The Island
"This is The Island, a prison designed for minors like me- too young to be executed, too old to be reformed, and too much of a stain on humanity to let exist. It was 'the answer' to the growing crime rate resulting from a world that was falling apart. The details evade me, but there is one thing I know. The water doesn't seem as scary as it did before." When Jordyn wakes up in the middle of a tropical forest in the mouth of a cat too big to be real, she decides this isn't how she wants to die. The Island has other plans, though. It was designed to kill her, and it will bring out every gun in the arsenal to do so. Her life becomes a game of survival from the mutant and venomous animals, severe temperature changes, and impossible weather scenarios that exist in this government manufactured prison. The twist? She has no idea who she is, where she came from, or why she committed first-degree arson. In this mixture of "The Hunger Games" and "Maze Runner", Jordyn has to unravel the truth before nature kills her- or die not knowing.

Dolphin Tale 7
Sequel to DOLPHIN TALE 6 by UnderTheBlueSkies. * I do not own DOLPHIN TALE or DOLPHIN TALE 2. Nothing belongs to me, with the exception of all OC's and the plot. Credit will be given where due to others' contributions. Please note this is a novella, thus will be considerably shorter than the other books in this series. * Love isn't as easy and straightforward as it seems. In fact, some would describe it as the world's deadliest and most painful emotion. With a child---or two---on the way, Hazel and Sawyer must navigate the tangles of parenthood, perhaps even discovering that love isn't what it's cut out to be; sometimes love can be pure bliss, but it can also kill you, especially if you're not ready to let something---or someone---go.

A Touch of Sorrow [Dazai x OC x Chuuya]
"An apology can't change the reality, but it can change one's mind about that reality." ----- A book I managed to whip up in my prolonged spring break. Enjoy!

I don't own anything except for the story and my OCs! ----- Published: June 29th 2020. Status: CompletedComplete
