    • Hahah You needed Cliff Notes to read the book. This is good.;))

    • Book covers are meant to draw you in even if the book itself is rubbish.
      I used to plough through books even if they were rubbish….not now.I give them about two chapters.If they haven’t got me by then,it’s arrivederci.
      Our partners should be treated the same….lol

    • I have three books I would like to return. Is that possible.
      I must have missed something in those synopses.

    • So true! A 20 yr old boy at my local market goes on and on about the girl he is going to marry. They met on the Internet a few months ago and met up in person twice. You can’t suggest he slow down. So often, we think we know it all. I was going to be happy when I escaped my .

      • I really appreciate your comment, Paula. I assumed you didn’t like anything I wrote. 🙂

    Realities of Psychosis and The Lunacy of Reality

    The voices of silence - exclamatory silence! They vent what is suppressed, articulating what is disconnected.

This luring temptress that is psychosis...
