Fiji-Born Author Torika Adikubou Releases “Be My Witness: Chosen Faithful”
Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Torika Adikubou has published a new book, "Be My Witness: Chosen Faithful," a 266-page work that positions the reader’s life as a musical composition ready to resonate. The book, released through Christian Faith Publishing on February 4, 2026, is available in paperback and digital editions at major retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Google Play and the Apple iTunes Store.
Adikubou grew up in Fiji, raised alongside three brothers whose influence, she has said, shaped the boldness that runs through her writing. According to the announcement, that upbringing — split between the country’s beaches, an interest in baking, and time spent outdoors — informs the book’s central claim: that an individual’s lived experience serves as a witness to those in their community, whether they intend it to or not.
The book argues that people possess an innate identity and power they have yet to fully embrace, and walks through reflective passages meant to help them recognize dormant ambitions and move past fear toward what the author calls their "predetermined destiny." It falls within the inspirational nonfiction category, aimed at readers looking to close the distance between what they believe they’re called to do and how they’re actually living.
"I believe every individual holds within them a symphony prepared to be performed," Adikubou said in the announcement. "I wrote ‘Be My Witness’ to awaken that recognition in others — to help them see their life as both a personal masterpiece and a radiant testimony to those around them."
The book is published through Christian Faith Publishing. Readers can find purchasing details through the publisher’s website or at bookstores carrying the title.
Studio CarryOnHarry Perspective
At Studio CarryOnHarry, we recognize that Adikubou’s central premise — that our lives operate as unwitting testimony regardless of intention — arrives at a crucial moment in inspirational publishing. The genre has long emphasized personal transformation and individual potential, but rarely does it lean as deliberately into the communal dimension: the idea that self-actualization isn’t merely personal gain but a witnessed act with ripple effects. This reframing matters because it repositions the reader’s stakes. You’re not just claiming your power for yourself; you’re acknowledging that your choices cascade into others’ perceptions of what’s possible. In a landscape saturated with books promising self-discovery, Adikubou’s insistence that authenticity functions as public witness offers something fresh — a moral weight to the familiar call toward wholeness, reminding readers that becoming who you’re meant to be isn’t solitary work.

Dr. Leslie Merida-Gonzalez has published a new children’s book, "Mocha, the Ground Fairy," through Fulton Books. The story follows Mocha, a brown, fluffy guinea pig who attempts to fly using wings built from leaves and twigs, only to land, each time, skidding on her bottom, which earns her the teasing nickname from her fellow guinea pigs.
Merida-Gonzalez is a music teacher in Port St. Lucie, Florida, where she works with children with varying needs. She holds a doctorate in education with a focus on exceptional student education, a background she says shapes how she thinks about reaching different kinds of young readers. According to the announcement, the guinea pig characters in the book are drawn from pets her own children had growing up.
The book centers on Mocha’s refusal to quit despite ridicule from her peers, drawing courage, in the story, from her grandmother’s fairy tales. "Through Mocha’s journey, I wanted to remind children that falling doesn’t mean failing," Merida-Gonzalez said in the announcement. "Every stumble is simply another step toward finding the magic that’s been inside them all along." The publisher describes the book as aimed at encouraging children to keep trying after setbacks and to embrace what makes them different.
"Mocha, the Ground Fairy" is available in bookstores and through major online retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Google Play, and the Apple iTunes Store, as well as directly through Fulton Books’ website.
Studio CarryOnHarry sees stories like Mocha’s as part of a steady stream of small-press children’s books built around a simple, repeatable idea: a animal protagonist, a visible flaw, and a lesson about persistence. The appeal isn’t novelty, it’s execution, and that’s worth watching for in any read-aloud picture book pitched this way.

Abagail Lynn has released a new novel, "The Rebel," a fantasy adventure centered on an unsuspecting character drawn into a clash between two worlds where the kingdom’s fate hangs in the balance. The book is published through Fulton Books.
According to the announcement, the story follows an unsuspecting hero thrust into extraordinary circumstances as tensions between the two realms escalate. The publisher describes the novel as blending adventure, romance, and themes of hope, with the protagonist discovering hidden strength while confronting questions about sacrifice, belonging, and what it means to stand against long odds.
The paperback edition runs 846 pages and was published in April 2026, according to retail listings for the title. Lynn’s narrative approach, per the announcement, pairs action sequences with emotional character work, aiming for a story that moves between danger and quieter, more personal moments.
"The Rebel" is available in bookstores and through major online retailers, including Amazon, Apple Books, Google Play, and Barnes & Noble.
For Studio CarryOnHarry, the appeal of this one will come down to execution: epic-fantasy premises built on a "two worlds collide" setup are common, and the 846-page length suggests Lynn is aiming for a fuller immersion in her world rather than a quick read.
