Book Review Of An Online Love Story A Family's Quest for Silence

A Family's Quest for Silence is a short love story involving the history of the Illuminati and how it affected one American family who had roots dating back two thousand years, from a small town named, Galilee. The story quickly brings the reader into modern day times and how the goals of the Illuminati are threaten when the young is born and educated in America.

The short story gives us an inside peek, at what may, have occurred, in reference to the FreeMasons, and later the Illuminati. This is a fictional story, unless you find truth. The story clearly is not intended to offend any authority, now, or in the past, yet easily explains how "love of the heart" can put a hold on family plans, which may be 2000 years old.

Book Review: The Bridges of Madison County by Robert James Waller

Before writing this review, I did a bit of browsing of reviews already posted in Goodreads and saw mostly 1 star ratings. I felt quite sad because I really liked the story and how it was written. The prose bears a little semblance to Nicholas Sparks and Nicholas Evans, two authors of some books that I liked, and is probably one of the reasons why it was easy for me to fall in love with the story.

Francesca Johnson is celebrating her sixty-seventh birthday, and just like her previous birthdays, she has reserved the day for ceremonies that consists mainly of reminiscing the events that changed her life twenty-two years ago starting on the day she met photographer Robert Kincaid.

The Bridges of Madison County is a very poignant story of two individuals brought together by time and fate, and how they discovered the power of love and loving. It is also a story about choice and how the choices we make can affect us for the rest of our lives.
