  After the death of his grandfather, Noah’s life is thrown into chaos as he faces a  repressed past which threatens everything he believes to be true. In the course of  trying to come to terms with his loss, Noah must also navigate a difficult relationship  with his sister, Kelly, as they reflect on their turbulent childhood – when they were  taken from London to live in the Kent countryside following the breakdown of their  parents’ marriage. Set between the 1970s and the more recent past, Adventures About To Begin  chronicles a collapsing marriage as experienced by its children and reflects on how  memory shapes our decisions at crucial junctures during our lives.  It is both funny and touching, as well as a sensitive insight into British family life  during a period of great social and cultural change. I liked it and gave it three stars. Adventures About to Begin  by Allen Therisa is a touching and nostalgic tale that transports readers to the vibrant 1970s, where we join Noah on

Seeking to escape, he secures a one-way ticket on the opulent Oceanis, intending to make a dramatic and final exit during the Atlantic crossing. However, everything changes when he meets Diana. As their connection grows so do the peculiar occurrences aboard the ship, distorting the very fabric of reality itself. Together, they attempt to understand the ominous forces that threaten the safety of everyone on board. Everybody has seen the movie Titanic, right? This story is also about an unlikely budding romance on a luxury liner but that's where the similarities end. With a dash of horror and eco-thriller, it's definitely not the ending you'd expect. Ladies and gentlemen. This is your reviewer speaking. Prepare yourselves for an unusual phenomenon. In the beginning, I thought about booking a cruise. Midway through this read, I had to put it down to catch my breath. With every twist and turn, I found my
