"Sense of Home by NZ Kaminsky is an emotionally interwoven tale of literary fiction and mystical realism that beautifully explores themes of resilience, loss, family, and inner strength. The author does a great job of vividly expressing the experiences of Tyra, the young protagonist. I felt as if I was experiencing every mystical event through her eyes. The key theme is about losing one's homeland, both internally and literally, and having to rediscover one's sense of belonging all over again. Through dreams that merge reality and the supernatural world, this story paints a clear picture of the profound impact of grief and estrangement on a person's life. It is a reminder to readers that inner hurt can sometimes reshape a person's identity and even transform that individual from within. This compelling book is ideally suited for readers who enjoy reflective-style storytelling with a trace of the surreal. I fell in love with it, and you will, too.
In NZ Kaminsky's Sense of Home, young Tyra’s journey starts in calamity when dangerous beasts destroy her tranquil life in Azure. Ripped away from her once vibrant homeland, Tyra and her family become nomads, forced to survive in harsh, foreign lands and towns like Marigold and Moonvine. As they travel to these bleak lands, Tyra grapples with loss and estrangement. Slowly, the world begins to feel less like her home. Forbidden books and supernatural beings offer her a path forward, and in time, she discovers a magical doorway to the unknown. As Tyra matures throughout the story, her ability to travel to enchanted worlds increases, mirroring her inner turmoil and hopes to regain her sense of identity and meaning. Through dreamscapes and inner reflections, she gradually uncovers her true power, which has been dormant inside her all along. But is this power strong enough to fully heal her and guide her to where she ultimately belongs?"
