So I read How to Lose A Goblin in Ten Days
Jessie Sylva's "How to Lose a Goblin in Ten Days" is a delightful gem that captures the whimsical spirit of The Princess Bride while carving out its own charming space in the cozy fantasy genre. This is a book that understands the magic isn't always in grand quests or epic battles—sometimes it's in the quiet moments of two unlikely people learning to share a space and, eventually, their lives.

Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow—it was a phrase Mira had first heard in a classroom where dust floated lazily in streaks of afternoon sunlight. Her literature professor had recited it slowly, like a spell, explaining how time could stretch endlessly forward, carrying both hope and despair in its wake.

‘Wuthering Heights’ and the Birth of the Toxic Boyfriend Archetype. AI-Generated.

At the center of the story is Heathcliff, a character often described as intense, brooding, and deeply committed to Catherine Earnshaw. Over time, however, readers and critics have increasingly questioned whether Heathcliff represents romantic devotion or something far more troubling.

Review: Jack Thorne’s Adaptation of Lord of the Flies Falls Short of the Original. AI-Generated.
Introduction Jack Thorne’s stage adaptation of Lord of the Flies has recently premiered, prompting literary and theatrical debate. William Golding’s 1954 novel is widely regarded as a classic, examining human nature, societal collapse, and the tension between civilization and savagery. Thorne, known for his adaptations and original work in theatre and television, sought to bring the story to contemporary audiences. However, critics argue that the stage version struggles to capture the novel’s psychological intensity and allegorical depth, leaving audiences with a version that is dramatically engaging but thematically muted.

Company of One Mindset: I Built a Business (a Life) on My Own
When I started taking “making real money” seriously, I also started picking up more books again. I opened Company of One with a sense of fear—because I didn’t think I was strong enough to hold up an entire company on my own. That’s why, whenever I introduce myself, I usually say I’m a freelancer. But as I kept reading, I realized this book isn’t trying to teach you how to build a company bigger and stronger. What it’s really saying is this: A person can choose to stay small, stay in control, and still build a meaningful life—by treating their own life as the greatest business they will ever run.

Mary: An Awakening of Terror is One of the Best Horror Novels I Have Read in Years
I don't normally write a separate article about books anymore, but I felt that this book deserves to be discussed. I never thought in a million years that I would find another PERFECT horror novel, that I would consider one of the best horror stories ever written. For me personally, The Season of Passage written by Christopher Pike is my most favorite horror book ever written, and I think Mary: An Awakening of Terror is a close second.

[SUMMARY & BOOK REVIEW] “THEY BOTH DIE AT THE END"
1. BOOK INTRODUCTION “They Both Die at the End” is a novel in the Young Adult – dystopian – contemporary genre, first published in 2017. From its title, the book makes a strong impression and creates a paradoxical feeling: the author openly reveals the ending of the story, yet it still leads millions of readers worldwide on a reading journey with heavy hearts and teary eyes. When I finished “They Both Die at the End,” what lingered in me was not just sadness at the foretold ending, but a quiet, lingering feeling about how people live their daily lives. Mateo and Rufus made me realize that fear is not something to be ashamed of, because everyone carries their own unique fears: fear of loss, fear of loneliness, fear of failure, and most of all, fear of living a meaningless life. What makes the story so haunting is that the two characters don't die because they're weak, but because they live more fully than anyone else on their last day.

This Book Made Me Afraid of My Own Thoughts
I didn’t expect Intercept to stress me out as much as it did. I picked it up thinking it would be a fun, fast sci-fi thriller, something intense but easy to digest. And it is fast, yes—but it’s also the kind of book that quietly messes with your nerves. I noticed halfway through that I kept pausing, not because I was bored, but because my brain needed a second to breathe.

The Other Woman in My Marriage Wasn’t a Stranger
When I first picked up "MY HUSBAND'S WIFE" book to read, I expected a dramatic story about betrayal and rivalry. The title suggests something bold and emotional, but what I found instead was a much more reflective and human narrative. This is not just a story about two women connected by one man. It is a story about how people understand themselves through love, memory, and comparison.
