I will like to share excerpts from my anthology titled: School Adventures. It features a collection from secondary school experiences. This is a collection of faction, coined from Wole Soyinka's impression of fiction and fact. The book contains very interesting stories of juveniles and their nuances
Well done My Prof, more grace to you Sir.

Unveiling the Treasure: My Journey to The Alchemist They say every book has a story, but few hold the magic of 'The Alchemist'. Found tucked away in a forgotten corner of an old bookstore, this copy holds secrets untold and dreams waiting to be realized. Join me as I embark on a journey inspired by its pages, a journey of discovery, destiny, and the alchemy of the soul. Here are some points that I would love to read: - The protagonist's inner journey and growth throughout the story. - How the themes of fate, destiny, and personal legend are explored. - The symbolism and allegories woven throughout the narrative. - Memorable quotes or passages that resonate deeply. - Insights into the author's life and inspirations behind the book. - Interpretations of the alchemist's teachings and philosophy. - The significance of recurring motifs, such as omens and dreams. - Real-world applications of the book's lessons and wisdom. - Reflections on the universal truths and timeless wisdom conveyed. - Personal anecdotes or experiences related to reading 'The Alchemist'. Do you have one? #BookLover #JourneyOfDiscovery #TheAlchemist
🌈The CLC’s #bookrecommendation for this week includes “Bliss Montage: Stories” by Ling Ma. (Recommended by our team member, Jackie!) In this award winning book, “Ling Ma brings us eight wildly different tales of people making their way through the madness and reality of our collective delusions: love and loneliness, connection and possession, friendship, motherhood, the idea of home.” - Macmillan Publishers 🍊These short stories, although exploring wildly different scenarios, show how the outlandish and ordinary are shockingly alike. #literacy #bookstagram #shortstories
