"The Awakening- A beautiful but also heartwrenching read. The imagery and descriptive writing is absolutely gorgeous. I love how the sea is described. It is a very slow paced book so as I don't read classics that often it took me longer to read. The ending did shock me I think and can't belive the ending wad right in front of me in the cover design. I shall read the short stories in this book next." — Aug 03, 2026 01:35AM

"⭐️⭐️⭐️Breakfast at Tiffany's: What an odd book, defiantly a character building book about the people and lifestyle in this period. Holly is quite the character. Neither loved it or hated it, had not watched the film before the book. Maybe I will now to get a better understanding of what's going in plot wise as it can be unclear at times." — Jun 05, 2026 06:42AM

“All revolutions have liberté, égalité, fraternité, and other noble slogans inscribed on their banners. All revolutionaries are enthusiasts, zealots; all are utopians, with dreams of creating a new world in which the injustice, corruption, and apathy of the old world are banished forever. They are intolerant of disagreement; incapable of compromise; mesmerized by big, distant goals; violent, suspicious, and destructive. Revolutionaries are unrealistic and inexperienced in government; their institutions and procedures are extemporized. They have the intoxicating illusion of personifying the will of the people, which means they assume the people is monolithic. They are Manicheans, dividing the world into two camps: light and darkness, the revolution and its enemies. They despise all traditions, received wisdom, icons, and superstition. They believe society can be a tabula rasa on which the revolution will write.”
