In a time when the world was still untouched by the rapid pace of modernity, a quaint village named Willowbrook nestled at the foot of rolling hills. It was the year 1923, and the air was filled with the sweet scent of blooming wildflowers as the sun cast a warm, golden hue over the landscape.

"True Biz" by Sarah Novic
As a Deaf reader, I've read plenty of stories with characters who have hearing loss. Who wouldn't want to read books that represent me as a Deaf person? But time and time again, I've been disappointed by hearing writers who portray Deaf characters as stereotypes. These stereotypes are often inaccurate and harmful, and they do not reflect the diversity of Deaf experiences. These writers leave me feeling frustrated and angry at society's view of deafness.

My Latest Obsession with Faeries
If you can even get your hands on a copy of it, read it. All my local libraries have it on hold for the next year, which tells me it must be good. My sister picked it up from a librarian that described it (Poorly, on purpose) as follows, "Girl kills a wolf and then a guy that plays the fiddle follows her around forever." Silly as it may sound, the premise was intriguing to us both. Tis the exact kind of escape from reality that we both needed.

A Step Away 2
In the heart of a somber and weathered town, a cemetery lay nestled amidst gnarled trees and overgrown grass. Its entrance was marked by an iron arch, a portal that separated the living from the departed. The townspeople spoke in hushed tones about the cemetery's aura, one that seemed to carry a palpable weight of sorrow and longing. Little did they know that the dead and the cemetery were intricately woven into the fabric of their lives, much closer than they could ever fathom.

David Brin's Earth
Title: "A Multifaceted Odyssey: David Brin's Earth (4/5 Stars)" Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5) David Brin's "Earth" embarks on a multifaceted odyssey that blends science fiction, environmental concerns, and intricate character arcs. While this epic work showcases Brin's literary brilliance, it occasionally succumbs to its ambitious scope, resulting in a captivating yet somewhat unwieldy narrative.
