From Co Dependent to Independent A Psychotherapists Diary by Jula Aniol

From Co Dependent to Independent A Psychotherapists Diary by Jula Aniol This book is an intimate and courageous memoir that opens the doors to the author’s personal and emotional world.

Sunshine and Steel by Skeeter Spidel

Sunshine and Steel by Skeeter Spidel✨ This book honestly surprised me in the best way. Sunshine and Steel isn't your typical small town romance. Its soft, funny, emotional, and full of heart. Ava Morales comes back to Maplewood to reopen her aunts bakery and start over, but life has other plans. Between nosy neighbors, late night scares, and a man who would rather fix doors than talk about feelings, her fresh start turns into something much deeper. John Steele is quiet, guarded, and impossible not to root for. Watching him and Ava find trust again felt so real, slow, awkward, and beautifully human. The chemistry builds like the smell of cinnamon and coffee in the background, steady and comforting. Skeeter Spidel captures that cozy small town vibe perfectly, full of warm light, gossip, second chances, and love that feels earned. Its more than a romance, its about healing, belonging, and choosing to stay when it would be easier to walk away. Perfect weekend read with coff...

Tut Yashar’s Domestic Silence is a raw, fearless, and deeply moving collection of poems that lays bare the trauma and courage of a woman escaping domestic abuse while finding her strength through motherhood and survival. The book reads like a diary of pain and rebirth, taking readers through moments of despair, fear, and resilience with unflinching honesty.

The Sins We Inherit by Carlo J. Emanuele

The Sins We Inherit by Carlo J. Emanuele in Blood opens with a funeral, but the deeper loss being mourned is an era of power and identity. The story centers on Costantino “Cost” Caduto II, a man who has spent years trying to distance himself from his family’s long-standing ties to the Milwaukee underworld. Instead of glamorizing the mafia, the book focuses on how legacy can feel like a weight that never loosens. Cost is not a stereotypical crime figure. He is weary, emotionally guarded, and trying to reconnect with a daughter who has grown up at a distance from him. After the death of his grandfather, Tiger Caduto, the old crew watches to see whether Cost will return to the world he left. Those tensions play out quietly—through glances at a wake, pressure-filled conversations, and unspoken expectations. The writing feels intimate, raw, and grounded in the complexity of family relationships. Scenes such as Cost giving the eulogy, or the subtle shifts between him and his dau...

Kya Aur Kyon Ke Beech by Sudeep

Kya Aur Kyon Ke Beech by Sudeep is a thoughtful and emotionally layered poetry collection by Sudeep, spanning many decades of his life and inner journey. The poet’s relationship with words began early, when during his childhood a storyteller blessed him saying, “शब्द तुम्हारा गुरु है, शब्द तुम्हारा मार्ग प्रशस्त करेगा।” This moment feels like the spiritual foundation of the entire collection, where language is not only expression, but also guidance, memory and identity. The poems observe the world with quiet sensitivity. In “मछली,” the tiny fish surviving in a polluted stream reflect how life continues even in unkind circumstances, capturing the raw simplicity of endurance. In “The Girl Standing on the Ledge,” a young woman stands at the edge of a building, calm in her own inner decision, while the crowd below fears and imagines tragedy. The poem gently suggests that the most important choices are often made silently within, not under the gaze of others. Sudeep’s writing d...

Tiny Scars, Big Lessons by Sarah J.H

Tiny Scars, Big Lessons by Sarah J.H is a deeply personal and powerful journey through the hidden impact of trauma. Rather than presenting trauma as only dramatic or violent events, the author shows how it often takes shape in silence through emotional absence, unpredictability, and unspoken wounds. What makes the book stand out is the honesty with which Sarah writes. She brings the reader into the lived experience of childhood fear, the long shadows it casts into adulthood, and the slow, fragile process of reclaiming safety. The chapters move between personal memories, psychological explanations, and reflections on survival patterns like perfectionism, hyper independence, or numbness. These insights are written in a way that is both relatable and compassionate, helping readers recognise their own responses without shame. Particularly moving are the sections on being seen by a teacher, the healing presence of a dog, and the letters written to those who shaped her past. Thi...
