This is a simple guide to the vernacular of Trinidad & Tobago, which is where I'm from. I used to do similar posts on my Facebook profile so I decided to compile them in a book that I can just keep updating. So whether you're a fan/tourist of Trinidad & Tobago or just curious about another culture this book is for you!

Take a read, leave a comment, ask questions and I'll answer them for you! If you have any words or phrases that you would like to see added feel free to let me know as well.All Rights Reserved

Five Years, Too Late by LahrieWebb

At just 18, Jasmine Reel thought she had it all-love, a future, and now, a baby on the way. But her joy shatters when the doctor warns: keeping the pregnancy could cost her life. Before she can process the risk, she learns the unthinkable-Thanntos, the father of her child, has disappeared... without a word. As reality crashes down, Jasmine is left with a devastating question: Can she face motherhood alone-or survive it at all?

Holding Back [COMPLETED] by joymoment

"I love how this book is turning out!😍 Not cliche at all!" - i_hatecliche "We might live next door to each other," Haley said, "but we don't live in the same world." Hooking her fingers around her backpack straps, she walked away from Jace. She had barely gone a few steps before he was at her side again. "What makes you believe we don't live in the same world?" he asked. "As far as I can tell, we do." "No, we don't. I'm...me and you're Jace Cortez. The dream of every girl. The friend to every guy. The star of the school. Girls. Sports. You're the ultimate player." "It sounds like you have a preconceived notion of who I am." "And it's one that has yet to be proven wrong." From books and a lifetime of sitting on the sidelines, Haley is convinced she knows how the world works, specifically high school. Everyone has a label and a box they fit in. This knowledge, paired with parents who are fighting, a brother leaving soon for college and a best friend who moved away has made her decide to never get involved. It will take being forced to work with her fellow juniors on a project, a boy next door with a infectious smile, a star gazer with an adorable puppy, and an unlikely pair of fangirls to make her see how truly wrong she was about everything. "IT'S NOT CLICHÉ!!!" - Moria987 "This is the reason y I keep coming back to this book...It's simply a breathtaking journey" - mariyamsajorawala "I don't usually comment but this is one of the best books I've read here. I love the fact that it's realistic and focuses on things that really hinder human interaction, perceptions and stereotypes." - yurfavegal "just gets better and better. How are all your characters 3D! Like this writing is so beautiful" - CrazyStarChick "Reading it for the second time, and the book still brings a smile to my face 😆" - grumpymood "She's practically Carter's twin 😂😂" - Guardian_21 #1 Breakingcliches #1 Arrogant #6 in Teen Romance

WEREWOLVES 101 - Beginners Guide by Polaris_Owl

This is where I confusingly ramble on and on about Werewolves, but somehow it makes sense. All nerds welcome. This is a safe space, this is a ✨nerd✨ space. Here we talk about all things Werewolves. And I'm going to ramble about random things. After this has finished, I will still add questions and answers to the Q/A because I need something to do in life. So send questions.) In this book I cover: • The world's view on Werewolves • Teen Wolf's view on Werewolves • Wattpads view on Werewolves • My view on Werewolves • Werewolf abilities • Alpha Werewolf Abilities • Mind Links • Mates, Marking, and Mating • Shifting • Clichés • The Wolf • Moon Goddess • Other Supernatural Creatures • Humans and their annoying(or not) roles. • GRAMMAR • Q/A I do not cover Pack Hierarchy in this, because for me that's a whole other matter, I need one whole book for that. It's- this is a wonderful subject that I'm obsessed with(I'm literally SO obsessed with Werewolves it's not a joke.) I'm in my research mode. !Slow Updates! Fun fact: A cats meow is they're way of communicating with people. Cats meow for many reasons- like to say hello, to ask for things, and to tell us when something's wrong. Meowing is an interesting vocalization in that adult cats don't actually meow at each other, just at people. I can vouch for that since my two cats never meowed at each other, just at the humans.

Is He A She?! by Mistalee_

Going back to my old title 'Is He A She?!' instead of the Tapas one 'Testoster-zone.' _______ ❝Sometimes you don't have to be Superman or Spiderman to save a soul. You just have to dress as a guy.❞ _______ Parents and troubled looks are always a bad combination. Just like how getting bankrupt and asking to dress as a guy are a bad combination. Mission objectives: 1. Befriend unfriendly, cold, rich loner. 2. Make him social. 3. Get the hell out of this all boys school. But some things go unplanned just like how the mission gets altered a 'teeny' bit. Like, for e.g., 1. Make friends. 2. Become one of the boys. 3. Make her roommate 'life of the party.' 4. Have the time of her life. 5. And maybe, just maybe... fall in love. ________________ Dedicated to my sister/mentor/inspiration @Litdark ________________ r e a d e r ' s o p i n i o n "Your story has dripping sarcasm and drool worthy attitude of girls, and the amazing romance - I kid you not, no one wants to miss an amazing sarcasm dripping hilarious fiction." "That girl is da bomb. Period." "The feels and bromance is too real. Help!" "Short. But hilarious and downright funny. Good job." ________________ #1 [ humour ] # 32 [ teen fiction ] Cover credit: me Image credit to owner Trailer credit: yours truly _________________ © copyright 2015-2016 Please do not copy.
