Story about the need to
move on, about the love, courage and will, January 12, 2014
By
“Olga Soaje with “Twelve Houses” made a touching story
about love and difficulty to move on when we lose someone who was everything to
us.”
“Her literary style is beautiful, she uses nice and compassionate sentences
that tell a story about the inevitable changes, no matter how difficult they
may be, through which this women must go through in order to continue on
living, primarily for her, but other close persons as well.
Therefore her novel can be primarily recommended to all those who found
themselves in similar situation, having lost their dear ones and seeking the
strength to continue to live on, not knowing where and how to proceed.”
“Olga Soaje with her novel gave more answers than most
self-help literature did, her novel at the same time being courageous and
emotional, and the message that no matter how hard it is we have to keep going
for ourselves and others that love and need us, touches deep into the heart.”

"coming of age" book, or a "coming to terms with life"
book, if you prefer.”

bed, if you want to live in another life for a while, and know that everything

A Perfect Journey, January 11, 2014
By
“Twelve Houses is an inspirational story; a self-help manual if needed;
a compassionate look on loneliness and grief after the love of one's life
passes away. Love comes in different ways. Somewhere hope waits patiently in
the corner. And friendship always shines when expected the least. Sometimes love
can only be exposed when the Twelve Houses in everyone's cards is dramatically
shaken by an event like the death of a loved-one and life, as it was
established in a cozy comfort zone, is shattered. Only then the different kinds
of love is rediscovered. Love has a different name for the twelve different
houses in everyone's life.”
“An easy, gentle, fast read with an uplifting ambiance. Well-written. It is a dignified journey.”

feelings will overflow Inspiring and perfectly told.”
Good writing, solid
characters, January 11,
2014
By
“With good writing, solid characters, and a keen sense of detail, Twelve
Houses is a novel that will appeal to many people. I thought, since the protagonist
is so much older than I am, and the topic is rather sad at first, it wouldn’t
appeal to me, but I found myself rooting for Amelia, her personal growth, every
minor victory, and feeling for her as if she was a long lost relative. So even
if you don’t think this might be for you, at first, it’s worth giving it a
shot.”
