Love: From The Jungle To The Divine by R. Stephen Lynch

This may be a short book, but it packs a lot of information that is both invigorating and moving. If you find yourself questioning why relationships fail, or even consider that you might be the reason, you need to read this book.

R. Stephen Lynch has given as methods and deep thoughts for us to use at our leisure to understand the value of ourselves and where we put that value in life, with an emphasis on failed relationships. Six chapters devote time to explaining his theory “The Jungle Equation” and how we might benefit from understanding this theory and grow our self worth.

Lynch relates to us by using his own personal stories and how he resolved to let the inner demons not win. The conclusion of this book suggests six steps to consider beginning the journey.

The fact that this book is short and to the point, made it quite satisfying in reading. It can easily be read in a day, but I think it would be best to read one chapter a day to get the most internal monologue with yourself to understand The Jungle Equation. Absorbing this information slowly will most likely result in the best outcome.

Thank you, R. Stephen Lynch, for sending me a copy of your book. I enjoyed reading and relating to your stories and the knowledge you share.

The power of love is one action that helps Scares that Care be successful. The stories are about cryptids, human horrors, empty towns, ghosts, and historical horror. It is a unique blend of different horrors. It would be hard to choose one favorite out of this collection. Every single story was enjoyable, and it introduced me to authors I had not heard of before. I definitely recommend this to all horror lovers. There is something for everyone.

The Deading by Nicholas Belardes

This is genuinely a wonderful story. The Deading is one of the best pieces of literary horror I have read. It guides you through so many emotions and inner demons of all the characters. From the young to the old, The Deading highlights the differences of what age and time can do to change the strengths and compassion of an individual. While priorities are always different when we grow older, the basic need to survive and to be loved… never changes. Belardes reminds us that even though we have faults, we are each unique and have the capabilities to survive difficulties and come out stronger and better. This is a strong character-driven narrative with some ornithology, creature features, and suspense. Under the watchful eye of the government, a small sea-side town tries to survive an infliction upon them. The people are changing. The once quiet and calm town has become a ruthless and dangerous community. The anxiety and stress of living in this changed town takes a toll on so ...
