The conversational style of writing connects well with readers, making it easy for them to understand her journey.

https://readersfavorite.com/book-review/revenge-of-zeeka

 EXTRACT OF REVIEW

Revenge of Zeeka, by Brenda Mohammed, is a one-of-a-kind novella trilogy that delivers an incredible story guaranteed to give readers an absolute sci-fi treat. I especially liked how Brenda used current events as the pivotal point from which to build this amazing sci-fi horror. This made the story even more relatable. More importantly, however, I admired how she owned her story and created this captivating version of events. She captured with amazing depth the setting, characters, plot, and emotions in such few words. If you are looking for a thrilling short read, this fast-paced, sci-fi action novella will give you the time of your life.

Stories That Intrigue by Brenda Mohammed is the perfect book for anyone who loves to travel, as the cities throughout are described in superb detail.
You get a sense of the culture and atmosphere in each of the places they visit.

The author has a wonderful talent for creating characters and dialogue that completely engage the reader.

 HOW TO WRITE FOR SUCCESS - Self-Help

https://readersfavorite.com/book-review/how-to-write-for-success

 EXTRACT OF REVIEW

“If you are now getting into writing, read this book before you begin. The ideas generated will be of great help to you as Brenda uses her own experiences, as she said, from her trials and errors in her writing journey. You will learn a lot from the Questions and Answers Segment of the book. I did.
The courage and creativity of writing a book are only surpassed by the eager willingness of those more experienced than we to take the time to offer their wisdom.

 MEMOIRS OF DR. ANDREW MOONIR KHAN

https://readersfavorite.com/book-review/memoirs-of-dr-andrew-moonir-khan

 EXTRACT OF REVIEW

This biography is well-researched, and the author allows the subject to speak for himself through the narrative by referencing Dr. Khan's own memoirs. The writing is beautiful, journalistic, and it is enriched by the social commentaries and historical references that allow readers vivid glimpses of what life was like in the first half of the twentieth century. The setting comes out clearly, and while the reader gets a clear picture of locales and places, the author catches the soul of the people in a brilliant way

 BARRY HOLMES MYSTERIES

https://readersfavorite.com/book-review/barry-holmes-mysteries

EXTRACT OF REVIEW

 I found the stories simple, but the plots unusual. From the beginning, the author seizes the reader's interest and draws the reader into the lives of her characters and the beautiful Caribbean Islands. Each story holds all the elements of a good mystery novel: well-rounded characters, a solid plot, and twists that unfold as the crimes are solved. The author is known for her diverse interests and writing abilities, which come out in her stories. I enjoyed reading this book and look forward to other Barry Holmes mysteries." 

CHOSEN BY THE CREATOR

https://readersfavorite.com/book-review/chosen-by-the-creator

 EXTRACT OF REVIEW

For any newcomer to the Bible, Mohammed's clear, simple explanation of each book's primary focus is illuminating.
Her earnest and heartfelt urging that "all God wants from us is obedience" is a resounding call to us to listen to the word of God and to obey. In short, Chosen by the Creator: Bible Stories is a wonderful supplement to the Bible, although, as Mohammed clearly states, it is certainly no replacement for it.

Five- Star Reviews for 'How to Write for Success: Best Writing Advice I received."


The Book, How To Write for Success: Best Writing Advice I Received was officially launched on 1st December 2017 and already got four five-star reviews.


One review was on Goodreads and the others on Amazon.
1. Goodreads - This book, by experienced author Brenda Mohammed, is an excellent 101 for any aspiring author particularly those who choose to self-publish.
I say 101, but there are things within the pages that contain nuggets of information even for the more experienced self-published author.
It is a 101 really as it does not pretend, and I'm sure it wasn't the author's intention, for it to be a full-blown treatise on writing, publishing and marketing your book. But she does cover all the essentials.
It should be essential reading for all aspiring authors and is packed full of sound advice.

2. An excellent in-depth guide on how to structure your story!
on December 1, 2017
Format: Kindle Edition
I was fortunate to receive a special preview of this book. There are many 'how to write' books out there, but I don't think you will find many as detailed as this one. Each author will have a process, and I think there is something to be said for how it was done in the old days. Think about Jane Austen and her writing desk, or Stephen King and his creaky old typewriter.
Writing a book on a computer requires a different skill set and it is here that the author excels, showing the novice to more experienced writers how they may structure their book, fine-tuning it with excellent sections on character development, plot structure and more.
At 156 pages, it is not a quick read - one needs to absorb the information before moving on. Successive re-reads would be recommended, otherwise, you won't know the material well enough.
A welcome addition to the many 'how to books' out there and one that deserves to do well in its own right.

3.A Comprehensive Guide to Writing and Publishing Your Book. A Must-Have for All Writers!
December 1, 2017
Format: Kindle Edition
If you are thinking of writing a book but don't know where to start, then this book is the one for you. It's a comprehensive guide on all aspects of the process from picking your topic, deciding on your cover to how to sell your book once it's out there in the market place. I found many interesting facts and tips here and jotted them down as I went along. This is a book to keep and refer to on a continual basis. Well worth buying and a must-have for all writers!

4.A Welcome Delight!!!!

This book is an encouragement for all of us. It shows that no matter what the tasks may be, we can concur it. I especially liked the part where Mohammed wrote that we are all winners. This book not only reveals secrets about how to be successful but it's filled with heart and a work of love. Great advice from someone who knows.

Thank you, reviewers,for taking the time to write these reviews.
