Review - It Could Happen Again

It Could Happen Again, Sonia Rumzi, 2011, ASIN B004TMB64Y (Kindle e-book)
This novelette looks at the world of domestic violence. It is not a pretty picture.
Set in present-day Boston, Truvi and her four boys are living with Jake, her boyfriend (two of the children are his). Noor, her friend and co-worker, is the recipient of several frantic, late night phone calls from Truvi saying that Jake is drunk (again), he has grabbed her by the throat, and pushed her against the wall, etc. Noor lets Truvi and her children live with her for a while. After some time, Truvi tells Noor that they are going back to Jake. Crying on the phone, Jake has promised to do better in the future. Noor tells Truvi that there will be no more rushing over to her place. If she wants to leave Jake, Noor will help her any way she can, but Truvi has to make the first move.
As the months go on, Truvi's normally vivacious personality disappears. She barely says two sentences to Noor in weeks, she brings her lunch, so she can stay at her desk, and not have to talk to Noor, and she starts wearing scarves and turtlenecks to work (to hide the neck bruises). One day, Truvi announces to Noor that she has found an apartment, away from Jake. Noor helps them move in; there are now five boys (the latest child is Jake's). Things are relatively stable, for a while.
Jake continues to demand his visitation rights, and the courts continue to agree with them. Bringing the boys over for one such court-mandated visit, Jake walks out of his condo, carrying a shotgun. He makes it clear to Truvi that he intends to use it. Demanding that Truvi open the car doors (everyone is still inside the car), Jake seems surprised when the police come and arrest him. Searching his condo, the police find a pigsty, a large arsenal of weapons and lots of Nazi paraphernalia. The police criticize Truvi for sending the children into such an atmosphere; she tells them, in no uncertain terms, that she had no choice. Now that Jake is in custody, is Truvi's nightmare over? Is this one of those stories that will end only when someone is dead?
This is very unpleasant, but very good, reading. The author does a really good job at putting a human face on a subject like domestic violence. It is very much recommended.

The Female Brain by Louann Brizendine Review

The Female Brain is Louann Brizendine's groundbreaking research on what makes women's brain different from men's and what are the biological and psychological components standing behind that difference. Louann Brizendine, M. D., is an acknowledged neurobiologist and a clinical professor currently heading the self-established Women's Mood and Hormone Clinic. The Female Brain is Brizendine's first book published in 2007 and followed by The Male Brain in 2010.
The Female Brain by Louann Brizendine is a thorough scientific study on female mental and emotional performance from childhood through adolescence and young adulthood to the post menopause period. With the main "sex hormones" such as "no cuddling" testosterone and "fluffy, purry kitty" oxytocin being the key characters of the book, the author blows the traditional feministic myth that bringing-up and evolutionary factor are the only "parties at fault" for the different mental structures of women and men.
The scientific language is smoothly moderated by playful and vivid style throughout the book thus making it readable and clear for understanding. However, this book from Louann Brizendine is not a pickup advice oriented book and has only an indirect focus on relationships thus only advanced daters can find it useful and applicable.
Let me try to mark out the essential points in a brief Female Brain review.
THE BAD
The content is too complicated material for beginner and intermediate daters. Not targeted at the dating advice market, the Female Brain is more of a scientific and psychological value. There is a lot of theory, and almost no practice.
THE GOOD
Through a strong research backed up by serious medical and scientific resources the Female Brain draws up a valid substantiation of what makes women behave this or that way in various situations. It will definitely help you understand a woman's specific reactions that you would otherwise consider illogical. This product is ideal for the advanced learners who want to overpass superficial relationships and shock the opposite sex by a unique "mind-reading" ability.
THE BOTTOM LINE
What are the brain chemicals to make men think about sex every few minutes whereas women's mind may afford a sex thought only once a day in average; why do women talk about three times more than men do; what's the physiological "key" to give an almost unlimited access to women's tears as compared with men's innate restraint? These and many more amazing facts are revealed in The Female Brain Louann Brizendine reading which will definitely shape a better understanding of any woman's sexual and psychological character. However, it's worth noting again that all these advantages will be accessible only for an advanced reader.

What to Expect When You Are Expecting, Heidi E. Murkoff

The first thing that my husband did when I told him that I was pregnant was to go to the library and buy the book 'What to Expect When You Are Expecting', by Heidi E. Murkoff.
The book dedicates a chapter for each month and explains the changes that you can expect to experience during each month, the tests that you will have done and pretty much everything that you want to know about. It is a great book. I have to say that I read it from the first page to the last one, but it is also very handy for checking a few things along the way. I highly recommend it to anyone who is considering to get pregnant, start reading it before and it will give you a good idea of how to take care of yourself for the pregnancy (the earlier the better).
The book also shows you different exercise that you can practice during the pregnancy and that will help you to have an easier labour. During my pregnancy I found that keeping active helped me a lot. I didn't suffer any liquid retention or swollen ankles and I think it is because I walked every day until the day that I gave birth. Walking is one of the best exercises that you can do during pregnancy, you do not need any equipment, you are outdoors, you can control the intensity easily, you can do it with friends, you can chat at the same time and even go shopping. And the best part is that it helps to your baby to put himself in the right position for birthing.
After I had my baby a friend bought 'What to Expect During the First Year' as a present for me. I have to admit that I haven't been able to read it as much in detail as I did it with the other one, mainly because once you have the baby it is very difficult to find time to read... so my recommendation is read both during the pregnancy, hehe. It seems very good too, there is one chapter dedicated for each month of the baby's life.
During my pregnancy I read a lot of book and I found many that I could recommend, but if you have to buy just one then I would suggest to buy 'What to expect when you are expecting'.

