Yakshini's Love
Yakshini's Love In the ancient, mystical forests of India, there lived a beautiful and enigmatic Yakshini named Aanya. She was a guardian spirit, a being of immense beauty and power who watched over the hidden wonders of the woods. Her eyes sparkled like the stars, and her hair flowed like a river of ebony silk. But beneath her ethereal exterior was a longing that only love could fulfill.

Dune is Not About Oil
The prompt for the Book Club challenge is funny because it was David Lynch’s 1984 adaptation that introduced me to Dune. Dune was one of my favorite movies as a kid. It was one of my top picks at the library, besides all the Star Trek and Universal monster movies I could get my hands on. My love for the Dune universe grew in the 90s, with the books from Brian Herbert. Despite this, I would not read the first novel until 2017. Why, I am unsure. Since then I have dove as deep into the Dune universe as I can. I still have not finished the original series, due to a combination of work and school. Well, also after acquiring a copy of the encyclopedia, I decided I wanted to have the time to sit and read the series with that as my companion. Because if Dune does nothing else, it raises a lot of questions for the reader. Both in and out of the universe.

The Moral Labyrinth: A Journey Through “Crime and Punishment”
Reading "Crime and Punishment" by Fyodor Dostoevsky was a transformative experience for me, largely because it engages deeply with fundamental human questions—of morality, justice, and the internal conflicts that define us. Originally published in 1866, the novel plunges into the psyche of Raskolnikov, a young, impoverished student in St. Petersburg, who convinces himself that he is an extraordinary man, above conventional ethics and laws. This delusion drives him to murder an old pawnbroker, an act that becomes the catalyst for a grueling journey through guilt, torment, and eventual spiritual awakening.

Ten Writers I Can No Longer Read
One of the things I have learned after many years of reading and writing is that you are allowed to dismiss what you once loved; you are allowed to give up on writers who no longer speak to you and have set up a barrier in your mind to enjoyment of their work. I do not mean that I care that deeply about their political, racial, psychological or emotional issues (the list of acceptable writers would be incredibly short if I dismissed the ones who did not reach such high standards). I am simply concerned with what is on the page and how it makes me react, as Vladimir Nabokov once stated, “between the shoulder blades” (where you really do feel the work).

Summer '23 Reads
This was a whirlwind summer. Not that I did anything fun or exciting, but just a lot happened. Well, I guess one or two exciting things happened (more on that down below). I wasn’t planning on doing one big summer recap, but I forgot to do one for June, and then I didn’t finish any novels in July, and alas.
