Labeled In a world where every citizen is assigned a single personality label at birth, society thrives on order, predictability, and control. But for fifteen-year-old Violet Hale, the youngest Triform ever recorded, those rules don't apply. As one of the rare 3% born with not one, but three distinct personalities-each with its own voice, desires, and fears-Violet is celebrated as a symbol of hope and power. The government admires Triforms like her, placing them on pedestals and subjecting them to intense scrutiny. Yet beneath the praise lies pressure so immense it threatens to tear Violet apart. Struggling to balance her Peacemaker, Survivor, and Firebrand selves, she finds unexpected support in Kai, a mysterious older Triform with secrets of his own, and a tight-knit group of friends who share the same rare gift. Together, they must navigate the elite halls of the Triform Integration Center, uncover the true cost of their privilege, and challenge a system that demands perfection-and punishes those who don't comply. Labeled is a gripping young adult dystopian novel about identity, freedom, and the courage it takes to embrace every part of yourself-even the pieces that don't fit.

"In a world where ashes fall, two flames found each other and sparked a love that's destined to burn forever." Nashriele Agnievazka Cuevas, an orphan, possesses beauty and intelligence, yet her demeanour turns people away. Rejected, left behind, and painted as wicked, she stands alone. Unseen beneath the facade, there's a child's hope, looking for the arrival of someone who will embrace her, offering the love of a parent she has never known. In an unforeseen twist of fate, she will cross paths with a young boy who, like her, shares similar longings. Ashtrev Zakiel Gomez-Buenavides comes from a wealthy lineage, yet his compassion knows no bounds, reaching out to those people in need. A kind and gentle soul, beloved by all and radiating love in return. However, behind these characteristics, he carries an unfulfilled longing - the absence of a father's love. "Amidst life's journey, they once embraced each other tightly, until fate intervened. A decade later, can the heart still hold onto and feel the story of their youthful love, even if the mind has let go of its grasp on those memories? In the end, could their love endure like ashes to ashes?"

A faction of my family happens to be wealthy, powerful, and elite. I wrote the first verses of the Chatterzees after attending an event with them. I was simply disgusted how everyone at that Hamptons event were so aloof, arrogant, and obsessed with appreciating themselves (admittedly, I wasn't in the best of moods) but as I hovered around the snarky cliques, I was reminded of the arrogance of the Romanovs who were indifferent to the suffering around them. The backdrop was 2009 when most the nation was reeling from the Housing Crash... I was truly blessed in the privilege of this parallax view... It was an opportunity to see a truth few Americans behold. A fly on the wall witnessing how rich and superficial a tiny portion of America has become. That said, I begrudge no one for achieving prosperity, and I still love those people and do admire each in their own special way. However, I do believe that fewer Americans have the same opportunities as they, regardless of ability, and it bothered me how oblivious they were to their own rare privilege. After all, they are the movers and shakers of our world today. If the Chatterzees were to deliver them any kind of message, I would hope it would be to realize their privilege and use some it to help others up; for it's not that riches are a sin... it's what one does with riches that truly counts.

"Pretty Privilege is Real" explores the raw realities of societal biases surrounding beauty and privilege through the eyes of Lana, a bright yet overlooked girl navigating school, family, and friendships. The story unfolds through a series of poignant incidents that reveal how beauty often overshadows merit, leading to inequity in academic and social scenarios. Lana confronts systemic favoritism, from unfair treatment in school to dismissive judgments in her family, each incident building a stark contrast between her achievements and the unwarranted adulation her peers receive solely for their looks. Amidst these challenges, Lana's journey delves into unreciprocated crushes, unkind comparisons, and the painful awareness of being reduced to a "side character" in her own life. The narrative reflects her struggle with internalized insecurities and the pursuit of self-worth in a world dominated by superficial standards. Thought-provoking and emotionally resonant, this story sheds light on the pervasive effects of "pretty privilege" and its profound impact on young minds.
