Couldn’t stop reading. Enjoy very much Maggie’s life and her family.

Qué entretenido es mirar el cielo durante una noche estrellada; "Cuentan mis Estrellas" nos invita a hacer justo eso.
Al ubicar las constelaciones que dominan cada signo del zodíaco empieza la legendaria conversación sobre los rasgos que imparten sobre cada quien. Es la magia celeste que se mece en nuestra imaginación arrullada por el canto de los grillos en la quietud de un cielo cuajado de estrellas.

A superb handbook in that every chapter offers a great deal of food for thought. There are nuggets of wisdom in every paragraph, bite-size quotes from artists, philosophers, and authors the world over, strung together to stimulate the reader’s (student’s) mind.
In chapter 7, The Mystery, Patricia talks about the ‘intelligence of the universe’ and that topic, more than the others, spoke to me because I believe we are one with the world—humankind.
We share in a collective wisdom and as artists we contribute our genetic memories through writing, painting, etc., in the hopes that they might resonate with like-minded others.
“Myth, Magic, and Metaphor” is like a personal Creative Writing course that I will revisit often. It is so encouraging to be affirmed in one’s artistic journey and Patricia’s book has done just that!

Cuando Maité cumple 15 años, el don de cuna que recibió de su hada madrina es activado. Maité empieza a tener sueños lúcidos y aunque al principio el don le presenta una experiencia horrible, a medida que avanza la historia sus sueños se convierten en una herramienta muy útil que le permite descubrir los secretos mágicos de sus antepasados. Me encantó viajar con esta chica y animarla a lo largo de su travesía. Desde la terrible pérdida que desata una inmensa aventura hasta el último segundo colmado de descubrimientos y sorpresas.

...La autora, Patricia Bossano, mantiene hábilmente un equilibrio entre los elementos fantásticos y la maduración emocional y psicológica de Maité. Su escritura es vívida y evocadora, mezclando sin problemas lo tangible con lo etéreo y evocando un amplio espectro de emociones...
"Un Don de Cuna" es una historia fascinante que armoniza la evolución de los personajes, la intriga de la trama y la prosa poética. Explora elocuentemente temas de auto-descubrimiento y comprensión del lugar de uno en los reinos visibles e invisibles. La novela se erige como una celebración del encanto perdurable de la fantasía y su capacidad para reflejar los aspectos más profundos de la condición humana.

Every sentence felt meaningful and well-constructed and I ended up reading the second half of the book in about one day because I couldn't put it down. I'm happy I read it and feel even more excited to promote it now that I know it's so well done.

Más allá de la fantasía, el encanto y un toque de romance, Herencia Encantada es un regalo de las hadas que resalta los lazos entre las mujeres en una familia híbrida: seres humanos y feéricos.

“Love and Homegrown Magic” is an easy, delightful read. It’s filled with care and devotion to family ingrained by belief in sacrifice, hard work, and honesty. The characters are relatable and the readers can easily find themselves in any of them. The main character, Maggie, holds the torch of the story. She’s the matriarch who wields the family to achieve success amidst hardships and struggles. Her indomitable spirit is reminiscent of the pioneers in foreign lands. Her unstoppable faith and strong belief in her goal replicates the many immigrants of this country. Her vision is focused on her only goal: to succeed at all cost. It was fueled by a strong desire to see her daughters and her siblings well established in their chosen careers. Nothing is insurmountable for her.
Patricia’s literary style brims with a delicate ability to move the readers from scene to scene and to keep them captivated in anticipation for the next turn of event. She has the skill to keep them spellbound. Her choice of words is simple but poetic and romantic. Her inspiring and hopeful ending leaves the readers with a smile on their face. Love and Homegrown Magic is simply magical!

…and in lighting candles, and in trusting your intentions to a new moon that will see them manifested during the full moon. Love and Homegrown Magic covers seven decades of Maggie’s life, in which religion, superstition, and folk magic harmonize with harsh realities and the unbreakable bond between a mother and her daughters. A satisfying read that will stay with you for a while.

Entre Duendes y Ratones es una historia llena de acción y acontecimientos novedosos en el hemisferio sur, donde se encuentra Navidaldea. Una lectura súper entretenida que nos habla del verdadero significado de la Navidad y de lo que debemos valorar.

Me encanta las historias que tienen un pensamiento positivo.

What can I say, Theresa Halvorsen's "River City Widows" rang a lot of supernatural bells for me.
Theresa has done a masterful job of blending facts and fiction by presenting historical and emotional landmarks and then haunting them. She lulled us into a sense of normalcy through ordinary sleep and hormonal disorders, only to pull the rug from under us to reveal the paranormal phenomena lurking underneath.
Tasia is a relatable character (we are in her mind for the duration), she is the recently widowed mother of two, living in a haunted house. The devilry in Theresa’s storytelling ability comes with Tasia’s shift into a supernatural plane; all sensation and thought related to widowhood and motherhood become gradually tainted with an unearthly force. By then the skeptical reader is long gone, or at least willing to admit there might be something to the ghostly dimension.
As for me, “River City Widows” made me feel satisfyingly validated, so thank you very much!

Once again, we readers are invited to follow the path of the faery princess, Nahia. Patricia Bossano’s writing invites our imaginations to take hold as we join Nahia in her new cycle of life as both human and faery. Read this third segment of the Faery cycle and enjoy a trip to another land, from Vulcan’s Palings to the white sandy shores of Moon Dancer Lake and into the Arboretum.
Yes, another realm!

Take a trip to another realm with the 17 year old protagonist who was blessed at birth with a gift from a faery. Read a chapter, take time out? Hard to do. Each chapter entices you to find out what happens next. Plus, the story, once completed, does not leave the reader. Your own thoughts take on a new dimension. In short, I loved this book and highly recommend it to adults of all ages!

Kendle is the feisty heroine whose point of view guides our exploration of the dystopian world created by Ms. Halvorsen. “…back when geneticists were still figuring out how to manipulate the genetic codes of unborn babies…”
The injustice, persecution, and prejudice depicted in “Warehouse Dreams” draw many parallels, and through Kendle’s sense of humor, lots of action, and some serious hot romance, we not only get to know her intimately, but we also sympathize wholeheartedly with her plight, and root for her to save her gifted students and herself!
On reading the last sentence of “Warehouse Dreams,” I smiled, satisfied. Kendle confirmed to me that even if we are afraid of change, we must dare to dream and follow our heart.
