🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
Recently I got my hands on the book The Unwanted Gifts penned by the author Michael Fording. Alec Davidson is a photographer by profession.

He has one of those minds that can remember situations as if he is taking a photograph and storing it in his mind. Alec is the master of his own world but things changed after his meeting with a twenty-year-old girl Freya whose charms are irresistible. Mike, Freya and Alec spent an evening at Alec’s place. Freya looked at his photographs and asked about the models in them.

Freya finds out that Alec left his ex-girlfriend because she wants to try everything in excess but will Alec be open to explore the new things along with Freya? The characters are written well by the author. The story is gripping with a nice backdrop setting.

If you are interested in stories about relationships and exploring sexual intimacy then go ahead with this book. Because of the mature content, this book is for readers of age 18+.

🚀 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.
