Five Tips on Writing Alternate History and Time Travel – by Sarah Adlakha…
on Career Authors: Time travel. Alternative timelines. Rewritten histories. It sounds easy enough, right? I mean, you’re just making it up as you go along, and since no one has actually lived in these alternate universes, who’s to say what’s authentic and what’s not? I learned the hard way, through years of edits on my first speculative fiction novel, just how not simple this is and just how…

Book Review…Midnight on the Marne by Sarah Adlakha France, 1918. Nurse Marcelle Marchand has important secrets to keep. Her role as a spy has made her both feared and revered, but it has also put her in extreme danger from the approaching German army. American soldier George Mountcastle feels an instant connection to the young nurse. But in times of war, love must wait. Soon, George and his best friend Philip are fighting for their lives during the Second Battle of the Marne, where George prevents Philip from a daring act that might have won the battle at the cost of his own life. On the run from a victorious Germany, George and Marcelle begin a new life with Philip and Marcelle’s twin sister, Rosalie, in a brutally occupied France. Together, this self-made family navigates oppression, near starvation, and unfathomable loss, finding love and joy in unexpected moments. Years pass, and tragedy strikes, sending George on a course that could change the past and rewrite history. Playing with time is a tricky thing. If he chooses to alter history, he will surely change his own future and perhaps not for the better. Midnight on the Marne is a fast paced story inspired by the true events that occurred at the final battle of World War I. The characters are very well done! The love, perseverance and the bonds that they create with each other are beautiful! I liked that this book had plenty of historical details and facts added into the story! There were so many creative and surprising twists! It's an intriguing and satisfying read! Definitely not your typical historical fiction story! Thank you Suzy Approved Book Tours and Sarah Adlakha for sharing this absolutely amazing story with me! If you were given the opportunity to go back in time and change one thing would you do it? #MidnightontheMarne #SarahAdlakha #books #bookreview #booktour #read #booklover #SuzyApprovedBookTours #historicalfiction #greatread #bookrecommendation #booksta #booknerd #reader #bookstagrammer #forgebooks https://www.instagram.com/p/ChFCkBNqdaB/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Midnight on the Marne by Sarah Adlakha
Midnight on the Marne by Sarah Adlakha
Usually I read more along the lines of WWII nonfiction and sometimes fiction. In receiving an advanced preview of Midnight on the Marne, the description peaked my interest. I am so glad I chose to read this novel which can be pre-ordered on Amazon. Current pricing is $13.99 for Kindle and $26.99 hardcover. May 1991, Marcelle receives a diary from an American, George, that she vaguely remembers…

Title: She Wouldn’t Change a Thing
Author: Sarah Adlakha
I thought this was a really unique book and I loved the multi-dimensional storylines and characters.
Maria Forssman is a psychiatrist who receives a warning from one of her patients, and while Maria has little to go one, the revelation leaves her feeling unsettled. Then one morning she wakes up as her seventeen-year-old self in her childhood home with no recollection as to how she got there. All she wants to do is get back to her husband, daughters, and unborn son, but now she has the opportunity to prevent a tragedy that occurred well before Will was even on her radar. Now she is faced with choosing to return to the family and life she loves, and giving it all up to save the life of someone she’s never met.
The dilemma throughout this story was truly heartbreaking. Maria was given an impossible choice, and it brought into question what our purposes are in life. If you discovered what you were destined to do, but it didn’t match up with what you wanted, what path would you choose? I’m not sure if I was surprised by Maria’s choice because either outcome would’ve resulted in some heartache, but overall I loved how the story panned out and I highly recommend this book!
*I received an ARC of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.*
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4.5 stars)

I received an advanced reader copy of She Wouldn’t Change a Thing from Macmillan-Tor/Forge via NetGalley, in return for my honest opinion. She Wouldn’t Change a Thing by Sarah Adlakha is a story about love and sacrifice. Thirty-nine year old Maria Forssman is very pregnant, exhausted from the demands of daily life and feels like she’s failing at everything. One day Maria wakes up in her seventeen year old self with all her memories intact from her future life. As Maria searches for a way back to the life she left behind, she’ll learn that she was sent back in time to fulfill a purpose that will greatly impact her future self. This was an excellent story with a great pace and gut wrenching surprises. She Wouldn’t Change a Thing is available now.

A second chance is the last thing she wants. When thirty-nine year old Maria Forssmann wakes up in her seventeen-year-old body, she doesn’t know how she got there. All she does know is she has to get to her home in Bienville, Mississippi, to her job as a successful psychiatrist and, most importantly, to her husband, daughters, and unborn son. But she also knows that, in only a few weeks, a devastating tragedy will strike her husband, a tragedy that will lead to their meeting each other. Can she change time and still keep what it’s given her? Exploring the responsibilities love lays on us, the complicated burdens of motherhood, and the rippling impact of our choices, She Wouldn't Change a Thing is a dazzling debut from a bright new voice.
