We Welcome with Vengeance - Review

-
Image
  I was offered an arc version of We Come to Vengeance by H.G Mura Lee. I was interested in the the futuristic concept and wanted to see how the author developed this world and characters. As I was reading there were moments that stood out  like when Sven goes to counseling. This scene was powerful because it showed that not everyone who goes to counseling responds to it. Even though this happens in real life in books this concept is not generally explored because its taboo in a sense.  Most books have this constraint where the author creates ideal scenarios where people who attend counseling sessions immediately open up and improve.  Rarely do books go against the popular trope of people getting better and explore the darker side side of what happens to patients who do not want counseling or respond to it. There should be more exploration to this side because mental health is an issue today and not having more books is like only having  Disney's take on The Lit...

Anderson Copper's Interview with Price Harry

       The interview with Anderson Copper and Prince Harry was a let down it was repeat of what other media outlets talked about. Copper did not take advantage of his early access to the book, he could have talked about new points but he chose to play it safe. There was only one moment when Copper challenged Prince Harry when he asked why he kept his title and if the reason behind it was for profit.

If a title did not matter they would not exist in the workplace to distinguish who has the highest authority and power. He is not recognizing the privilege  his title has allowed him...

Spare by Prince Harry Causing a Splash even before its Official Release

          Spare came flying off the bookshelves in a literal manner. It was released before its publication date and there was a rapid search for Spanish translators since it was released in Spain. Its odd that Spare would get released early and part of me believes it was on purpose. This book had been tight lid in terms of information which was surprising given the time and age where secrets are not kept for long since everything gets leaked. So to think this book was suddenly dropped out of nowhere its odd. I wonder if the royal family will investigate this matter because thanks to the early release Spare has received even more attention than it would have due to its mysterious presale and the excerpts being translated.         One of the excerpts that has come out form Spare details how there was a clash between the brothers over the Invictus Games. Prince William thought Prince Harry would make the monarchy loss funds so he...
