Critical Acclaim for Shadow Song
Lorina Stephens has proven herself an engaging author.
The (Hanover) Post

The book, Shadow Song is as diverse as the woman who wrote it.
Susan Doolan
The Barrie Examiner

It is often the case with contemporary Canadian authors that they have a tendency to punctuate their novels with long, psychological dissertations on mundane subjects. It’s as if they feel that each everyday occurrence is fraught with deep sociological undertones.
Shadow Song, fortunately, is free of such meanderings. It has a good economy of words and each paragraph contains vital information.

Recipes of a Dumb Housewife – catchy title, yummy dishes…. With this possible inspiration maybe families as well as individuals will try and get away from fast food and boxed food.
Matthew Uhrig
The (Hanover) Post

Don’t let the name fool you. There’s nothing dumb about this housewife. Or the cookbook. Peppered between some tried and true recipes are anecdotes about life and family and stories about the recipes.
