Spotlight: Ghosts of Mars by Stuart White (The Adventures of Eva Knight #1) | Children’s #Scifi #Space #Exploration

2023 BBNYA 7th Place Spotlight: Ghosts of Mars by Stuart White (The Adventu..

Today I’m shining a spotlight on the 7th Place Finalist in the 2023 Book Blogger’s Novel of the Year competition., Ghosts of Mars by Stuart White.

How would you feel if you were born on Mars, were the most famous person in the Solar System, but could never leave the Red Planet?

Mars. 2045.
My name’s Eva, and I’m a Martian.

Well, technically the first Martianborn human – I’m not, like, green or anything.

So listen, we’re in trouble here; I need to steal a rover to rescue Dad, who’s stuck in a mining vent, in a planet-wide dust-storm, far from our base, or he’ll die. He may even be already dead.

Oh, and I’m Type 1 Diabetic with no insulin. Wish me luck.

With a Type 1 Diabetic main character, Ghosts of Mars explores how life beyond Earth, and the fame and scrutiny that come with it, affects the young people involved, who didn’t sign up for life on Mars.

Ten percent of the author’s profits go to Diabetes UK!

Book Review | Jack and I by Laury A. Egan | #PsychologicalSuspense #Thriller #MultiplePersonalityDisorder #DisassociativeIdentity #5Star #GrippingTale

#BookReview #FosterCareAbuse #DID #LGBTQ #Bookstagram #BookX #RecommendedReading

After reviewing Laury A. Egan’s previous book, I was pleased to be invited to review her newest release, Jack and I. While the story is sometimes a complex and heart-wrenching tale, it underscores the presence of good people willing to protect the innocent and the urgent need for reforms in the foster care system.

There are themes of physical, sexual, and mental child abuse, rape, grooming, and sexual content. While I would typically avoid a book with these themes, I am so glad I agreed to read Jack and I. Change can never be made, nor situations like Jack’s prevented, if we bury our heads in the sand. My heart goes out to young Jack, and I wish him all the best in the future.
