Ari Augustine (10 KP) rated Lord of the Butterflies in Books
May 4, 2020
Gibson's poems hit you right in the heart. They're raw, blunt, unyielding in their insight of violence, love, loss, gender, sexuality, and so much more. Some of my favorites include: Ode to the Panic Attack and America Wakes Me In the Middle of the Night. Both spoke to my own anxieties and I felt those two pieces of poetry really spoke to everyone at some point in their lives.

YA contemporary
For the most part I really enjoyed Darius the Great is Not Ok by Adib Khorram. This young adult contemporary novel was heart wrenching and at times heart breaking to read. At times I felt like the main character Darius was a little over the top with how sensitive he was but for the most part I was rooting for him to rise up. This was a great story showing the struggles of living with depression while trying to find yourself and dealing with the teenage awkwardness of growing up. I completely felt for Darius and could relate to a lot of his struggles throughout the book, especially with trying to see where he fit in with his culture and being the only one standing awkwardly to the side not understanding the language of his heritage. I really loved all of the characters and learning about this culture and I would definitely recommend.

Ivana A. | Diary of Difference (1171 KP) rated Death in Venice in Books
Aug 21, 2018
At first, it was quite boring. After that, it became interesting with all the details about Venice, it was like I was there again. I felt how every word of his is making my heart warmer. And then there was this love about that boy that I couldn't understand. Was it father-son love, or was it some kind of wrong love, if you know what I mean. The ending was expected and disappointing.
Bong Mines Entertainment (15 KP) rated Lost & Found by Polar Youth in Music
Jun 25, 2019
Polar Youth is a 24-year-old producer from Ghent, Belgium. Not too long ago, she released a lovely electro-R&B duet, entitled, “Call Out”, featuring WAYI & Lani Rose.
“In a way, you told me lies, in a way you let me go. In a way, you said goodbye, my heart jumped on the floor. Felt it all the way outside the door when you said you didn’t need me anymore. Felt the pain in my heart when you said, ‘let me go’.” – lyrics
‘Call Out’ tells a bittersweet tale of a once budding couple who experience an emotional breakup.
Apparently, the guy is the one who broke off the problematic relationship, and now the woman feels like falling.
The likable tune contains a relatable storyline, ear-welcoming vocals, and mellow instrumentation flavored with atmospheric pop synths and ethereal electronic sounds.
“The main inspiration behind ‘Call Out’ is something everyone has felt at some point in their life. Loving someone so hard but being pushed away, leaving you desperate and heartbroken.” – Polar Youth
Polar Youth prides herself in adding heart & pop melodies in electronic music.
Her recipe has earned her Red Bull Elektropedia’s Most Promising Artist Award, a remix released under Majestic Casual, and a collaboration with DJ Fresh.
For this release, she put the spotlight on WAYI, who is endorsed by BBC 1Xtra and Elton John, and 21-year-old St. Louis-based singer Lani Rose.
‘Call Out’ is featured on her debut EP, entitled, “Lost & Found”. The 6-track project also features Fortress, Trent the HOOLiGAN, Sangstaa, and ËMIA.

Sarah Redden (569 KP) rated The Librarian of Auschwitz in Books
Sep 4, 2019
I really enjoyed reading this book. A brave young girl caught up in the horror of her surroundings and seeking refuge in the pages of 8 books, which she carries around in a secret pocket under her dress when dispatching them to teachers. I felt my younger self could relate to Dita in the way she thinks and her love of those 8 books. A very heart warming book amidst the hell of Auschwitz.

A good read for any liverpool fan
When you think of the dominant Liverpool team of the eighties too often Steve Nicol does not get a mention. When you consider that in his time there he won the league five times, europe, the f.a,cup and also played as a pivotal part of the Scotland squad this seems surprising. This book tells the story of this unsung hero, from his start at ayr all the way to his managerial succeses in the USA. Its touching and funny. His recollection of the hillsborough tragedy is both honest and heart felt. A very good read.

Contains spoilers, click to show
Never have I read anything more perfect than this novella. EVER.
Colleen has yet to disappoint me and while Finding Cinderella wasn't necessarily my favorite book, Finding Perfect is definitely up there with my favorites! My heart juggled between hurting and joy, I laughed and darn near cried, I felt the swelling of emotion with every single page. If the title was enough of a spoiler, this is: I'm beyond ecstatic to see Daniel and Six get a happy ending!
