This is by far going to be the most difficult review to write, to date, for me because it's so hard to review without giving away a major part of what makes this book so good, & I refuse! My Annihilation by Fuminori Nakamura Category – Japanese Adult Noir / Mystery Crime Thriller Length –... Continue Reading →

Book Review, Catch Up: Part 6
Silence #1 by Natasha Preston This book is a really quick one, about 200 pages but the subject is heavy. My issues with the book are 1st that the story felt rushed, 2nd the sudden change in pov & 3rd the subject is more so insinuated. Where the editors were, yo no se, but I... Continue Reading →
Book Review, Catch Up: Part 3
Girls of Paper and Fire #1 by Natasha Ngan I couldn't put it down! I need this book series to become a tv series expeditiously!

But she's silent as fear becomes doubt. What is there really to fear? It's unclear. Her heart is aching, breaking for herself.... Continue Reading →

What would I do differently... & who would I be consequently. This is kind of a loaded question. One that I'll admit has become a bit of an obsession. What would I do differently... & would I still be ME? My choices & decisions have shaped me for the better or worse. Some decisions... Continue Reading →

It feels like her spark is being muted. Like her flame is being diluted. She is slowly dying, wilting like a rose. Pulling away from the light and hiding in the shadow. Can her voice still be heard? Is her silence preferred? Has she become invisible? Is she still fixable? Although she has partially... Continue Reading →
