When you’re Not Okay, But you have to be Okay.

Book Review: The War of Art by Steven Pressfield.
Picking up from where we left off before we got into holiday mode, I was on stuck on a crossroad somewhere trying to figure out which direction to take. I am still out here looking. I’ve even stopped a couple of other “pedestrians” that…
Book Review: See Me by Nicholas Sparks.
Isn’t Nicholas Sparks one of a kind? I'm mesmerized by how he has managed to do it over the years, one classic romance novel after another. He’s the real MVP of the romance genre. He gets it, and because he does, he knows how to pull you in…
Book Review: After You by Jojo Moyes.

Book Review: Year of Yes by Shonda Rhimes.
Guys! I found my gem! If I were to write a book, this would be it. And since I aspire to write a book someday, you already have an idea of which direction and style I’ll take. I just know that I need to get out of my comfortable space, live…
Book Review: What Women Want by Fanny Blake.
When I visited the book store, it was with an intention of getting a book that will lift up my spirits. You know sometimes you just feel low for no particular reason, it could be just a funky mood. Other times the reasons are lingering but…
Book Review: The Help by Kathryn Stockett.
This was hands down an interesting read, even though I took eons to read it. I happened to have watched the movie before, and when I found out there was a book through my good friend, I thought why not. From the movie, even though I enjoyed…
