Nonetheless, despite the projections that print books would become irrelevant with the rise of digital platforms, they have not only survived but are truly making a comeback.

Rachel Reviews: Yellowface by Rebecca F. Kuang
The first thing that needs to be commented on is what a cover! I remember seeing it in the bookshop and it immediately catching my attention. From there, my curiosity was piqued. I know the old adage "Don't judge a book by its cover" but it's got to draw you in somehow, doesn't it, before words can hook you?

Rachel Reviews: Little Deaths by Emma Flint
I liked Little Deaths and what it sets out to do. Ruth Malone is a mother and our introduction to her in the start of the book perhaps does not present her in the best light, and in some ways sets the tone of the book: should we be so quick to judge based on what we think we know from appearance and lifestyle?

Harnessing the Hidden Force: Unleashing Your Subconscious Potential
Within each of us lies an incredible treasure house, a limitless source of power and wisdom known as the subconscious mind. This vast, untapped reservoir holds the key to transforming our lives, shaping our reality, and achieving our deepest desires. Joseph Murphy, in the first chapter of The Power of Your Subconscious Mind, introduces us to this profound concept, encouraging us to recognize and harness the potential that lies within. He begins by drawing a clear distinction between the conscious and subconscious minds. The conscious mind, Murphy explains, is the logical, analytical part of our being—the one that reasons, makes decisions, and directs our daily actions. It is akin to the captain of a ship, setting the course and giving commands. The subconscious mind, in contrast, operates below the surface, silently but powerfully. It is the crew that tirelessly follows the captain’s orders, executing them without question. This part of our mind is non-judgmental and receptive, absorbing every thought, belief, and emotion we feed it. Murphy emphasizes that the subconscious mind is governed by the law of belief. Whatever you believe deeply, and continually affirm, your subconscious will accept as true. Whether these beliefs are positive or negative, they shape your reality. If you fill your mind with thoughts of success, health, and happiness, your subconscious will manifest those experiences. Conversely, if your thoughts dwell on fear, doubt, or failure, those too will become your reality. This is where the power of belief comes into play. Murphy introduces the concept of autosuggestion, a method of influencing the subconscious through repeated affirmations. By consistently feeding your mind with positive, empowering statements, you can reprogram it to work in alignment with your desires. The chapter is rich with practical advice, illustrating the potential of the subconscious mind through vivid examples. Murphy recounts stories of individuals who have transformed their lives by changing their thought patterns. These tales serve to inspire and motivate, showing that anyone can unlock the power within, regardless of their current circumstances. The process begins with a simple yet powerful practice: visualization. Murphy encourages readers to create clear, vivid mental images of their desired outcomes. By doing so, they provide their subconscious with a detailed blueprint to follow. Visualization, coupled with faith and positive affirmations, can lead to remarkable changes, not just in the realm of personal achievement, but also in health and well-being. Murphy also delves into the mysterious yet undeniable power of the subconscious to heal. He shares accounts of individuals who have overcome illnesses and physical ailments by harnessing the healing capabilities of their minds. This power, he argues, is available to all of us. By planting the right seeds in our subconscious—seeds of health, strength, and vitality—we can tap into this inherent ability to restore and rejuvenate our bodies. The key is to approach this process with unwavering belief and faith. Doubt and fear are the greatest obstacles, blocking the mind’s natural healing power. By replacing these negative emotions with confidence and positive expectation, we can unlock the full potential of our subconscious mind. As the chapter draws to a close, Murphy leaves readers with a powerful message: the thoughts we cultivate today shape the reality we experience tomorrow. Our minds are like gardens, and the seeds we plant—our thoughts and beliefs—determine the harvest we reap. By becoming conscious of the thoughts we nurture and intentionally choosing positivity, we can transform our lives. This transformation is not a matter of chance but a deliberate process of engaging with the infinite power within. Murphy’s message is one of empowerment, reminding us that we are not victims of circumstance but creators of our destiny. In summary, the first chapter of The Power of Your Subconscious Mind invites readers to explore the immense potential of their inner world. It is a call to action, urging us to take control of our thoughts, harness the power of belief, and unlock the treasure house within. Through understanding and applying these principles, we can achieve greater happiness, success, and fulfillment. The journey to mastering the subconscious mind begins with a single step: recognizing the boundless treasure within and daring to believe in its power.
