Hello everyone, welcome back to my blog😊.

According to Colleen Hoover, this book is different, it is not entertainment, it is the most grueling thing she have ever written.

It ends with us is about domestic violence. In the first chapter of this book, she establishes that there is no such thing as bad people, we are just people who do bad things. We have got a little bit of good and bad in us.

As the story progressed, she went to explain that domestic violence isn’t something we overlook. When it comes to violence, no matter how hard the individual tries to hide it, the signs will always be clear. It’s your duty to notice the signs and act on them.

Love and violence isn’t something that can replace each other. She warned us not to overlook violence in the name of love. Love cannot mask violence.

Colleen’s words;
Sometimes the thing that matters the most to you are also the things that hurt you the most, and in order to get over that hurt, you have to sever all the extension that kept you tethered to that pain.

After reading this book the second time, I realized that as humans, the way we judge situations differ. We tend to see the wrong in the lives of others but then we ignore the wrongs in our own lives.

There are times when we actually see the wrong in our lives, but then we make excuses for them, we are scared of making it right. We believe cycles exist because they are excruciating to break, but we do not realize that it takes an astronomical amount of pain and courage to disrupt a familiar pattern, and sometimes, the courage is needed in order to protect yourself and the next person from further damages.

On a scale of 1-10, I will rate this book 8. It’s a good one and I totally recommend it.

Warning: This book will break your heart.

Thank you for reading, feel free to share your thoughts in the comment session.

See you soon💕.

The Writer's Column ft Mayowa Isiaq

Mayowa is a writer, poet, and storyteller. She goes by the pen name The grey clover. Writing Journey Her writing journey started in secondary school when they all had to take literature classes. There were assignments where she had to write speeches, essays, poetry, etc. Her first time writing a proper poem was the year before her final year in secondary school for an annual poetry contest where students are selected to read poems. That year, her literature teacher told everyone in the class to write an original poem. It took her days to come up with something, but she eventually did. Surprisingly, she was one of the students chosen to read their poems in front of the entire school. Delusion It's dark. The starts are out.   It's perfect, or so it seems. Nothing can change it, or so I thought. Not long before I was wrong.   It's quiet, like a graveyard, pin-drop silence. Everything is still, no leaves fluttering. The winds wouldn't dare. No sound. The birds are mute.   I...

Introduction

Hi guys, Welcome to my blog. My name is Janna Onyemaobi, i am a Nigerian and i am crazy about books. I can spend my whole day reading. I know what you might be thinking, and the answer is no, i am not antisocial, i'm just someone who enjoys getting lost in stories. I am a writer too 😊. So here's the question, what do i write about? I write about anything and everything 😉. I forgot to add, i actually studied physiology in the College of Medicine, University of Lagos, Lagos Nigeria. For those of you wondering what physiology is, don't worry, i got you 😉. Physiology is a medical course, it's simply the science of life. So now, you might be wondering what someone like me is doing here. Writing is something i love doing, it's like my haven and i don't want to turn that into a full time job. I write to relieve stress, i write when i'm happy, i write when i'm sad, i write when i'm overwhelmed, i write when i want to and i want it to stay ...
