Paperback 

Nearly eight billion people inhabit this world. Every one of them has a story to tell, and each story is unique. In this book, Bombay to Brew City: Reflections of a Cheesehead from India, Balaraman (Raman) Kalyanaraman tells his story. He offers a smorgasbord of his views on growing up in India, coming to America, becoming a football fan (particularly the Alabama Crimson Tide and Green Bay Packers), working in biomedical research (including cancer and Parkinson’s and other neurological diseases), philosophy, race relations, exercise, and nutrition, as well as life lessons and keys to achieving one’s personal best.

People all over the world, and from all walks of life, at some point may contemplate their purpose; some of them have great ideas but don’t know whether to act on them or how to take them to the next level. Raman shares his story with the hope that it will lift such people up and help them realize their potential. Raman started his research career fearing failure, rejection, embarrassment, and so forth, mainly worrying that his research was not creative. Later, he realized that by focusing on and building ideas around his strengths, he was able to overcome his “creative fear” and achieve his personal best. Raman believes that adopting such a mindset will allow everyone to achieve success.

Author Balaraman “Raman” Kalyanaraman, PhD, is a scientist, professor, and former chair of the Department of Biophysics at the Medical College of Wisconsin. He has authored more than 400 research articles and over sixty reviews and book chapters on topics ranging from electron paramagnetic resonance to Parkinson’s disease to cancer. Bombay to Brew City: Reflections of a Cheesehead from India is Raman’s first memoir, wherein he shares—among other things—funny quips and insights learned along his professional journey to becoming a world-renowned researcher and expert on the fundamental biochemistry of free radicals.

A Beta Worth Rooting For
Format: Kindle
In Spare, Violet Fox flips the omegaverse on its head, giving us a Beta heroine determined to make her mark. Joining the Beta Trials to support her sick father, she's thrown into a pack that doesn't want her, especially the possessive Alphas. But here's the twist: their sweet Omega turns out to be her scent match. Cue the angst, forbidden tension, and a slow-burn romance that will make your heart ache in the best way. Violet Fox delivers an emotional, refreshing take on the genre, proving Betas aren't "spares." They're stars.

Beta, Alpha, Omega oh my!
Format: Kindle
Omegas are precious and given to Alphas & their packs... but the Betas want in too. To this end, the Beta government is rolling out its trial of assigning a Beta to each Alpha-Omega pack. But forcing a Beta into a pack where they are not wanted will not end well... Of course, no one expected the Omega to fall for the assigned Beta. Great read and cliffhanger

A familiar story, just with…..less.
Format: Kindle
So, as other reviewers make clear, this is very similar to Pack Darling and The Beta. It’s much closer aligned with The Beta, in plot and maybe more like Pack Darling with characters. That being said, I don’t hate this…..but it wasn’t great either. It’s both books mentioned but just….less. Less angst, less emotion, less feeling. The plot feels very half fleshed out, and the “bad guy” feels underwhelming. I didn’t really feel any real emotions from and of the male leads, except maybe Oliver. The others fell sorta flat for me. And Mika makes herself out to be this big bad ass straight outta training and then we never see it from here again with the one fitting room incident as the exception. SPOILER: The whole, “Oh, I’m actually probably an Omega, but I don’t wanna be but I do actually wanna be but no one can ever know my secret that I do nothing to hide “ thing fell so flat. She never commutes to believing she was secretly an omega, but also mentions her “secret” a lot. It just felt so manufactured. I’m intrigued enough to read part 2 and see how the author closes everything out, but this is not one I’ll recommend or ever come back to.

Good start to a series
Format: Kindle
I delayed reading the series for reasons I don’t remember. But my TBR list is huge so I thought I’d take a shot of this and I was pleasantly surprised. I didn’t think the blurb about it was anything special. But it was a very good book. It took some interesting twists and turns. I am so glad the second book is already out. Because I would not have waited patiently. Very slow burn but good storyline. 🔥🔥/5

A good read
Format: Kindle
Multiple points of view. 3 Alpha men and an Omega male. She is a Beta in training for a new program placing betas in Alpha/Omega packs. Mila is only doing the program for the money to take care of her dad. She wasn't expecting to fall for a pack but when she sees this packs Omega she is done for. There is just something about him. His Alphas are good looking as well. Too bad she is hiding a secret and their government is acting shady. I liked it and can't wait to see where their story goes.
