book reccomendations – Page 3

Woah! Halloween is here already. I recently returned to freelance writing full time, and I’ve been trying to grab tips, hints, and tricks (I know that there aren’t many of these, I should probably just actually write) about the craft.

I encourage most creatives to pick this one up. It came out several years ago, and I think its a push for new creatives to put their work out into the world, and its an in-your-face reminder about what you were put here to do for experienced creatives.

Gilbert does an excellent job of getting you excited to create, whether its writing, painting, drawing, etc. She always brings home the message that the world needs your magic, and there’s a place for what you have to offer.

NaNoWriMo is upon us next month, and I found this to be the perfect primer before I dive into a month filled with stomachaches and self imposed deadlines.

I highly recommend getting the ebook of this title because even when you’re doing your most mundane and objectively not creative task, like waiting for your doctor’s appointment, Big Magic is a welcome break from the real world, and a cozy home for those of us that want to hide away in worlds we’ve built in our heads.

You can buy the ebook here.

Thanks for coming to my blog! ajcreads is a book review blog and author page for me, ajc! I’ve read so many books so far this year, but I want to get my recommendations out into the world as soon as possible. Let’s dive into my first must read- Siri, who am I?

This one kept me busy for about two days. First of all, Tschida does a great job of including the stereotypical millennial short attention span into the pacing of the novel. This novel doesn’t have any dead points, its very fast paced which complements the chaotic plot.

Without spoiling too much, the main character, Mia, wakes up in the hospital with severe amnesia and she has no clue who she is. The only path to recovering her life is in the contacts in her phone. Mia puts the story of what she thinks is an ideal life together and goes on several adventures to make sense of how she ended up in the hospital.

This book is hilarious in a way, and a quick and laid back read. You can find it here.
