    Muciongai is a village in Meru, Kenya which has had unique behavior attributed from natural and man made occurrences. Everything seemed to be working well in the long history of the village, until human greed and influence from the outside world penetrated the village and caused a catastrophe of climate devastation. The story highlights the competing interests between generations and the wide diversity of values that see the conquering of traditional values by notions of modernity to the detriment of the village. Reading this book connects many themes together and invites the reader to many imaginations of situations in the book and knowledge on the failures of human nature to coexist, respect and work with nature to his survival advantage.

    On the night she turns sixteen, Anya Teakwood-an Omega who can quiet storms by breathing softer-feels the Moon look back. In one breath her skin remembers winter, her eyes bloom emerald, and the goddess Isolde rises inside her like tide. New Vassaria is a modern kingdom where crowns are worn in boardrooms and wars are waged with ledgers. Six years ago, an "accident" remade the line of succession. Since then, Regent Mara Vass has ruled with immaculate control; Silas Grimm, Alpha of the Nightward, hunts power in shadow; and heir Kade Vass has been forged into a weapon polite enough to pass in daylight. The night Kade follows a storm to Anya's porch, the mate bond strikes like soldered lightning-and the old vow that keeps the city in balance wakes hungry. With a beta bodyguard who is steadier than myth (Rowan) and a witch‑archivist who turns memory into law (Priya), Anya steps into an under‑library that sings and a marketplace that can be made to pray. To expose a murder dressed as gravity and to restore a broken covenant, she must turn shareholder meetings into liturgy, teach cameras to witness, and choose between spectacle that burns and repair that lasts. Kade must choose love over dynasty's cruelty; Mara must choose counsel over control; and the city must learn to keep receipts out loud. Part supernatural romance, part corporate war, Isolde Becoming is a story of softness as discipline and power as stewardship-not possession. If you like fated‑mates chemistry with consent, goddesses in skyscrapers, and revolutions that start with a clerk's stamp, step into New Vassaria.

    Author's Note: This poem was a part of a collection that I wrote in middle school. It was actually in the same collection as the poem, Pathway of Time. I forgot what type of poem it is because it is not free verse and the wrapping of the lines is intentional. As I read it now, I am struck by all of the dichotomies: fire can be both a destructive and creative force, nature vs modernity and the ways in which humanity is a part of that, chaos and order, and real and supernatural (with the talk of fairies near the end). It is a sort of an "everything and nothing" poem. It has a prose structure, but it is broken up in the middle of the sentences. As you read the poem, think about the dichotomies in yourself and your own life. How are you walking in the forest?

    This book was written right after the 9/11 attacks that were staged in the two big cities of the United States of America in 2001 and it was explained with verses from the Qur'an, the practices of the Prophet Mohammed (pbuh) and examples from Islamic history that Islam denounces terrorism. However, terrorist attacks continued after 9/11, and spread to other countries including Great Britain, Spain, Turkey and France. This prompted politicians, academicians, religious leaders and writers, in other words, all conscientious people all around the world, to look for solutions to terrorism, to understand its causes and to work out the steps that should be taken. When this book was first written in 2002, we explained with evidence that terrorists, and most importantly their leaders, are selfish, cruel and merciless people who, as a result of Darwinist and materialist education they received, see life as a constant struggle where only the fittest survive. Such people came to believe that violence and wars were justified means to their ends. Al Qaeda was very active at that time. Especially in recent years, many new terrorist organisations have emerged and they have used similar Islamic symbolism in their attacks against civilians. This deeply flawed understanding, which is diametrically opposed to Islam, a religion that favours peace over war, life over death, forgiveness over punishment, reconciliation over conflict, legitimizes violence against non-Muslims, and even against Muslims if they have different views or if they don't practice Islam or if they follow a different sect. Surely, this radical mentality is the biggest problem of the world today. Hopefully the money currently being squandered on weapons will be spent on education instead and they will join forces with illuminated, modern, loving and sensible Muslims.

    A shallow appearance defied senses, rather than other volatile combustions. As I sliced through the unfolding of it, any grip took me from the passive reality. From my madeleine. A number of my friends has recently been given unexpected love declarations.
