    A book of emotion, excitement, war, betrayal, and pureness. šŸ„€ [[PREVIOUSLY "The Bombing"]] **Will update and add chapters at least once or twice a week. šŸ’« In the beginning of the book, there is going to be a first person perspective of Alec, followed by one third person omniscient to provide a bit more context about the characters' characteristics and intentions. From there on, it will all be Nicos' first person perspective. I might add another third person omniscient chapter for fun if you guys would like more. šŸ’„šŸŒø In this book, there is no fixed good and bad guy. Although it may seem one way at times, this is for you to decide who your favourite character is! 🌟 Any constructive feedback or comments would be greatly appreciated! šŸŒˆā˜”ļø Happy Reading!! šŸ“ššŸƒšŸŒ·

    This book is a memoir about the author's intimate experience of growth and self-discovery, including their experience of growing up in Tunisia and the uneasy personal realities that surrounded it. The book describes the author's experience moving from a religious, specifically nihilistic belief structure, but eventually believing in some form of designer/higher power. The author shares their live experiences of dealing with strange experiences from meeting a stranger on the street who claims to be able to predict the future, to their exposure and experience with astrology, and their experience with ghosts that made them question their existence here on earth. This book also touches on gender equality and the ignorance prevalent in the third world and some cultural and religious norms. In this book, it guides the author and the audience to encourage ownership on their own journey of self-discovery while providing realistic tips and habits to create a more enjoyable and purposed-filled existence. The book will also explore ideas that society is made up of a world of NPC's (non-playable characters) and how to escape it. It will look at the reasons for complacency along with basic tips and habits to live a more fulfilling, more purpose-driven life. We will also share inspiring stories of individuals who have also clapped out of their npc shells and are now living this thing called life, however they choose to. So whether you're looking to live differently, discover your passion or simply want to escape the boredom of the everyday hustle, this is the book for you. So let's venture on a journey of self-discovery and transformation!

    A new way to look at life. ~~~ Have you ever truly been stuck? I have. My limbs forced together and my body suddenly immobile. My hands full of empty promises. My feet stripped of the shoes I once owned. My feet bearing searing cracks. My mother crying in the street, begging you to feed her baby. My father, fading as though he was never there. My life vanishing before my eyes. Excerpt from "Have You Ever Been Stuck?"
