Stay by A.L. Jackson
5.0
I may be a bleeding heart for the Bleeding Stars series but when you read poetry like this:
"We bled with the stars.
Where they streaked and wept across the endless sky.
Infinite.
Burning bright right before they quickly burned out.
Ashes."
How do you put into words the way that makes your heart clench? How do you explain the way you have fallen in love with a fictional bad boy? How do you tell someone the joy, the mystifying happiness, and exquisite peace that love brings?
Words that evoke feelings are special. Writing a book that makes me cry isn't that hard, but a book that makes you feel everything- that's priceless.
I read to escape. I read to feel that kind of love over and over again. I read to find more joy in an otherwise lack luster day.
A.L. Jackson has her reasons for writing. I just hope whatever they are she never gives them up.
Stay is another story from the boys of Sunder. It is the story of a closely guarded disguise being shredded. The word "Stay" may not be as powerful to some as love, but it so much more...
