Book of the Day
Trilogy of My life...
I have always loved to read. I have loved books since I learned to read. Reading allows me to be completely immersed in another world. When I am reading, I imagine the setting, the characters and the things they say and do. It is my favorite thing to do outside of writing. I will never forget a particular series of book that I read some years ago. I have actually read it again and listened to it on audiobook. It is a set of three books. The first one is God Don't Like Ugly. The second book is God STILL Don't Like Ugly. The last book is God Don't Play. The series focuses on a little black girl. The reader follows her through life across the three novels. The girl ends up fatherless and being raised by a struggling single mother. This is the first thing i can relate to here: being a struggling single mother. The father leaves the family because he falls in love with a white woman. Her race important because this was during the time that interracial couples were taboo, even outlawed in some places. The father is the breadwinner for the family. They were already poor with him working, so when he left, things got worse very fast.

The Dragon and the Porcupine
The Dragon and the Porcupine. Once upon a time, in a mystical forest nestled deep within the heart of a magical kingdom, two unlikely friends embarked on an extraordinary adventure. Draganax, a majestic dragon with shimmering emerald scales, ruled over the skies and protected the land with his fiery breath. Quillbert, on the other hand, was a solitary porcupine with a coat of quills that glistened like silver needles in the moonlight.

Romeo and Juliet
When William Shakespeare wrote Romeo and Juliet, relatively early in his illustrious career, he did what he nearly always did: reworked a story that was already well-known, and made his version the one that history would remember. The tragic tale of the Montague and Capulet family feud, which seems to have had some basis in fact, was first documented by Italian and French poets from the years 1530 to 1559. Shakespeare worked primarily from Arthur Brooke’s 1562 version, which was the first one written in English. Romeo and Juliet proved popular with audiences and was published twice during Shakespeare’s lifetime, in 1587 and 1599. It then appeared in the 1623 first collected edition.

William Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale
Written sometime between 1609 and 1611, The Winter’s Tale is grouped alongside Cymbeline, Pericles and The Tempest as Shakespeare’s four Late Comedies, also known as his Romances. These are often regarded as Shakespeare’s final plays, or at any rate the last ones he wrote alone, since his remaining works after The Tempest were all co-authored with John Fletcher. (Strictly speaking, Pericles was co-authored too.) Like The Tempest and Cymbeline, The Winter’s Tale did not see print during Shakespeare’s lifetime. The earliest text is in the First Folio of 1623.
