BOOK: Tenacious AUTHOR: Caleb Thornton REVIEW: Qotd: Do you love reading short stories? If your answer is yes, then you should pick Tenacious. It is a short story penned by the author Caleb Thornton. When Matthew joined high school, he didn't have a very good start. His crush Carter Mitchell choked him half to death, knocked his books out of his hands, etc. Matthew never bothered anyone but still Carter and his friends were mean to him. Love is a strange emotion. Even if our crush mistreats us, we forgive him/her so quickly. Same was done by Matthew. When Carter invited him to his home, Matthew went to Carter's home even though just a while ago, he was treated so badly by Carter. Will Carter treat Matthew right? Will he return his love? The storyline is interesting. I was curious to know what will happen at the end. This short story could be finished in a single sitting since it is written in less than 50 pages. I had a great time reading it. I am sure you would also enjoy read...

Boo Who? By Teressa Hill Rating 10/10 Review: 'The Wildly Whimsical Tales of Gracie and Sniggles: Boo Who?' is a wonderful book to read. It is the first book that I have read written by Teressa Hill.  This book takes young readers on a magical adventure. A little girl Gracie and her dog Sniggles are important characters in this story. Another character of importance is the fearful little ghost Boo Montague. He stays at the Hocus Pocus Pumpkin Patch.  When Gracie went to Hocus Pocus to pick the perfect Pumpkin for Halloween, Boo thought about scaring Gracie. But the story becomes interesting when we see the ghost getting scared himself.  This is a fun-filled story. Children who love Halloween, adventures, parties, etc should get their hands on this book. Author has used a simple language in the book. Illustrations are damn pretty and the story more lively. It would be amazing to have more books in this series.

  #BookReview of #OrganicEmotions It's a refreshing read. Divided into 4 parts, the author has expressed her thoughts, emotions through poems on topics like state of mind, emotional vorte, clarity and purity.  The author's writing is such that it compelled the reader to ponder over. Some poems are thought provoking.  "Each phase of life brings valuable gifts of experience, to teach us self-mastery and transformative influence." Above lines are my favorite among this collection. It's from the poem Phases that I really loved.  The simple and lyrical writing style of the author makes this book more interesting. What I loved most is the interesting titles of each poem, how they perfectly fit and capture readers interest. Each poem has its own depth, its own emotion, that different feeling which we can connect to. Overall, it's a light, wonderful read that you'll love. Rating 9/10
