Gretchen Largoza | 1 comments Hello there!

I’m absolutely delighted to join this amazing group of book lovers! Books have always been a cornerstone in my life—places of learning, escape, and connection. Today, I’m excited to share that I’ve taken a leap from being a reader to becoming an author, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to be part of this journey with you.

A little about me: I’ve always been inspired by the stories and resilience of women, particularly those from the Global South. Having grown up in an industry where leadership was predominantly male, I wanted to amplify the voices and experiences of women from around the world—women who break barriers, lead with courage, and inspire change.

This passion led to my book, Finish the Sentence: Unscripted Lives Lessons from Women Around the World (https://www.amazon.com/author/gretche...), a heartfelt non-fiction work sharing the stories of 25 incredible women from diverse cultures and backgrounds. It’s been a labor of love, crafted during quiet nights, brainstorming marathons, and moments of pure inspiration.

I’m so excited to share this project with readers who, like me, believe in the power of stories to inspire and connect. I’d love for you to check it out and join me in celebrating these extraordinary women!

Looking forward to getting to know all of you, swapping recommendations, and having amazing discussions. Let me know if you’ve read any great books about women that left a lasting impression on you—I’m always eager to add to my TBR pile!

Warmly,

Gretchen

Robert Ragnar (robertragnar) | 3 comments Hi everyone!
Firstly, thank you, Vincent, for setting up this amazing community.
Just wanted to share that my book, The BC Bible: A Humorous Journey Through Scripture, Culture, and the Politics of Power is finally out! 🎉
It is a non-fiction journey through the crazy moments of the Bible along with discussion of its cultural and political impacts. The tone is humorous but with a serious underlying message about literalism. Subjects include the birth of Christianity, circumcision, celibacy, paleocontact, slavery, anti-semitism and many others. Also my own reflections growing up in a non-literal Christian household.
For anyone interested, I'd really appreciate an honest review when you're done - good, bad, or in-between! Reviews help so much for new books to find their audience.
Any questions, just shoot! Always up for a chat about this stuff.
Thanks for letting me share!

Rajeev Virmani | 10 comments 🌿 Hello Fellow Non-Fiction Explorers! 🌿

I'm thrilled to be a part of this thoughtful community of readers who, like me, seek books that not only inform—but transform. 🙏

I’d love to introduce you to my debut work, From Pages to Peaks, a deeply personal and reflective journey that blends spiritual awakening, Himalayan wisdom, and modern burnout recovery.

If you've ever felt the need to pause, to breathe deeper, or to rediscover your inner compass amidst the noise of life—this book was written with you in mind. 🕊️

It’s not just a memoir. It’s a mirror.
Not a lecture—but a lantern.

🪔 Why you might enjoy From Pages to Peaks:

It combines poetic storytelling with practical spiritual insights

Inspired by timeless Vedic truths, woven into a modern seeker’s path

It’s short, soulful, and structured to invite reflection—not just reading

If you loved books like The Art of Stillness or The Power of Now, this may resonate with you deeply


🌸 I’m happy to send a free PDF copy to any member who would love to read it. Just drop me a message!

And if the book speaks to you—your honest review would mean the world to me as a first-time author navigating this beautiful but humbling journey.

Thank you for letting me share this with you. May your reading continue to be a source of peace and purpose.

Warmly,
Rajeev Virmani
Author of From Pages to Peaks
