Journey of Discovery: 'The Alchemist' Book Review
Introduction: I started reading books at the age of 17. I was so confused to choose which book I want to read first. After searching online, I found the book called “ The Alchemist ” by Paulo Coelho. I started to read the book for 10 min/day. After reading some more pages, I got more interested to read the book thoroughly. Then, I started to read the book for 30 min a day and even more sometimes. I completed the book in a small amount of time. Here is my review of this book.

The Survivalists: A Novel by Kashana Cauley (January)
Community gardeners meet doomsday preppers stockpiling weapons above a trendy coffee shop in The Survivalists (Soft Skull Press), a darkly funny look at how people form communities to care for one another amid institutional failures and scarcity. Set in a mostly Black Central Brooklyn, this debut novel from Kashana Cauley, a former lawyer, Daily Show with Trevor Noah writer, and New York Times contributor, finds humour in our hostile, uncertain present while outlining starkly different visions of the future—and how we might prepare for them. — Lisa Wong Macabasco.

A Book For The Better
When I saw this challenge appear, I thought that it was going to be a breeze. Talk about a book that changed me. Easy. All I had to do was pick one of the countless books that I’ve read and write about it. But it wasn’t a breeze. As it turns out, thinking about the powerful impact of books isn’t something that comes easily when you really put your mind to it. Sure, thinking of book titles was easy enough, but none of them seemed to really ignite that spark within me that truly represented growth and change. However, there was one book that kept coming to mind more than any other, and that book was Neil Gaiman’s, “The Graveyard Book.” I devoured that book. I read the entire thing in two sittings and I was hungry for more.

The After Series
I know what everyone must be thinking, how did a modern day love story change your life? Their are so many classic novels, self help books, and everything in-between. I've read many books in my life and there have been many that have changed me in different ways. This series however changed me in a way I never would have expected, and series I never knew I needed. To back track I actually heard about this series long before it was made into movies or available in book stores. It was back during the One Direction craze and a friend of mine had told me about this fan fiction on Wattpad based on Harry Styles. I tried reading it, but for whatever reason at the time I couldn't quite get into it.

To say this book hit home would be an understatement. This book feels like someone took the bones of my life story and went full force down one of the millions of possible paths I could take. Allow me to take you through the beautiful and heartbreaking story of The People We Keep, while also sharing with you the rollercoaster of my own life and how the two entwine.

Whispers in the mist
In the heart of the dense forest, where shadows danced and the air was thick with mystery, lived a village shrouded in secrets. The villagers spoke in hushed tones of a mist that rolled in from the mountains, a mist that whispered promises of treasures hidden deep within the woods. This tale was woven into their history, passed down through generations, a beacon of hope and a reminder of the unknown that lay just beyond.
