REVIEW
Our past can cause us to become prisoners of our own private hell.
The hardest thing about writing a review is when you read a book that is so
close to “home." I’m a firm believer in… when a student is ready – a
teacher/master will appear, but in this case – it was a book.
Parallel Pasts introduces us to Cory & Fatima – who are so
consumed by their pasts it causes them to be afraid to live in the now. They
are each fighting their own private demons, and that’s one of the things that connect
them. Before they can truly get to know each other, they have to come to terms
with their pasts. Will they be able to move forward? Or will they let their
pasts consume their lives?
Proverbs 4:23
23 Above all else, guard your
heart,
for everything you do flows from it.
for everything you do flows from it.
Julia Blues has delivered a beautifully written novel that’s heartbreaking,
inspiring, and most of all honest. This debut novel has a solid believable
plot, along with dialogue that is rich in detail. The Author did an
extraordinary job of creating characters that will stay with the reader long
after you have read this novel. I really enjoyed Cory & Fatima’s journey of
growing, learning, and loving. One thing Author Julia Blues seems to do so
effortlessly is introducing readers to numerous characters and having them fit
together perfectly in the story.
I finished this book feeling a sense of renewal. Life is definitely
a journey filled twists & turns, but we have to continue to hold on through
it all.

not promised me sunshine
That's not the way it's going to be
But a little rain
Mixed with God's sunshine
A little pain
Makes me appreciate the good times – Walter Hawkins
