It is a memoir that is supposed to be about synesthesia.
It contained some things that I was unaware of (types of synesthesia; some of the author's synesthesia actually disappearing for a time, which I've never heard of before), but was overall more just a general recounting of the author's life, who just happens to be a synesthete. I do not like the author at all. To use the old joke; 'if you looked up toxic masculinity in the dictionary, you'd see a picture of this author.'
He literally lied to his wife for at least ten years. I can't even.
Anyway, there are much better memoirs that center synesthesia much more, and with much more information about it. This one was worth reading only because it was short and easy to read. I still only gave it a 1 (and kind of wished I could give it a zero). I'm glad I'm done.
On to the next!
What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

It is a paranormal romance novel.
It was interesting but still had the same old vibe to it as other paranormal novels, was expecting something different, but all the same, it was a good read.

This sounds like quite an interesting read though, I am a fan of paranormal novels with some romance in them, so I believe I shall enjoy it. Looking forward to reading it.Mercy Kolade wrote: ↑23 Dec 2021, 08:16 Alpha's Temptation by Renee Rose and Lee Saving.

The last book I read not for online book club was Sisters and Spies by Susan Ottaway. I enjoy wartime novels, fiction, and non-fiction. This book was based on a true story about two sisters who worked for the Resistance during the Second World War and I found it fascinating. I would recommend it and give it a 10/10 for those people interested in wartime history.

10/10
A young adult christian read that focuses on some of the most sensitive issues in our society. It is intense yet subtle. I loved it.
