A human history of one of the planet’s most iconic lakes, and the civilizations that surrounded its shores The Dead Sea is a place of many contradictions. Hot springs around the lake are famed for their healing properties, though its own waters are deadly to most lifeforms—even so, civilizations have built ancient cities and hilltop fortresses around its shores for centuries. The protagonists in its story are not only Jews and Arabs, but also Greeks, Nabataeans, Romans, Crusaders and Mamluks. Today it has become a tourist hotspot, but its drying basin is increasingly under threat.In this panoramic account, Nir Arielli explores the history of the Dead Sea from the first Neolithic settlements to the present day. Moving through the ages, Arielli reveals the religious, economic, military, and scientific importance of the lake, which has been both a source of great wealth and a site of war. The Dead Sea weaves together a tapestry of the lake’s human stories—and amidst environmental degradation and renewed conflict, makes a powerful case for why it should be saved.

A refreshing romance read after a recent stent of mediocre reads
Format: Kindle
Well to be quite frank, over the last month or two, I've downloaded a ton of free romance books, got to love Kindle Day, with that being said I kinda can hit a snag as far as reading a ton of books that are meh as in the author delivering something short and sweet and free. And this book, I felt like the author took time to invest us in the back story to make an enemies to friends Trope really, really work and feel flushed out and .... Hmm not as dimensionaless as I've been enduring.
Of course this book isn't free unless you have Kindle unlimited, which I do so maybe that's why I'm kind of lumping it into some of my Kindle day reads because I didn't pay anything for it. Even though of course I did with the subscription. It just felt refreshing. Now does it mean that the story didn't have flaws... it did.
That comes in the form of the sex. If we were to give like a chili peppers rating on how steamy it was. I will give this about a notch over Pg13 as far as how substantial and how much the author was able to kind of, I don't know, give us the eemf. I love the consensual stuff. It was great but it... I don't know, something just felt like it was missing. like how in the photo booth scene in this story describes a kiss. It could have been better.
But overall, I enjoyed the story

One of the best romance books I've had the pleasure of reading
Format: Kindle
This is one of the best romance books I've had the pleasure of reading. Every character, no matter how much page time they received, was fleshed out with flaws and backgrounds and personalities all their own. Sage and Noah, our FMC's, were relatable and lovable. The rivalry didn’t feel contrived, and the progression towards love felt natural. By the time Noah and Sage were falling for each other, the writing had completely dragged me, as the reader, along with them! During Noah’s POV, I was absolutely as smitten with Sage as she was, and the reverse rang true during Sage’s POV.
And the bickering! The way these women teased and taunted each other had me kicking my feet and giggling.
What really touched my heart though, and what will stay with me for a long time, was the exploration of asking for “help” vs looking for “rescue.” How asking for or accepting help, or putting up personal boundaries, doesn’t reduce your personal strength or worth. How it’s necessary and often a way of letting your friends/loved ones show their own caring.
Noah and Sage were both strong women. Neither needed to save or be saved by anyone. They met on equal footing and formed a deep understanding of each other because of it, which only enhanced their ability to lean on each other and support each other once they learned to allow themselves. In turn, that actually deepened their bond and brought both further happiness.

4.5 SO CUTE
Format: Kindle
Sapphic rivals to lovers?? Family angst???
I often wonder why I even pick up contemporary romance or dark romance stories because they almost always disappoint. Either it’s too much hetero nonsense or boring plotting but this book makes me think make it’s not the genre, it’s the books I’m picking up.
I am so in love with the main characters, I loved the witty banter and jabs between these too and also how they sweetened over time. The dialogue was too cheesy for the most part ( more on that later ) and reluctant working together in forced proximity was *chefs kiss*
The family angst was in perfect balance with the romance and felt so relatable, I loved to see the development of both characters learning to stand up to their parents. AND ( spoilers ) THAT ONE SCENE WHERE SAGE TELLS NOAHS FMAILY TO GIVE HER RESPECT AND LET HER FINISH HER SENTENCES BEFORE BUTTING IN??? Weak in the knees.
Weak in the knees.
The smut was perfect( SO MUCH EXPLICIT CONSENT !!! ) , but I think for most people they will want more than we got, especially when the last 10% of the book was a little.. drawn out? ( pun absolutely intended ) in fact the ending being a little slow and out of balance with conflict was one of the only reasons I didn’t give this a full five stars. My other nitpick was that a small portion of the dialogue and the carnival date was a little cheesy. My expectations got higher as the book went along, but once they started dating the clever dialogue got a little too cheddar for me.
Overall I would 100% recommend this book and I could see myself re-reading this one or picking up other books by this author.

Slow Burn
Format: Kindle
A distinct and unconventional enemies-to-lovers romance novel. This charming and gradual romance novel was characterized by its witty banter, diverse and well-developed characters, and unique personalities. While the pacing was somewhat slow at times, I found it challenging to maintain my attention throughout the entirety of the book. The storyline, though somewhat predictable, was original in its focus on the struggles of artists seeking self-discovery. The narrative explored relatable issues and challenging family dynamics, making it a satisfying read despite its predictability.

This is amazing!!
Format: Kindle
✨Summary:
Noah Blue, having earned a coveted full-time position at a company re-launching the cult classic Queen Leisah, anticipates reaching new heights in her career. However, there's one obstacle in her way: Sage Montgomery, a talented artist promised creative control over Leisah. Forced to collaborate, Noah and Sage must navigate their shared credit and competitive history. As they grapple with drawing together, a more complex challenge emerges — the unexpected journey of falling in love.
✨Review:
The highlight of this book for me is the writing of the characters. They are just written extremely well. They aren’t flat or surface level but dynamic and raw, well-rounded individuals.
I loved how the relationship between the two main characters developed throughout the book. Even though they were polar opposites, they had great chemistry and complemented each other perfectly. The slow burn, rivals-to-lovers storyline was amazing and not only developed their relationship but also their characters individually. Their relationship felt so realistic and organic, with both Sage and Noah growing and evolving as the story progressed.
The author did a fantastic job with characterization, making Noah and Sage feel like real people with relatable issues. Sage, in particular, was a complex and misunderstood character due to her unique way of handling her emotions. As an older sister myself, I could relate to her struggles with responsibility heavy.
