🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“I’ll Draw an Iris on my Heart and send it to You” written by the author/poet Helene J Storm is an interesting read. It is a collection of poems. This book has political poetry and controversial views, emotional lyrics and life lesson literature.

A few of my favorite poems from the collection are: Independence, eternity, Remember, Sticky Note, etc.

“We are living the memories of our future selves. We just don’t understand yet why this moment is so memorable.”

The poem Remember is a reminder to all of us to make the most of our present so we can have good memories for the future.

These poems are written in a lucid language. Even if you are not an avid poetry reader, you would be able to understand these poems. One could relate themselves to a few poems like independence, eternity, etc. I enjoyed every bit of this book. It’s a short read that one could read in a single sitting.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
From Doctor to Guinea-Pig is an intriguing story written by the author Angelique D. The story is told from the perspective of Alex’s wife. Alex is the main character of the story. He was 44, a young doctor who died from AIDS.

When Alex was young, he found love. His wife and he married in spite of many troubles. Alex’s wife has always appreciated his kindness and big heart. Alex knew at a young age that his dream is to be a doctor. Alex’s wife felt proud when people used to say that they haven’t seen a doctor like him. Alex selflessly cared for his patients for free. He contracted AIDS and offered his body to AIDS researchers so a cure can be found and other lives could be saved. Alex’s generosity is something everyone appreciates.

Even though deadly snakes were there in Africa, Alex never stepped back from his goal of serving people. In spite of the danger involved, he kept on serving people. He was loved by many for his great humor. I couldn’t imagine how difficult it has been for Alex’s wife to bear the loss of such a kind husband. The attention and respect Alex gave to every patient is truly admirable. I wish today’s doctors were like Alex whose goal should be serving people instead of just making more money.

If you love reading stories about life, faith, one’s approach to death then get your hands on this book. This book is the author’s way of dealing with a loss. We all find different ways to cope with tragedies. If you have experienced a loss, get your hands on this book. This story will take you on a rollercoaster ride of emotions. I appreciate the author’s choice of title for this book. It’s a great read.
