Books I`m Reading This Week 📚
Edit after finishing The Last Labyrinth - don`t read it. There is no ending. You spend all this time in a fairly interesting story only to be dropped off unceremoniously with no conclusion whatsoever. Highly annoying. I enjoyed her other books but hard pass on this one

I picked this up on a whim. Not having heard of the author but the beautiful cover and synopsis had me hooked. Semele Cavnow is an intelligent women which adds depth to the story. Then you have the sexy Theo Bossard who you’re not always sure of his intentions. I love how the book switches between an ancient manuscript and present time. There’s enough adventure and mystery to keep the pages turning. 🌟🌟🌟🌟/5 •

The Fortune Teller by Gwendolyn Womack ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Definitely one of my top reads of 2017! I enjoyed this so much that I`ve been recommending to everyone I talk to!
_____
My (spoiler free) summary: Semele Cavnow is an appraiser who has just landed the assignment of her dreams, handling the extensive estate of a lauded antiquities collector. Things are quickly complicated by her discovery of an ancient manuscript dating from the time of Cleopatra and a cryptic note left by the collector. Semele becomes immersed in reading the narrative but soon learns the danger behind her discovery.
____
This book was so amazing that I read it cover to cover in one night. It`s fast paced, switching between the ancient narrator and present day seamlessly, and the mystery keeps you turning the pages. It`s magical without being full on fantasy. My only complaint is that it could have been longer, it was almost too fast! I guess everyone says that about books they love. I highly recommend this if you like historical novels, a bit of magic, tarot reading/history and a fast paced mystery. I checked this out of the library but I must own a copy soon!!! _____

The Premonitions Club by gwendolyn.womack
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This book was a total surprise from the moment it came on my desk to me randomly deciding to pick it up all the way through to the final pages. The story was firmly YA while also surprisingly adult with the government aspect of it. A very different take on the paranormal and I loved how it wasn’t so fantastical and very real-world based.

Another great collection of kindle reads and audible listens. My favorite was definitely The Last Labyrinth, but they each had their charms 🥰

Honesty time. When did you start putting up Christmas decorations?? 🎄
.
Myself... I started decorating the house at the beginning of November. Yep. The tree included!
.
Being stuck inside for COVID, having Christmas decor up made the indoors so much more cozy! Also made it easier to sit down and power through a good book!
.
I finished The Memory Painter this week after finding it at a major sale at indigo years ago. I had it on my TBR shelf and finally read it!
.
If you are looking for an easy read with a bit of fantasy, this one hits the spot! It covers the story of a man and woman who have memories of their former pasts and puts into question the idea of reincarnation. Are these their own memories? And why are they seeing these events? Now they just need to remember why they have these memories and protect those around them!

When Liv and her friends stumble on old boxes of psychic predictions that were never meant to be found, they are put on the radar of dangerous people who’d do anything to get their hands on those predictions.

Synkroniciti is delighted to welcome writer and photographer Gwendolyn Womack of Houston with two luminous kaleidoscope photographs that revel in color, texture, and transformation. Aurora Borealis Rose unfurls in shades of red, pink, and orange, a floral constellation that seems to pulse with heat. Amethyst in Bloom—one of our “Patterns” Cover Contest finalists—shimmers in a cooler spectrum of blue, violet, and silver. Here the kaleidoscope refuses containment, its geometry spilling beyond the frame, creating a subtle tension between order and expansion. Strong textures suggest motion and metamorphosis. Gwendolyn’s images invite us to linger inside the shifting symmetry, mesmerized by light and shadow.
View Gwendolyn`s shimmering kaleidoscopes in Synkroniciti’s “Patterns” issue, available here: https://synkroniciti.com/the-magazine/purchase-individual-issues/.

BOOK REVIEW: The Fortune Teller by Gwendolyn Womack
•
Semele Cavnow, accomplished antiquities appraiser and graphologist, lands the gig of her dreams--the chance to appraise the infamous private collection of recently deceased Marcel Bossard.
•
Tucked away in the midst of Bossard`s vast collection, Semele finds a mysterious and ancient manuscript that isn`t accounted for anywhere, and as soon she begins to translate the archaic words, her carefully curated life begins to unravel at the seams. Soon Semele understands that the manuscript is at once a memoir and a prophecy--one that is connected to her in ways she never would have imagined.
‐----------------------------
Womack gracefully weaves present and (several) past narratives into a cohesive story with the help of tarot card imagery. There`s almost a sense of foreboding that`s always lurking around the corner (the page?) that I quite enjoyed, though the ending felt a little incomplete to me. I flew through this novel in the span of about two days, and can say it`s a fun and not too heavy read. I`d recommend for fans of light historical fiction, or those interested in tarot or divination. Overall, I`d give it ★★★☆☆ (3.5)

