Aside from being captivating, the book also has hints of humor dropped at the right timing, making it even more entertaining.

It is spooky but exciting, and despite it being a wild ghost hunt, there are parts where it goes deeper to tackle social issues.
Satires are supposed to poke fun at controversial topics, but Hejna’s writing will make the readers realize that there is nothing really funny in a world full of injustice, corruption, and suffering. Despite some inconsistencies, Republic of Equality – 2033 is still a good and thoughtful read.
This is not only about the comedic approach; this is a paradox that reveals a lot about humanity that will get people either laughing or shaking their heads because it’s so true. Most importantly, this will get people thinking about our current state and how can we collectively do better, even with disagreeing opinions.
The Engine of Survival starts suspensefully in a heart-racing scene. Set in 2050 with a diverse set of characters and a generally engaging plot, great imagery slowly fills the senses. Though the pacing takes its time, the world-building is impeccable. However, the long backstories do not seem necessary anymore. While a story’s foundation is incredibly important, writing too much of it bores the audience, especially those who just want to focus on the current proceedings.

Breaking Sin is Emily Stormbrook’s attempt to explore her capabilities of writing dark fiction and it’s a good one.

Stormbrook is able to define what BDSM is by showing the readers what it is not.
It is under the Erotica genre and it does a good job of heightening the readers’ senses. The best thing about it is it’s not only about the sex — there’s a bigger picture and a deeper story about love, forgiveness, and family waiting to be realized. […] There’s no chapter where Stormbrook slows down. She knows how to build up a scene and knows when to let go for a perfect and much-needed release.
Sam’s story-telling allures because while what he shares is factual, there is a sense of intrigue in hearing intimate matters about another person’s life. These matters, while not completely relatable, remind that everyone has their own piece of darkness, and that it is alright. There are things that are insignificant but, when told at the right place at the right time, sound scandalous. Austin has extensive knowledge of this timing and uses it well.
