About this ebook
Life, as you subconsciously know, is built up of an infinite number of moments. Moments which change us, moments which improve us, moments which define us. Therefore, with this principle in mind, this book was created. There is no specific category for this book, although most would classify it as horror.
It is, and not, about Love. It is, and not, about Fear. It is, and not, about Dreams.
And maybe, it is that very uncertainty that appeals to us. The "What if" in life. What would have happened if I had said yes to him? What would have happened if I had accepted the offer that night? What would have happened if nobody intervened to save me?
This book is a collection of short stories and poems that celebrate all that the human race is about: uncertainty, hope, hatred, and creating an infinitely large collection of infinitesimal moments

A good attempt by the author, considering this is her first book. The pieces that stood out for me are "Love", "Just Another Day", and "That Night". The theme of every story/poem is essentially gloomy, each ending in a hopeful or suspenseful manner.
