Review: Oil And Marble By Stephanie Storey
Leonardo Da Vinci is an old master who is well celebrated and well known in medieval Italy, he has grown to fame over the years. But problems find him. He has barely finished a project that will keep memory of him forever, something that will be sure to wow the crowds for generations. He has earned a reputation of not finishing his work given to him by patrons. And to make it worse, being in medieval war torn Italy he has no choice but to abandon some of the best pieces and patrons that uphold his legacy and is forced to find a new one, something that can stand against the time of this world.

The Magic of Storytelling
Were I given the option to have one amazing ability, I would select the gift of composing a bestselling fiction book like famous authors such as John Grisham, Glennon Doyle, Elizabeth Gilbert or James Patterson. Such power of writing a book that touches millions, moves hearts, and changes billions of lives for the better is not limited to success and wealth. It has the ability to connect deeply to the readers, change cultural perspectives, and leave an everlasting legacy. Therefore, here are the reasons as to why I believe this trait is the most important:

My dream girl . AI-Generated.
_My Dream Girl_ I'd given up on love. Heartbreak and disappointment had left me jaded. But then, she appeared. It was a crisp autumn evening, and I was strolling through the park. Leaves crunched beneath my feet as I walked, lost in thought.

Rick Riordan Presents Imprint vs short stories from class:
My creative project is a compare and contrast between three books from a published imprint to several short stories we have read in class. The imprint is called Rick Riordan Presents, Riordan is the author of the Percy Jackson series and many others who have partnered with Disney Hyperion Book Group to complete a simple goal. From Riordan himself, he states on the imprint's website “the goal of the imprint is to publish great middle- grade authors from underrepresented cultures and backgrounds, to let them tell their own stories inspired by the mythologies and folklore of their own heritage” (Riordan). The respective stories that I have chosen to analyze focus on Korean, Hindu, and West African mythologies. Those books are The Dragon Pearl by Yoon Ha Lee, Aru Shah and the End of Time by Roshani Chokshi, and Tristan Strong Punches a Hole in the Sky by Kwame Mbalia. The PowerPoint presentation will be analyzing settings, conflicts, and themes in the primary and secondary sources.

Tell Me My Name by Amy Reed
Unique, interesting, poetic. Also confusing as hell. This YA 2021 dystopian novel is certainly an odd one. Its main character’s name is Fern, an 18-year-old who lives on the wealthy Commodore Island. She has two dads and a pet that she cares about, but she doesn’t have many friends or any ambitions besides wishing for her childhood best friend to return her romantic feelings, and even these feelings are dull and fleeting. She feels invisible, unmotivated, and unimportant. This is until she gets a new neighbor named Ivy, a young star seeking rehabilitation, who turns her world on its axis forever.
