Those who like to doze off into the world of books and zone out of reality. I would recommend this book to the audience the age of 13+ and those who are very interest into fairies. Other interests is Ink Exchange 2nd book, Fragile Eternity 3rd book, and Radiant Shadows 4th book. How I felt about this book is embarrassing because they have some lovey dovey stuff, and just make me felt embarrass while reading it. I would rate this book 5 out of 5. I really like how it romantic and supernatural which I very enjoy reading. Also, how Aislinn found out what happened to about her mother towards the end of the book, which was shocked to know, like my jaw was dropped open and my eye was ready to

    1) I liked how she starts her story with the emotional moment of the accident, that part made me feel dizzy and disorientated like her, at the beginning it was kind of hard to interpreted the text and what was happening at the time. The parts were the police were treating her like an animal really made me mad and I felt a little bit of impotence when hearing about how they waited so long to help her and they hurt her even more. I was actually disgusted but not surprised of the way the police treated her in the hospital, it was to be expected, besides she “killed” one of their own and on top of it she was a woman of color. I admire Assata greatly in this chapter, she is so brave and has a strong will of power, if I were in her place I would have cried and begged since the first punch to the stomach. I can connect the way they treated Assata during…

    The poem “I’m a Fool to Love You” by Cornelius Eady meant quite a lot to me. It made me realize that in my future love life, I can possibly come upon a toxic relationship. And it will be my duty to realize what kind of relationship it is and to get out of it before this toxic relationship causes hurt not just to myself but to others as well. I really liked this poem because it tells women that if they let this toxic relationship grow and make a family out of it, it can and will affect the people part of that relationship. For example, Mr.Eady shows how the outcome of his mother’s relationship affected him by stating the following, “ You look in a mirror at your young face, The face my sister carries, And you know it’s the only leverage You’ve…