ARC Review – Thank you camcat_books and storygramtours the gifted ARC of The Premonitions Club.
🌟🌟🌟🌟
I was excited to read this book when I found out the author was inspired to write this book after finding out there was a real Premonitions Bureau that existed from the late sixties to the early nineties. I love historical fiction and YA books, so I thought this might be a fun spin on both. This book did not disappoint!
This was a fun, easy read that had some good twists and turns. I think this is a great book for someone who is beginning to read thrillers or enjoys thrillers that aren’t too extreme. It definitely made me curious to learn more about the real Premonitions Bureau. I also enjoyed The Premonitions Club Handbook at the end of the story. It went a little more in depth on the different types of psychic abilities, which I thought was a lot of fun. There is also a small romantic story on the side that is sweet, but a very small portion of the story line and has zero spice.
*Synopsis*
When Liv Hall and her friends find boxes of letters hidden in her grandfather’s attic, they discover hundreds of psychic predictions addressed to the Premonitions Bureau, a bureau to investigate psychic abilities that mysteriously closed in 1993. As the group reads decades-old premonitions, they stumble on letters from powerful psychics who mailed in their predictions and then disappeared.
A post online about the found predictions alerts a black ops group in charge of the military’s paranormal research, who will do anything to get their hand on the letters and the psychics who wrote them. Liv and her friends now know too much, and they’re directly in the crosshairs. To survive, they’re going to have to rely on each other and the unlikely help of psychics who thought they’d left the dangers of the Bureau behind forever.

A THRILLING PAGE-TURNER FROM THE USA TODAY BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE FORTUNE TELLER
Travel through time with the touch of a hand.
Roan West was born with an extraordinary gift: he can relive memories across centuries and glean history first-hand. A highly skilled psychometrist, Roan is able to perceive the past of any object he touches. He has spent his life as a voyeur, using his talents to find and sell valuable antiques, but his quiet life in New Orleans is about to change. Stuart, a fellow pyschometrist and Roan’s close friend, has just unearthed several “ooparts”: out-of-place-artifacts that challenge recorded history, including a ring belonging to the seventeenth century mathematician and philosopher René Descartes that was found buried in prehistoric bedrock.
The implications are staggering, but soon after the discovery, Stuart disappears, making him one of several psychometrists who have died mysteriously in recent months or vanished without a trace. When Roan comes across a YouTube video of a young woman who has discovered a priceless pocket watch by “sensing” it, he knows he has to warn her—but will Melicent Tilpin listen? And can Roan find Stuart before it’s too late? The quest for answers will lead Roan and Melicent around the world, and to forgotten corners of history, before it brings them closer to a startling truth and to each other in the latest romantic thriller from Gwendolyn Womack—the bestselling, PRISM Award-winning author of The Memory Painter and The Fortune Teller.

The Premonitions Club by Gwendolyn Womack
4⭐
While cleaning out her grandfather`s attic after his death, Liv finds boxes with her dad`s name on them full of letters addressed to The Premonitions Bureau, a group dedicated to verifying the premonitions sent to them. Liv and the entire group of her friends that saw the letters are now being investigated and hunted by a group that wants the letters for themselves.
This was a super fun and quick story that brings together themes like, YA, science fiction, paranormal, and historical fiction. It was fast paced with plenty of action and interesting enough characters. I recommend checking this book out if you`re interested in YA paranormal books.

| Resenha: O Pintor de Memórias
Gwendolyn Womack
Record
2016
📖 Sinopse
Os sonhos de Bryan e Linz não são como os nossos. Eles são mais intensos... quase como outras vidas. Os dois experimentam muitos prazeres e sofrimentos, de intrigas no Japão medieval ao Renascimento em Bruges. Eles parecem interligados, ter uma conexão poderosa, mas que é perturbada por um inimigo, cujo plano apenas os dois podem impedir que se concretize.
💬 Opinião
Fui influenciado pela Bela (oquetenhopracontar) a ler essa obra, a qual ela me “vendeu” como semelhante a “Recursão”, do Blake Crouch, um livro de ficção científica que envolve viagens no tempo e que amei.
E “O Pintor de Memórias” tem mesmo essa pegada. Eu definiria como um romance com abordagens históricas, espirituais e científicas. Então compartimentarei o que eu mais gostei dentro desses três tópicos (e o que me fez tirar uma estrela):
- História: o carro chefe (e melhor coisa) do livro. Ao trabalhar os sonhos realistas dos protagonistas, a autora recria fatos históricos, passando pelo Egito Antigo (10.000 a.C.), pelo Império Romano (250 d.C.), e pelo descobrimento das Américas (986 d.C). Ao mesmo tempo que nos entretemos, aprendemos sobre marcos históricos de vikings, violinistas famosos, personalidades importantes na criação da filosofia budista, entre outros. Uma sacada genial.
- Espiritualidade: a parte que menos me interessou e que acabou sendo a mais relevante para a história. Mas isso é algo pessoal e, caso você se interesse por assuntos relacionados a reencarnação, por exemplo, irá se identificar.
- Ciência: a abordagem que mais me deixou instigado, a princípio, mas a autora acaba decidindo não seguir por esse caminho. Com protagonistas geneticistas (como eu rs), farmacêuticos e pesquisadores (como eu de novo rs), fiquei na torcida para que a obra aprofundasse nas bases fisiológicas e químicas do composto que serve de gatilho para os episódios históricos, mas ela preferiu a espiritualidade rs.
De toda forma, a história é incrível, tem um desenrolar satisfatório e escrita inteligente, apesar de não ter a mesma grandiosidade de “Recursão”.
Nota: 4 em 5 ⭐
