London, 1939. When war breaks out on librarian Joyce Kindred's doorstep and a call for help rings out across the libraries of London, she's determined to act. Joyce knows only the world of books can offer safety and comfort to her neighbourhood - and she will make sure no one is left behind.

Joyce sets up a mobile library scheme, but soon her acts of resistance go beyond sharing books. She shelters a young Jewish refugee, Adela - and it's not long before she discovers Adela has a secret that could turn their world upside down again...

Occupied Poland, 1942. Dorotha knows any chance of her escaping the barbed wire fences and cruelty of the Lodz ghetto dwindles by the day. Reading isn't just an act of defiance: it's the only thing left in her life over which she has any control. And so she shares books under the cover of darkness, creating a secret library away from her captors - that is, until even that last ray of hope is taken from her...

Joyce and Dorotha were once librarians, ordinary women, and best friends. The war has forced them into acts of unimaginable bravery - but will they ever find each other again?

Mary Magdalene speaks from her heart
Format: Kindle
This book blessed my heart so much as I experienced it while reading through it. Not so much visually or tangibly, but my heart was so ministered to by the place Mary is clearly speaking from. The message of the Kingdom is so clean and clear and refreshing.

Keep shining man of GOD
Format: Kindle
This was an amazing book to read. I was trying to get back into reading and everyday I would read a new chapter and feel something new. I also realize that I can come to GOD because he just really wants to hear from me. Thank you for a great book. I will try to read the first 3 books

Amazing
Format: Kindle
I have read books 1 - 4 of conversations with God and I am speechless. At first I was skeptical could God really speak to us so freely? But after reading and putting into practice what has been taught through these books I too am having conversations with God. How amazing is that!

Incredible book!!
Format: Kindle
August 16, 2025 I confess that I have not yet read conversations 1,2 or 3 but this one caught my eye so I started reading. Very great book! I enjoyed the chapters on light and on giving, I really appreciate the candidness of Father God, it got me when he said “I’m not asking you to take care of EVERY homeless person… what I am asking you to do is to take care of one!” Father God then continued “if you take away one thing from this book… give to the homeless, buy them a meal, buy them a drink and give them some money. Ask them how their day is going today and just treat them like human beings! When you ignore them, it is like you are ignoring my son Jesus!” So good! I also love how father God said: “we are not asking you to do the impossible, just obey the commands and the teachings of my son Jesus, just be the light and love people” and I love how the Father delved into the details! I hope that this review helps and I’ll be reading 7 keys to be intimate with Jesus soon. Amen! Thank you Father & thank you Matthew Robert for writing this and God bless you sir if you read this review 👍🏿

State of the Art Book!
This book was recommended to me by my graduate school professor as being the most up-to-date, most inclusive book on trauma therapy that exists today, and that it is! First, it is written in an organized and coherent manner. It is extraordinarily well written and engaging which is amazing for a text of this type. It contains information on just about every subject that a beginning trauma therapist as well as a well-seasoned therapist would want to know! This is an incredible book and my only criticism is that, knowing how much I shall be referring to it, it is only a paperback and I wish it were a hardcover so that it will withstand the test of time in better condition. The price is extraordinarily reasonable when one considers the cost of most textbooks these days. I highly, highly recommend this book as a MUST read for every trauma therapist, or trauma therapist in training. I cannot say enough excellent things about the Briere and Scott text. Buy it. You will not regret it for a moment! In addition, after purchasing the DSM-V, I can say that although this book was written before the DSM-V came out, it dovetails with it extremely well, and is a perfect book to purchase after getting the new DSM-V if you don't already have Principles of Trauma Therapy. It is for anyone who is a mandated reporter also, as I am. Presently, I'm a doctoral candidate in Special Education, and find that this book will be helpful there as well. As a person who has worked directly in Special Education for over 11 years, and have had professional contact with Special Needs children for over thirty years, this book is a must--for anyone who works with children, teens, (or adults who have just disclosed trauma) whether you are in Psychology or Special Education, or any allied field that makes you a mandated reporter. The book is a MUST HAVE.
