Sinossi

In "The Moving Picture Girls Snowbound: Or, The Proof on the Film," Laura Lee Hope crafts an engaging narrative that immerses readers in the vibrant world of early cinema. The novel follows the adventures of two aspiring actresses who find themselves stranded during a snowstorm while on a film set, unfolding in a captivating combination of suspense and charm. Hope's literary style is characterized by its vivid descriptions and an upbeat tone, which reflects the optimism of the Roaring Twenties. This work not only showcases the burgeoning film industry but also highlights the challenges and triumphs faced by women in that era, situating itself within the context of early 20th-century American literature aimed at young audiences. Laura Lee Hope was a pen name for the Stratemeyer Syndicate, a group of authors known for crafting series fiction for children and adolescents. This collective approach allowed for a rich exploration of themes relevant to youth, including ambition, friendship, and resilience. Hope'Äôs collaborative background contributed to a polished narrative woven with social commentary, portraying the realities of the American Dream as pursued by young women. This book is highly recommended for readers interested in the historical backdrop of cinema, as well as those who appreciate character-driven narratives about young women overcoming obstacles. Its blend of adventure, camaraderie, and the era's cultural aspirations makes it a timeless read for both young and older audiences.

    JUPITER RISING – THE CELESTIAL CHRONICLES 
    Book 2 of 6 The Centaur's Prophecy 
    This story is summarized as follows: 
    In The Centaur’s Prophecy, Dr. Minerva Voss deciphers a star-map leading to Enceladus, where the last Sagittari centaur, Chiron, reveals a dire truth: Jove imprisons Nyx, a void entity now breaking free. The Syndicate, led by Darius Kane, attacks, seeking to weaponize this power. Chiron imprints Minerva with celestial runes, showing her visions of a cosmic arrow—the only weapon capable of sealing Nyx. As the Library collapses, Minerva’s team escapes, pursued by Kane’s centaur-hybrid drones. The runes guide them toward the Horsehead Nebula, where the arrow is hidden. With the Syndicate closing in and Nyx’s corruption spreading, Minerva must master her new connection to the Sagittari or risk annihilation. The hunt for the arrow becomes a race against time, blending ancient mythology and interstellar warfare, setting the stage for a battle that will decide humanity’s fate. 
    This is the second of six audiobooks in the series, the next will become available in the very near future and I do hope you enjoy this second instalment. 
    I have worked very hard and meticulously to provide you with an enjoyable experience, the initial opening credit music which does run to approximately 2 1/2 minutes and prepares you for the start, synthesizer, bass and cymbals in a soul/funk form. The closing music ends the tale on a darker tone and at about 2 minutes and the same musical instruments, genre and industrial/fearful mood but with more caution added. 
    The story itself runs to about 15 minutes and is narrated in my own voice. 
    I do hope you enjoy this audiobook and let me know what you think, there are a lot more to come!

    A 2024 LAMBDA AWARD FINALIST 
    ""This enchanting, modern homage to Pinocchio reminds us anything is possible if we're true to ourselves."" —Cynthia Leitich Smith, award-winning author of Ancestor Approved and Sisters of the Neversea 
    Eleven-year-old Matteo has never felt like one of the other boys. He’s sure that will change when he joins the Blue Whales, the baseball team his dad once played for. This is his chance to grow into a son his father can be proud of. 
    And grow Matteo does, but not the way he expected. Instead, he starts sprouting leaves and finding bark all over his skin. Alarmed, Matteo starts digging for the truth about what’s happening to him—and finds that all clues lead back to the oak tree at the center of town, which Creeksiders have always believed is a little bit magic. As his parents start noticing something is wrong, the truth gets harder to hide—and Matteo makes some surprising discoveries about himself, his hometown, and his entire family tree. 
    From Michael Leali, author of The Civil War of Amos Abernathy, this earnest deconstruction of what it means to be a “real boy” is full of humor and heart, and a surefire home run for readers of Mark Oshiro, Anne Ursu, and Katherine Applegate.
