Winner of The Autumn Awards. Genre- Teen Fiction / Young Adult "Every second spent with you is worth remembering," Austin said, "Every time our hands hold each other, it sends an electric impulse down my spine. Every time I look at you, I just want to keep looking for the rest of my life. I love curves, I love your curves. The curves in your face when you smile and I can do anything to keep the smile on your face. The more I think about you, the more I think that I love you and I really do, Jane. I really love you. If the wind or the sun or the moon or anyone has been noticing me, they have witnessed that you have been in each of my thoughts. And who cares if you can never walk over the horizon, over the land and over the sand with me? Who cares about stupid proms, Jane? Grant me four walls and a roof, that would really be enough for me. You being with me is enough for me but yeah, it is my dream to go to Barcelona with you. It is my dream to be yours, but I believe that dreams don't come true and I will never ever have more pleasure in being wrong this time than anyother. I hope dreams come true and I will have the pleasure to be yours. I hope I am as lucky as Jaime was."

A school for teenagers who suffer from various anxieties, obsessions, and overall issues, Killjoy Institution seems like the poster place for turning kids into perfect human beings. However, it is more than just the setting; it is a place of boundaries tested and relationships formed and/or broken. Although the story mainly focuses on four, all these kids learn to overcome their different hardships and eventually form long lasting bonds that will continue for years to come. Side note- I made a playlist for this story with all of the songs and albums used in it called "Killjoy Institution Playlist", as well as the second one entitled "KI Second Generation Playlist", but that one will come later during the sequel (that I am already planning out as we speak). I gave out my youtube before, but in case you missed it, it is "motherqueenone" if you wish to find the playlist. I hope this story is enjoyed. It's easily one of my favorites.

Introverted Ilhaam is a hopeless romantic waiting for her own love story, but somehow has come to believe that no man will ever truly love her because of one feature that she is very insecure about - being BROWN-SKINNED. Will Ilhaam meet the man of her dreams? Will she overcome her unending insecurities? Above all, will she learn to love herself? ------- B.O.A.T is more than just a cliche romance. It is a story that revolves around a real social issue - COLORISM, which for years has tormented many people's lives, including mine. I've tried my best to portray the struggles of a brown-skinned girl as it is, which sometimes might look too exaggerated and negative for some readers. Of course, I could've written about a girl who finds comfort and loves her skin tone right from chapter one (because who doesn't like to read about a confident heroine, right?), but I didn't want to sugar-coat anything. This is a story about heartbreak, fighting through your insecurities, falling down, picking yourself up, and learning to love yourself without the need of validation from a man. Try reading it :) You'd love it ♥️ ----- WINNER - Sri Lankan Writers' Awards 2020 (15-09-2020)

'Love is like a child, That longs for everything it can come by' -William Shakespeare _______________________________________________________ Maya Matthews is the description of perfection, or as she has been addressed. She excels in every field she steps her foot into, be it from her perfect grades to being the best daughter a parent could ask for, you name it. Her tenderness is what attracts every guy's attention. She seems to have everything she could ask for. What could possibly be wrong with her near to perfect life? Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth. Maya has her demons that she desperately attempts to hide from the world that not a single soul knows about. Shawn Daniels is the perfect storm and the missing puzzle in Maya's life. He is the polar opposite of Maya. Smart, confident, and witty. He's often misunderstood for a bad boy, who has quite a handful of girls swooning over him. He's a carefree soul. He is the yin to her yang. What happens when they cross paths and Shawn unleashes Maya's dark secrets? Will he succeed in his mission to pull Maya out of her past, and show what life has to offer? But life is certainly not a bed of roses and nothing comes as easy. _______________________________________________________ They say love can overcome anything. You never exactly know when it will strike and turn your life upside down. Love will make you doubt every single thing that you believe in yet you will find yourself drowning in it slowly, very slowly but deeply. _______________________________________________________ All rights reserved © 2020-Shrya1712
