    5 Star IHIBRP Book Review: “The Passing Of The Night” By Joanne Van Leerdam

    A Gift Of Lyrical Inspiration! If there was ever a poet with the soul of a muse, Joanne Van Leerdam is she. Taking inspiration from one of the lines in her poem, “Muse”, I will say this about Van Leerdam’s talent: “Her gifts of lyrical inspiration”, Give birth to a wellspring of poetry, Where thoughts and emotions, Cascade into a broad pool Of thoughtful reflection, Where this seeker may find, Perspectives anew, Amid moments, Of deep introspection. So rare is the beauty of th

From A to Z, this collection, representing each letter of the alphabet, is less an exercise of her proficiency as a writer and more about her deep connection to the human soul. This celebration of hope, romance, and love elevates the reader into a heavenly dimension where the spoken word is the ultimate expression of the Di

    One Epic Tale You’ll Cherish Forever And Never Forget! S. K. Wee has done it again in “Whisper of Color: Spectrum of Color Book Three” as she masters the art of storytelling and reaches all new heights, making her Spectrum of Color Novel Series one of my all-time favorites—with this particular chapter standing out as one of her very best.
