Write It In Lipstick

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: Write It In Lipstick 📚

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
This fictionalized memoir-esque introduces us to the author’s experiences with sexual experience and family dysfunction. Capacity is about the author’s love for their dad even though their dad is unaware of how to love some parts of them.

Rage is about the time when the author’s teacher tried to approach them in the school parking lot. They punched him in the face and the author felt as if they had punched their dad.

Secrets is about a session with a therapist and the realization that the person who is trying to help you in your healing journey is the one who has traumatized you.

These stories involve mixed emotions. If you have suffered from a trauma in the past, and still not healed, this book gives hope that there can be strength found in vulnerability. Family dysfunction is not easy to deal with. The stories are gripping and you will crave reading the entire book in a single sitting.

Deferred Redemptions

𝗕𝗼𝗼𝗸: Deferred Redemptions 📚
𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿: G.E. Russell ✍️
.
.

🚀 𝐑𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰:
“Deferred Redemptions” by G.E. Russell is an engrossing collection that captivated me from start to finish. This anthology features four stories, each exploring pivotal transformations in the characters’ lives.

“Genetic Anguish” particularly resonated with me, especially if you’ve experienced living with both your father and grandfather. Watching his grandfather pass away was something the narrator wasn’t able to accept. Will he lose another loved one? Such losses leave an irreplaceable void that no other joy can fill.

Another standout is the novella “Somewhere Sister,” which I found equally compelling. Russell’s storytelling prowess shines through, taking readers on an emotional journey through the ups and downs of these narratives. I’m thrilled to have discovered this book.

I highly recommend it to fellow readers.
