Review: A Moment That Sparked Infinity

A Moment That Sparked Infinity book cover on blue background

Imagine seeing yourself reflected in an art piece at the museum and discovering that it's been you all along. This scene kicks off quite the time travel scenario where infinite possibilities can exist at the same time. A Moment That Sparked Infinity by Dannica Mae Howell ponders this theory, plus so much more as Melody and Will discover what it means to belong together throughout time.

Book Thoughts

This story about simulations colliding into each other to create an alternate reality was as engrossing as it was intriguing. I enjoyed the main characters and wanted to find out how they became trapped in an ongoing loop of scenarios. The physics and psychology behind this book were compelling, and I liked thinking through all of the factors described, including the coding and the intended usage of the technology created in the story. What I loved most was how well it conveyed the ongoing presence and omnipotence of God in a way that was delightfully creative while engaging the imagination.

As a result, this science fiction novel was intellectually and emotionally riveting in taking readers along on quite the historical and futuristic journey. It helped that the main characters were likeable and demonstrated strong ethics while trapped in circumstances beyond their control. I appreciated the author's intention in writing such a unique story about the human mind, free will, and selfless love while exploring the perils of self-sufficiency, obsession, and entitlement. If you enjoy reading a tale with a balance of mathematics and storytelling, A Moment That Sparked Infinity is an adventure that combines feats of engineering with the feats of God's love and provision.

Review: Wes and Addie Had Their Chance - Adelaide Springs #3

After visiting Colorado, I can see why this series has won a Colorado Book Award in the romance category. It's a celebration of all things small-town and Americana with a charming cast of characters. Wes and Addie Had Their Chance by Bethany Turner is the third book in the Adelaide Springs series and it's helpful to read the first two books as they culminate in this story. This book releases July 15, 2025, so there's time to catch up on the previous titles if this clean book series is of interest to you. This is a disclaimer that although this book is published by a Christian publisher, this book falls along the lines of clean fiction, so expectations should be set accordingly. I shared the following when I reviewed Brynn and Sebastian Hate Each Other and Cole and Laila are Just Friends , and as this book follows those two, I'll adopt the same refrain again: This is more of a crossover title that fits the genre of what the author terms "pop culture-i...

Palate Cleansers

Partially inspired by summer and partially because I like eating, I was thinking about the role of palate cleansers between courses of food, notably sorbet. I really enjoy the reset that the palate cleansers provide, allowing for a richer sense of taste to come with the next dish. In terms of reading, I admit that I have had a lot of ARCs to read this year. I've read close to 30 ARCs so far and have another 20 or so to go. I'm by no means complaining as I really enjoy reading; however, I can attest to a bit of fatigue from trying to get in as much reading as possible to meet release deadlines. It doesn't quite feel like work yet, but I will admit that when the ARCs are back-to-back, it can be a little hard to continually be motivated. As a result, I've been looking forward to setting aside a month to take a break from ARC commitments and to just enjoy whatever titles come my way and to make more of a dent in my TBR pile. While I will continue to try to meet a few upcomi...
