The Artist by Ed Vere

by Leave a Comment

When you are an artist, there is much you much do. One such this is to share your creativity. And The Artist in The Artist does just that. Of course, it takes a little to get going, having to travel far from loved ones and finding a drab city that needs some color to freshen up the gray, but it can … [Read more]

Stepping stones

When You take a Step by Bethanie Deeney Murguia

by Leave a Comment

When You take a Step has one small issue for me. My online reader copy had the shoes of the story in purple, but the images I have seen are in red. Regardless, when you are reading When You Take a Step by Bethanie Deeney Murguia, you ae reading a positive story that highlights the stepping process … [Read more]

It can be okay

Everything Is OK by Debbie Tung

by Leave a Comment

Everything Is OK by Debbie Tung is actually a 4.5 as the ending felt a bit pushed (as if she needed 200 pages so she repeated herself a few times some of  the concepts and ideas, but was just using different wording). Otherwise, Everything Is Okay is a very loving letter about herself to herself and … [Read more]

Subject Love.

Love at First Sight by Wislawa Szymborska

by Leave a Comment

Love at First Sight is actually a 3.5 rating, as I admit, I really did not understand a single thing I read. I even read it twice. Okay, I lied, I do know this is about lovers and chance meetings (or were they), but at the same time, the subtleties are what make this book a slow read. Therefore, I … [Read more]

Here comes the (fun) train wreck

Loonicorns V01 Bleary-Eye by Cedric Asna

by Leave a Comment

I probably should have realized that Loonicorns V01 Bleary-Eye was going to be a train wreck when I saw a cyclops, grumpy unicorn (I guessed it was a unicorn, the horn was a clue) and a girl with a horn. Yet, like wrecks in general, you just cannot look away. Or in this case, stop reading. After … [Read more]
