REVIEW BY READERS' FAVORITE INTERNATIONAL
The book received a five-star review from Readers' Favorite International:
"Reviewed By Lesley Jones for Readers' Favorite"
"In Stories That Intrigue by Brenda Mohammed, Julia, a best-selling novelist, and her younger sister Stephanie have just landed at Heathrow Airport from Trinidad.
They plan to meet Sam Jurai, whom Julia met through social media, and who will work with Julia on her 24th novel before traveling to France, where Stephanie is about to start her fashion degree at the university.
Throughout these fast-paced short stories, Julia and Stephanie travel from London to France, Switzerland, and New York, where they discover the streets are filled with exciting and wonderful places and situations that threaten their safety.
Sam proves to be a valuable travel partner, but he holds a secret love for Julia.
Will he find the courage to tell her how he feels?
How will she respond?
Each of the short stories is compelling. It includes the perfect amount of tension and suspense.
Brenda has cleverly written each tale to flow effortlessly into the next.
The relationship between Julia and Stephanie is wonderful, and their dialogue and actions perfectly prove the support and care they have for one another.
Julia and Stephanie have the ideal blend of femininity and strong independence, which I love to see in female characters.
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.
I also loved the fact that the characters were from different cultures.
The author has a wonderful talent for creating characters and dialogue that completely engage the reader.
The stories are filled with love, exciting action, human vulnerability, and tense, dangerous situations."

RETIREMENT IS NOT THE END

 


Review for Retirement is Fun

When one door closes, another opens. The title itself is a quiet act of defiance. 

Retirement is often framed as an ending, a winding down, a time of letting go. But Brenda Mohammed turns that narrative completely on its head.
She presents retirement not as a closing door, but as the moment when a whole new set of doors swings wide open. That perspective is not just refreshing; it is genuinely transformative. And the way she writes about it, with warmth, humour, and an unshakeable belief that every stage of life holds its own kind of adventure, makes this book a gift to anyone standing at that threshold, wondering what comes next.
At its heart, Retirement is Fun is a celebration of reinvention. 
It is a book that says your best chapters are not behind you; they are waiting to be written. 
Whether you are stepping away from a long career, adjusting to an empty nest, or simply looking for permission to prioritize your own joy for the first time in decades, this book offers both practical wisdom and heartfelt encouragement.
Brenda Mohammed explores the freedom that comes with letting go of old identities and embracing new possibilities, from a new job, travel, and hobbies to volunteering and deepening relationships.
She also acknowledged there will be challenges and the quiet loss of purpose. The identity shifts and the fear of irrelevance, but you never let those moments linger in despair. 
Instead, you meet them with grace, humour, and a gentle nudge toward hope. This book understands that retirement is not about stopping; it is about starting again, on your own terms, even after battling a critical illness.
Books that actually celebrate the emotional and spiritual journey of this stage of life are surprisingly rare. 
Retirement is Fun fills that gap beautifully. Readers who are approaching retirement, recently retired, or even just dreaming of a different kind of future will find themselves nodding along, laughing, and maybe even tearing up a little at the recognition.
The book has a timeless, universal appeal that crosses generations. It speaks to anyone who has ever wondered if they still have something to offer, if their best days are truly behind them, or if they are allowed to be happy in a new and unfamiliar season of life. 
Your voice is warm, encouraging, and deeply human, and that is exactly what readers are craving.
The author clearly shows that retirement is not the end of the story. It is the beginning of a beautiful new chapter.
