Why am I passionate about this?

I write what I see. Dark Fantasy has been the escape I have needed my entire life. It helped me understand hard topics such as war, greed, and loss. Working through a character's struggles has saved me from the darkest parts of my mind and guided me to where I can love myself.

The books I picked & why

Book cover of The Darkest Night

S. G. Blinn Why did I love this book?

Gena Showalter brought to life creatures that were deemed as evil. They were exiled from their home and forced to survive in a world they didn't understand. Each character has a unique ability and emotional journey that defines their future. Even if they have done horrible things in their lives, they still deserve to be loved. 

I found that those the world see as evil can be the key to saving all that remains.

Book cover of Pretty Painful

S. G. Blinn Why did I love this book?

The strongest creatures have tried and failed to fulfill their destiny. Rather than succumb to the fallout of their actions, they ran away and hid amongst the world separately. All it took was one glance from a stranger to turn their world upside down. Can love break the curse that is their existence?

I found that the bond of family, found or born, can create a bearable existence when all hope is lost.

Book cover of Dance Upon the Air

S. G. Blinn Why did I love this book?

Your choices do not have to be your downfall. The love inside you can be your savior. To have a connection with another is a bond that will keep us whole. It could be family, friends, or a lover. Never let another tell you what you can and cannot do. 

I found that the bond of a found family can be the strongest bond of all. To be accepted for who or what you truly are can be the salvation we need.

S. G. Blinn Why did I love this book?

A world exists around us that we never knew existed. When all you want is to be accepted, it is hard to find love.
