Read Books for Free & Review them for Fun

Hi, my name is Cristina Gherghel, an indie author. 
You might know me as Cristina G., the name I used to sign my books until 2022.

I have a proposition for you. 
If you enjoy reading books, particularly self-help and self-development books, memoirs, and true-to-life stories, please subscribe to my email list. 

I will notify you via email whenever I have a new book available, and I'd be delighted to offer it to you for free in exchange for an honest review.

While I naturally hope to receive positive feedback regarding my stories and writing skills, I understand that I cannot impose that expectation on you. Your candid thoughts and opinions are appreciated.

Feel free to leave a comment anywhere you like, whether it's on this blog or my social network profiles, which you will find at the end of this missive. If you prefer to reach out to me privately, please utilize the contact form.

A few things about my personality:

I am a paradox, and the latest addition to my personal lexicon is "pandoraxical." 

Why? 
  • Because I am an introvert who masquerades as a social butterfly. 
  • I may appear outgoing and confident, but in fact, I am shy and fearful.
  • Despite my outwardly bubbly and sunny demeanor, I have a remarkably quiet side that could go without speaking for months. It's no wonder that writing has become my refuge and means of expression.
Now, let's talk about my relationship with cooking and food. 
  • I absolutely love to cook, and even more so, I love to eat. However, the truth is, since I need to start earning money with my writing, I rarely find the time to cook. 
  • I find myself fasting more often than indulging. This lifestyle choice stems from leading a sedentary existence and the refusal to buy a new wardrobe every month. However, I am also mindful of maintaining my health to the best of my ability.

A few things about my writing skills and style:

  • I primarily write in American English, although I'm often tempted to write in British English since that's the language I studied. AI and various other programs help me maintain a linear approach. 
  • Since 2023, I have incorporated a lot of humor into most of my books. My intention is to make people laugh and share the emotions I experience—although perhaps not everything I feel, as that might drive you mad.

The genres that come naturally to me are memoirs and self-help books.

Main Focus:
  • Caring for others
  • Celibacy
  • Immigration and discrimination
  • Spiritual and emotional growth
  • Psychology as a whole 
  • Aphantasia 
  • Belief in the power of the mind, the law of attraction, NLP
  • Exploring the vibration of the universe and its influence on manifestation through visualization techniques
  • Incorporating principles of new thought philosophy and the concept of a paradigm shift

Experience:

  • Speaking from personal experience gained from various jobs
  • Intensive research
  • Applying the principles of the power of the mind, the law of attraction, NLP, and the understanding of universal vibrations

Additional Writing Endeavors:

  • Familiarity with novels
  • Publication of recipe books
  • Future plans for coloring book publications that align with the concepts of the power of the mind, universal vibrations, and new thought philosophy.
Every job I've had in my life, every setback, every illness, and every struggle (and I assure you, there have been many) has been a valuable teacher. I firmly believe that the lessons I've learned along the way can be of great assistance to you as well.

Ah, the funny side of my dreams, bills, and intermittently caring for my elderly mother. It's like my life has become a sitcom, with each episode bringing a new twist to my journey. It all began when I was just 8 years old, inspired by a book I read called "The Miserable." 
Little did I know that the title would foreshadow the challenges and rollercoaster ride that awaited me.

Here I am, decades later, still chasing the dream I never dared to dream. Writing has always been my lifelong passion, but reality has a funny way of inserting itself into the picture. Now, I find myself in the peculiar situation of needing to pay bills through my writing.

So, amidst the chaos of adulting, I hold onto my dream with a sense of humor. Perhaps one day, I'll pen the most hilarious memoir, chronicling the ups and downs of an aspiring writer navigating the complexities of bills, family, and the pursuit of literary greatness.

Maybe my real-life sitcom will have a happy ending after all.

I can't help but wonder if you, dear reader, have ever found yourself in a similar predicaments. 
Life has a way of surprising us with its twists and turns, and perhaps you too have experienced the unexpected blend of passion, reality, and the pursuit of financial stability. 
We're all protagonists in our own stories, united by the shared challenges and laughter that come with balancing our dreams and responsibilities. 

So, there you have it—a glimpse into the pandoraxical world that is my personality. 
Full of contradictions and surprises, I continue to navigate life with a sense of humor and an eagerness to embrace the unexpected. 

Will you come with me on this quest? 

Will you agree to reading my books for free and reviewing them for fun? 

Will you join me as I navigate the ups and downs of chasing dreams, paying bills, and finding the humor in it all? 

Together, we can embark on an adventure filled with relatable experiences, insightful lessons, and maybe even a few laughs along the way.

And if you believe that there are people out there who could benefit from reading my work, I kindly ask for your support in sharing it with them. 

Spread the word, recommend my books to those who might find solace, inspiration, or a good chuckle within their pages. 
Let's build a community of fellow dreamers and seekers who can find comfort and connection through our shared stories.

Thank you for taking the time to read. 
Whatever decision you make, I am grateful for your attention and consideration.