Book Review: If I Bring You Roses, by Marisel Vera

Award-winning, first-time novelist Marisel Vera pens an honest, heart-felt, often sad tale of an idealistic, naive Puerto Rican girl named Felicidad who goes to America to be with the man she loves.
The story, told from an author omniscient point of view, begins in the early 1940's in the Puerto Rican countryside and ends about ten years later in Chicago. It follows Felicidad's life from the time she's a young jíbara living in appalling poverty in the mountains to the time she gets married and moves to America.
Young Felicidad lives in a tiny shack with her parents and siblings. Her father works in the fields and can barely support them. At times, Felicidad must be happy with only one meal a day. Their living conditions are so deplorable, she must tie her locks in a bun so that flying roaches in the latrine will not make a nest in her hair. Her sister dies because they can't afford medical care. But worst of all, her mother is losing her mind. Unable to face the situation they're in, one day her mother climbs naked onto the roof. The priest, of course, says she's possessed by the devil.
Then Felicidad is sent to another town to live with her uncle and his wife, who own a panaderia. Though her uncle is kind and quiet most of the times, her aunt finds every opportunity to criticize Felicidad and treat her like a servant. Felicidad, naïve and good-natured, does her best to put up with her. She slaves in the panaderia and remains submissive, but she dreams of a prince who will love her and 'rescue' her one day. Years pass and Felicidad doesn't hear a word from her family. She misses them terribly and would like nothing more than to visit them, but she wonders if the feeling is reciprocated and, afraid of rejection by her own flesh and blood, she stays away from them.
One day, a handsome man walks into the panaderia and Felicidad is swept off her feet. Aníbal Acevedo, a man of the world as far as women go, is taken by Felicidad's innocent beauty. To everyone's shock, a few days later, he asks her to marry him. Felicidad is ecstatic, filled with idealistic illusions of happiness, but is Aníbal capable of fulfilling his dreams, when he has another woman waiting for him in Chicago?
Marisel Vera's prose flows beautifully. In a skillful, often blunt manner, she paints a painfully realistic picture of the jíbaro. In a way, Felicidad's story is a Cinderella story but with an unusual twist. The two protagonists, Felicidad and Aníbal, come to live through the pages, each one so very distinctive from the other. It is especially fascinating to be inside Aníbal's mind and see the world from his perspective, a brutal contrast to Felicidad. Their love story is bitter sweet. But most of all, the author gives us a powerfully sad glimpse of the jíbaro in the 1950's in Chicago, their difficult lives and tribulations, the prejudice they had to confront. Vera is definitely a new Latina voice to be reckoned with, and I look forward to reading more of her work.

The Heart Healer, By: Boma Akainy - Book Review

God gave us The Ten Commandments, and if you multiply those terse rules by life's situations, you come up with the chapters listed in Boma Akainy's book titled, The Heart Healer. In her straight-talking, honest, sensitive and knowledgeable style, Boma Akainy "Tells it like it is," without holding back on anything she wants to convey, nor spinning her words into more socially acceptable terminology. She is direct, tough, sincere and kind, while also being wise, loving, supportive and passionate about her advice to women.
The Heart Healer is postured as a book for women of all races and ages, however most pertinent to young African-American women. Boma Akainy has her fortitude gained by first-hand experience along with many interviews, all filtered by her obvious conviction of faith, and love of God. "With age comes wisdom," and "If I only knew then what I know now" are phrases which come to my mind as I paged her many examples of life's events which at times are confusing to all of us; but later seem so obvious as to what action or feeling should have been exercised. From explaining the physiological changes which occur to all women during menstruation to citing examples of feminine behavior in relationships, marriage, and work, each topic is boldly and honestly articulated with clarity and conviction. Even when it comes to sex, she gets to the point in a direct, blunt and unashamed way. I found myself in agreement with everything she said. Boma Akainy has a powerful way about her, that's for sure. She doesn't hold back any punches when she tells it like it is, nor does she mix her words. Her messaging is clear and straight forward; her main point, "Girl, take control of your life."
How do you handle a husband that cheats? Or a man that is bad in bed? How do you tell a mother-in-law to get out of your marriage's problems and situations; to mind her own business? What do you do when things are out of control in your life and what you want is wrong and the right thing is too hard to do? These situations are clearly explained as Boma Akainy provides a "road map" to guide you through so many of life's inevitable challenges.
Written from and for a woman's point-of-view, The Heart Healer is a perfect book to buy as a gift for any female friend going through tough times, even if that "friend" is you! Being your own best friend is one of Boma's chapters, and from a self-help point-of-view The Heart Healer is invaluable in reconstructing your life after some significant loss. Although a disclaimer of being "For Women Eyes Only" should appear on the cover, I have seen men also learn about becoming a better person by reading this book as well. Let's face it; it takes two to make love.
