The Faint of Heart
The Faint of Heart by Kerilynn WilsonMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A bit sci-fi, some speculative fiction, and also a cautionary tale of morals and how feelings and emotions relate to how we behave in life. The premise is that having a heart causes people to have emotions and feelings. Someone opens a service to remove hearts and/or give them something to dull their feelings. It somewhat reminds me of movies and stories years ago about people in institutions that were given drugs to dull their emotions and feelings. The ending was satisfying for the protagonist and her friend. It opened my mind about what we expect of humans in regard to hiding emotions and not feeling in general.

Currently I'm working on a graphic novel about 5 siblings who were moved from their first family to foster care and then most were adopted. Because of this, when they grew up they searched and found each other again. There were many ways their paths had crossed when they were young, and finally they had family again. It's a story based on real life, with both stressful and happy times and successful lives in spite of these challenges.
