An earthquake has reduced the home of ten-year old Alex to rubble, taking with it his father and his best friend. With their world in ruins and Ceausescu tightening his grip on a fearful nation, Alex's mother, Eva, must find the strength to protect her son and fight for a future beyond the confines of Communist Romania.  Inspired by real events, this story captures the heartbreak of loss, the value of tradition, and the enduring hope of a migrant mother and son determined to build a better life from the ashes. The only thing I would warn about is about a natural disaster and the aftermath of one. It is not graphic in this story. There isn't too much bad language.  Link to Mihaela's book: Everything Worth Counting: A Mother and Son’s Journey Beyond the Iron Curtain (From the Meadows of Izvoarele Book 1) - Kindle edition by Balan Larsen, Mihaela.

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2574424/fan_mail/new] The Stranded Book summary: By the time the classified report is leaked to the public, it’s already too late. A horrifying pandemic has begun to spread, with ferocious speed, from Paris to the rest of Europe. The infected masses die quickly . . . but they don’t remain dead for long. As military forces are overpowered by the horde of undead, civilization as we know it is pushed to the breaking point. Those who remain uninfected rush the ports, hoping to escape the bloodthirsty beasts, desperate for some safe harbor. Fleeing Barcelona, a lone survivor makes the perilous journey to Mallorca. Once a vacationer’s paradise, the island is now the last refuge of a small but resilient community, and they welcome the newcomer with open arms. But the pristine, secluded landscape belies the dangers they face—from both the infected and one another. This is a zombie apocalypse and a thriller. I would safely put this at a 3.5, almost 4 sledgehammers for violence and dealing with a pandemic.  Language is relatively clean. I would give it a 1.5 out of 5.  Link to Dinko's book: The Stranded: A Zombie Apocalypse Novel (Anno Initium): Skopljak, Dinko: 9781039413160: Amazon.com: Books [https://www.amazon.com/Stranded-Zombie-Apocalypse-Novel-Initium/dp/1039413161/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.gp6nVNMSsKUdR4n6u7VgfGNtqMXDddsMOoTeqylfuF9W3assmdivLnzxlA_pmq4uD5lkp-XPE1fYrFEeSkn7bb7pBm-Ek0idYs1YsAlKCfo.3D7Q1vbNbrZRDi_N0H6kBeOFiN8gynkai3MSJiozvsk&qid=1773001244&sr=1-1] Link to my first book Amaranth: Amaranth (The White Dragon): Davenport, Samantha: 9781639886128: Amazon.com: Books [https://www.amazon.com/Amaranth-Samantha-Davenport/dp/1639886125/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.3uIFFAvy_kRN-F_FCXc5z0a1EI8XNAtLgzBvIDDSoFbGjHj071QN20LucGBJIEps.kgKkLK8JfX1i71eVgiGNsno-tEVC5Mc27fg2XJmbunE&qid=1773001064&sr=1-1] Are you an unknown author?

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2574424/fan_mail/new] Faolan: The Younger Years  Book summary: Born of bone and flesh against Odin's law, she was stolen as a toddler. Manupulated and trained, she was molded into one of Valhalla's fiercest warriors. This is the tale of her younger years. Not much violence except mentions of war and training. It is not graphic.

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2574424/fan_mail/new] Werewolves of Landfall, Book One of the Outside World series  Book summary: Special Agent Carl Abrams of the FBI is no stranger to peril and national threats. But when innocent infants are being kidnapped in the city of Landfall, he knows he must act fast. The children’s lives are on the line and the only lead he has is from a mysterious woman who claims the children are being raised as werewolves.  Knowing the ins and outs of the Bureau, Abrams must tread lightly on the investigation. Otherwise, the kids and city will be in more danger than ever before. Can Abrams recover the children safely and go up against these enemies alone or will he endanger more lives than he ever realized? There is some strong language.  Some violence: I give it 2.5 sledgehammers out of 5. Mentions of child abuse. It's not graphic, but if you're sensitive to that, you've been warned.

Can Neas stop her uncle's bid for ultimate power without losing those she loves? Romance: Clean.  There is descriptions of death and some violence, but it is not graphic. I would give it half a sledgehammer.
