We have compiled a list of best reviewed books from across different categories. These titles have been reviewed by any of the reliable book critics in the industry, including the US Review of Books, Pacific Book Review, and Hollywood Book Reviews.
Polyxena by H. Allenger
The book tells the story of the eponymous character from Greek mythology who faces death for having rejected the advances of her captor after the fall of Troy. The Hollywood Book Reviews’ Tara Mcnabb describes Polyxena as skillfully combining “classical mythology with steamy romance and tragic warfare; and a bit surprisingly, a healthy dose of feminism.”
Paradise In Ruins by Antwyn Price
The book offers an interesting view of the Pacific Theater of World War Two through the prism of the military and naval leadership from both sides of the war. The US Review of Books’ Donna Ford remarks that “Price is extremely knowledgeable about his subject, wishing to show the “way it was” for residents of the Pacific region at this time.” The book critic also notes that the book’s narrative proceeds from Price’s broad knowledge of the war in the Pacific.
Sahaja Yoga: Heal And Integrate Your Subtle Energy System by Saraswati Raman
The book discusses in length the process of activating the dormant Kundalini energy that lies within the sacrum bone in each one of the human beings and raising it upward through the chakras along the spinal column through the Sushumna Nadi until it reaches the Sahasrar, where it unites with the cosmic energy. Cristen Fitzpatrick from the USRB describes the book as comprehensive, with the book serving as a manual which “begins with a candid account of the author’s experience with her own history of pain and illness and how she used meditation and concentration as a form of medicine.”
The Life and Times of Sgt. Joseph Thomas “Tom” Biway, USMC by D. J. Cotten
The book follows the story of an unprincipled long-time Marine Corps officer (Biway) and a respectable Chicago policeman, Odell Williams. The former police officer was assigned under the command of the unscrupulous Marine officer. However, a mutual distaste was brewing between the two military personnel soon after. Their loathing led to the murder of one and a court martial for the other. Pacific Book Reviews’ Anthony Avina remarks that Cotten pulled off an excellent job at setting up the book’s story as he takes time to explore both men’s lives before crossing their paths.
Any Way Out by Lisa White
It’s the story of a young woman named Ashley who is caught between the turmoils of a life made miserable by her own parents. HBR’s Anthony Avina commends the way the author explores the story “in a tone of voice which feels personal and connected to the reader instantly.”
