Euphoric Wonderland: An Eclectic Collection of Psychedelic Poetry to Stimulate the Senses and Open the MindEuphoric Wonderland: An Eclectic Collection of Psychedelic Poetry to Stimulate the Senses and Open the Mind by Ryan M. Becker
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I feel like I fell down the rabbit hole and into a basement with an artist that might be high…think That 70’s Show kind of basement. But instead of other people, one individual is down there with his mind and a laptop, or typewriter…or even a journal.
There were several topics covered throughout the book. From what I did grasp, each poem tells a of a journey. And the length of the poems varies from short to multiple pages. Mr. Becker is not the influencer type poet.
You can tell that there is a lot of emotion and feeling poured into each line, each verse of every poem.

Cabin Eight (The Millersville Series Book 3) by Susan Specht Oram – Review by Maria Colon

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

{Sigh}

This thriller made me stop and think on multiple occasions. There are so many points in the novel where one can stop and think “what if this really happened?” or “what if this is already happening?”

At one point, I was questioning my use of social media…that is how the author sucks you in on the high paced “journey” with Miranda.

It all starts with the simple ritual of writing down her feelings and burning them. One fire later and a trip to a cabin resort and she’s trapped in a barn. Thus, begins her fall down the rabbit hole and descent into the non-wonderland.

While she is trying to escape the madness, she faces her demons and rises victoriously.

I will admit when I first started reading this book, I questioned my choice but after the first few chapters I was pleased I kept reading.
