Hello and welcome to my blog of wonders.
Here you can find book reviews of books of all origin and genres. I will always
be honest when it comes to reviewing any book. I try and keep my blog up to
date and filled with truthful and fun reviews. So let's get started shall we?
This beauty was sent to by the author
herself, Katerina Bray. Her book “Barely
Breathing” is yet to be released but its release date is May 2, 2017. So, I
was lucky enough to get my hands on an ARC copy. Not only did I receive Barely Breathing before its release, I
was able to help do some editing on the book. That is such a big deal for me
because I get to help a new author edit her book! I enjoy helping authors
whenever they need help. I know I’m not the best writer or editor but, it helps
give me some practice. So, with this I’ve helped edit two books, by two
different authors.
Barely Breathing is book
one in Shattered Souls trilogy. Barely
Breathing is about a woman named Ruby Bennett who has been through a lot in
her life and only wants to escape the past and build her future. So she moves
from the New York City to Dallas Texas to jump start her new life but she finds
herself drawn to drop dead gorgeous man and as she builds her new life, her
past keeps finding its way back to the surface. Here is the Goodreads blurb. “Take a deep breath
You can and will get through this. Rock Bottom. Is where I find myself, yet again. I remember all the times I’ve stood alone, begging for help, praying for an answer, no longer knowing who I’d become and barely being able to breathe.
I. Will. Not. Let. Those. Memories. Stop. Me. Knock me down, break my soul, and cause me pain, but I have always found the strength to pick myself up and stand tall again. People assume I’m too fragile and incapable of functioning. But surviving is part of my daily routine. I, Ruby Bennett will start over as many times as it takes. My past will not overpower my present.
It’s said the third time’s a charm.”

I am so happy that I could read and edit this book. I didn’t
really know anything about this book when I initially got in contact with
Katerina on Instagram but I’m glad I did. I had an open mind and as I read on I
became more invested in the story and the characters’ development. The deeper I
got into the book, the more attached I became to Ruby. I could connect with her
more and that made the book so much easier to read and relate to. What I love
the most is the strong female lead, Ruby is an independent woman and even
though she has been through a lot, she doesn’t let that stop her.
This book is a worthwhile read and I high recommend this book to
everyone. It’s release is April 24, 2017. Also please be sure to check
out her website https://www.katerinabray.com and her Instagram @KaterinaBray. The links to purchase her book will be listed down below.
