DON’T LOOK DOWN By Nicky Corcoran’s

‘DON’T LOOK DOWN’ is an updated version of Nicky Corcoran’s book SHINE A LIGHT.

This inspirational book of nineteen poems talks about life-experiences, some of which are personal to the Author herself, from growing up in the 1960’s right through to recent times. The Author covers many a subject such as hormonal changes, bullying and hate-crimes, sexual orientation, sexism, child abuse, mental health, religion.and relevant issues in the world.

The Author also talks about love, compassion, happiness, education, holidays and coming together to care and share our problems, and to keep optimism in your heart and soul.

One thing that is clear is that the Author gives her encouragement and can relate herself and her own life experiences to those of her readers. She understands that sometimes life can be cruel and unpredictable, and the pressures can become overwhelming at times (just like a rollercoaster ride – one minute up, the next minute down).

The Author wants us to develop a certain mindset to prepare ourselves for the challenges that life can throw our way, to come together, join hands and learn from our mistakes, reflect and improve our lives and for future generations. Together we can stamp out greed, selfishness and hate!!

The poems in this book will leave you , the reader with mixed emotions. Some may make you laugh, some may make you sad and may bring a tear to your eye!

Book Review: The Rebirth: A Dark Noir Thriller By V.P. Evans

THE REBIRTH by V.P. Evans is an intense thriller that grips you from the first page and refuses to let go. The story begins with a dramatic prologue that sets the tone for the rest of the book—dark, suspenseful, and full of intrigue. It’s not just the plot that captures your attention but also the vivid imagery and the raw emotion that Evans injects into his writing. The opening scene with Dermot Walsh, drenched in blood and crawling toward Lake Michigan, is hauntingly cinematic.

Why Letter Stories Still Work in Young Adult Fiction

In a world full of instant messages and voice notes, a story built around handwritten letters might sound outdated. But Letters to Nobody proves that this format still has something special to offer. Letters slow everything down. They force characters to think before speaking and to sit with their emotions a little longer. In this story, two teenagers begin writing anonymously, sharing pieces of their lives they aren’t ready to say out loud. That distance gives them safety — and surprisingly, honesty. What makes the book stand out is how natural the exchange feels. The letters aren’t dramatic speeches. They’re simple, sometimes awkward, sometimes unsure. And that’s exactly why they work. By the time trust forms, it feels earned. The connection grows quietly, without big gestures or forced drama, showing that sometimes the strongest relationships start with small, careful words on a page.
