Those Little White LinesThose Little White Lines by Kaz Piper
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Plot/Idea:
Written in a autobiographical style, based on a true biography, the story takes its reader into the midst of a very dangerous situation where drug lords prey on beautiful women via their vehicle of a rock band_ Gaining entry into USA via Canada is not her only objective - yet she will pay the price as the fast lane becomes a dangerous trap_
Gaining ground as a victor rather than a victim is her saving grace_ Can she emerge from this destructive lifestyle and gain her true identity?
Prose: Written in first person dialogue the author takes us on a very personal journey that rings with red flags and tension that permeates the plot_
Originality:
The story is a journey into danger and the fate of a beautiful woman hangs in the balance at all levels_ Although the story line is not totally original, its own originality has its force to continue reading in order to see the outcome and end game_
Character/Execution:
Bridget is a very believable protagonist_ Her character dominates the story in every way as an autobiographical portrayal can do. Other characters are less lively and intense, but lurk in the background like sleeping tigers ready to pounce. Bridget is always walking the "fine line" between expensive gifts and avoiding imminent dangers from her "friends" and their exploits with danger. With the exception of her sister who is almost caught up in the momentum and who is a significant character in the protagonist's struggles - and has her back_

Tudor Rose

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1946700673/ref=nosim/?tag=librarythin06-20

Fast paced, complex plot that will keep your mind racing to the final chapter. Set in the
form of a Three Act Theatrical Play, the cast enter and exit exquisitely, leaving the audience (reader) breathless.
From a low-ceiling crowded parlour to the courts of the Queen Elizabeth 1, Doyle takes the
reader on a rumbustious ride in his latest Y. A novel, Tudor Rose. Set in fictional
Gordonsrod and London, UK 1565 - 1566. One year of mystery, intriguing symbols and
signs along with mystery men keep Rose on her toes. Surrounded by fascinating
characters such as the effervescent Aunt Clarence, with a personality as large as her
figure. Then there is best friend, Sybille. Together they determine to move upwards on the
style and money ladder, preferably in London, where their goal is aimed. Everybody
knows the rules of culture and everybody breaks them as plans ebb and flow towards the
ultimate goal - (no spoilers)
The story is filled with beautifully crafted expressions, some hilarious, …”Avis rolled over to
find her breakfast tray too far away on the bedside table… (p 33)
Original:
“…It was the support a cold brick might give another in holding up a wall.” (p54)
Speaking pictures:
“…but their eyes ere constantly flicking to the queen like moths trying to reach the
sun.” (p66)
Context:
Rose is fast becoming a friend of the fashionable as she reaches for her ultimate goal…to
reach royalty and their palace. Mingling with maids and attendants, her cute smile, kind
words and generosity (of stolen goods) and Sybille’s close encounters yield much
excitement and even their priceless goals! Filled with intrigue, dancing, royal masques,
monasteries and mysterious creatures, this story will take you to another time and place
when life was more of a stage and all the creatures merely players.
A beautifully crafter story worth the reading!

The Yoga of Max's Discontent

From the hub and bustle of New York’s 59th street to the slippery slopes of the Himalayas, Bajaj takes us on a stimulating and intense journey of mind, body and spirit.
Protagonist Max almost lighter-heartedly and spontaneously takes on a completely new and dangerous journey to find inner sanctum and outward tranquility, finding extra-ordinary new strengths for each hurdle that confronts in his determined search upwards on a path fraught with slippery curves.  
Bringing together sounds, tastes and aromas of danger in dark streets to the fresh air of Gomukh we collide with a variety of interesting characters, like Viveka the man who stirs his pot and Max’s heart to a strange and compelling Indian army officer, Max takes us deep into his world and his search for his own reality.
Descriptive, intense and unrelenting, Max will take you on his life-changing journey to unimaginable peaks and deep valleys.
This is an ‘expedition-experience’ that will fascinate you and challenge your world in every radiant and dark facet.
Karan Bajaj has put his heart and soul into this creation to stimulate his readers’ thoughts and senses to see a new world opening up beyond busy worlds and even wildest imaginations.
