Noli's Book Journey

image by Noluthando Dube Why hello there Bibliophiles,  I have never really understood when people would tell me that they just couldn't find the time to finish a book in a month; I have to admit that I kind of understand this now. The December period made finishing just this book hard enough, but fear not I have finally finished reading A Quiet Kind of Thunder By Sara Barnard.  First things first, I am sure that you are wondering why I picked this book? Or as I usually say how did this particular book pick me? Well here's a free piece of information about me that I don't mind sharing with you. I have always wanted to learn sign language since before I could remember if I am being quite honest. As soon as I landed my first retail job, it became more apparent;  I crossed paths with many deaf customers, and the need to learn became even greater. However my subjects clashed in University and I was never able to learn. Fear not there is still time.  Anyw...

❤️❤️❤️ to many many more great escapes

Such a beautiful book❤️

"Who has that many friends?” If you had the opportunity to change your future...no wait, control the ultimate outcome of your future because you didn't approve of the cards life had dealt for you, would you do it ? Well the book I just breezed through had a lot to do with that and then some.  The book I am talking about is none other than Jay Asher's &Caroline Mackler's- The Future of Us. This book has an amazing concept, is well written and a real page turner. Asher & Mackler had me at "Emma receives an AOL disc in 1996 from her estranged friend Josh, and they are some how able to log on to Facebook in the era of no social media networks, phones with the cords still attached to them, oh and my favorite, pagers!".  Having the ability to take a peek into their futures, they learn that their actions can ultimate...

Have fears or anxiety of any kind hindered you from living your life?    I can tell you that my answer is yes. The funny thing about suffering from fears or anxiety is the opinions that everyone has on how to cure it. Some suggest exposure therapy and my favorite 'just getting over it'. I can tell you  bibliophiles that none of the above assisted me in anyway shape or form. I guess the most important thing is time, I can only speak for myself but I would definitely put time right up there with my coping methods. After all the time I gave myself. . . a year and a half to be exact I came across this book The Power of a Praying through Fear  by Stormie Omartian. I am not really into self help books, I struggled quite a bit to get hooked on the few that I've read, but somehow I am hooked on this one. It is written by a bestselling christian author ...

A good day to you Bibliophiles! today I did something a little different as you can see! I have wondered about my sisters obsession with James Patterson's 'Middle School' books and today I finally got it. We watched Middle School:The Worst Years Of My Life based on one of James Patterson's books, I have to say I thought I would hate it but turns out in a couple of hours I would be blogging about it!  So basically this particular book and movie is about a character named Rafe who has been expelled from two schools, his last option is a middle school that has too many rules that he cant understand or come to terms with. According to my sister and according to the movie he constantly communicates with a guy called Leo. It is Leo's character that caught my attention , at first Leo looks like that friend that's always by your side, helps you make plans and keeps your head in the game. While watching the movie my sister kept complaining about how different ev...
