This season has definitely been busy, to say the least. I bought a ton of bargain books, but I was instantly drawn to buy another one, from a self-published author, Briana Morgan. We took an online webinar together, Helene’s Instagram for Success, and I was instantly drawn to her Instagram. Once I saw that her book was out, I immediately went to Amazon and had to buy it! Trust me, it’s so worth every dollar!
The Title Blood and Water in and of itself is amazing, and draws your attention immediately. It gets your mind to start thinking of what could possibly be written in those 225 pages.
The story starts out describing the main characters. Jay, his sister Maia, and his best friends Melanie, and Sean. Jay is suddenly struck with this virus that has already killed half the planet. He struggles with the decision to tell his friends and his sister, not knowing how they would react.
When Jay finds out that his sister, Maia, is suddenly struck with the same virus, he knew he had to find a way to get help. Being only seventeen and feeling the need to protect his older sister, since their parents were recently taken too soon from this Earth, by this terrible virus, he knew he couldn’t die without at least trying to find some help for the both of them.
Their idea was to somehow find a way to get to Calais, where they heard of a doctor that might have found the cure to the virus. They only had transportation stopping them and a very long 3 hour walk, before making it to Calais and finding Dr. Devereaux.
With Jay and his sister at the brink of death, all four of them thought this Dr. is giving them the cure to this terrible virus. Running tests, giving them blood, and allowing them to stay with her, was just some of the good deeds they were receiving. Little did they know, that there, everything would change.
I would tell you what happens next, but then that would give away the dramatic surprise ending, and I could never do that. Let me just tell you, the ending is nothing like you anticipate it being.
I would/could go on and on about how inspired I was by this well-written book. It’s an easy read, it keeps you focused and makes you want to keep reading and not put the book down. Great job Briana on a great book, and I can’t wait to read more of your work!
I would definitely recommend this book to everyone! 🙂
