“The book is narrated from the perspective of Maggie in an agonizing and hearty tone. I love the writing style. The narration flow is swift and steady. The vivid description of characters and the world-building create an environment that makes the reader feel like he/she is in the story witnessing the events taking place. The book is emotionally gripping. Readers will learn a lot from the story about marriage, friendship, and motherhood.”

“Gruber’s writing is powerful, while her narrative is a feast for the sense with its vivid descriptions of sweeping vistas, panoramic sunsets, and majestic wild animals.
…Gruber deftly weaves these two seemingly disparate stories together.”
“Gruber also builds poignant human connections…aptly incorporates the dark continent as the perfect backdrop – “a balm for my soul” – for Maggie’s cathartic change.
When Lions Roar is a delightfully unexpected offering that should satisfy readers drawn to central female characters that rise above their circumstances and transform to a higher sense of self.”
“Gruber’s book is a page turner! Her writing is so rich, detailed, sensuous, breathtaking and beautiful. When Lions Roar is a woman’s story of reclamation – reclaiming her voice and herself in the world, something that is so needed at this time.”
“You will not be the same when you close this book…get ready for your own journey to be ignited and fueled in this spellbinding story!”
“From the moment I placed my eyes on the cover, I did not want to put this book down. It was completely refreshing to me to read the details of abuse. His is something many women live through but is kept hush-hush even among the best of friends. Karen is not only a writer, but a healer through her gifted storytelling.”
“The rich descriptions in the book made the scenery and the characters come to life. It transports you to Africa on safari and awakens you to the wonder of this world far away.
This book transverses the human experience, as it takes us into some of the dark and difficult experiences of Maggie’s life, yet also swings high into triumph and hope. The final words gave me goosebumps. It reminds us of the importance of love, for ourselves and for others, and how it can cross any boundary.”
“Throughout this book, I cried and cheered for the main character as she slowly emerged from her former self into the woman she was created to be.”
