I have thought a lot about it. I loved your character development, the descriptions, the suspense, the love story, hope, drama, everything. I still have a smile on my face. -Nancy S. The Mystery of Still Valley: Thank you so much for sharing this incredible book! From the very first line, "May your Joy always be found here," it completely pulls you in. The chapters build suspense so well, creating this growing sense that Still Valley holds deep, dark secrets. They really stand out as the most mysterious and pivotal moments in the book. And then... Chinese organized crime? What a twist! The ending truly makes you reflect—Still Valley feels like life itself, where we move through different situations, meet new people, and each of them has their own story and influences. But when we try to go back to those moments, they’re just... gone. It’s such a powerful reminder to cherish the present, because everything changes so fast. -L, Ruez- The Mystery of Still Valley: I finished the book. I found myself wishing it was longer, I was quite disappointed that it ended. It was really good. Would I buy or recommend this book? Absolutely. Its every bit as good as the “career authors out there”. -Neil B.- The Mystery of Still Valley: I can’t believe I’m the first to leave a review or a rating for this book. I was mindlessly scrolling through Storytel and landed upon this little treasure ! An author I haven’t heard of and a book with no reviews online at all - I’m not the one to bravely go ahead and taking a chance anyways. But, I’m glad I did. It’s a great short story and much better than some of the novellas I’ve read lately! -Shruthi- Audio Review: https://youtu.be/hyj_UYr5jYY?si=rKl2xy7Wm1XjMB9S
