A short reverse story of a little mermaid who is following a very similar plot. 

 While it's not a bad remake of the original story, I believe it could have been even better with a longer narrative. For instance, delving deeper into the environment and structure of the world would have been truly captivating. Despite sharing the same ending.

 A short story is written about a shop that sells things to commit suicide. The story is written in paragraphs so most of the time the text makes sense, until the end of the chapter. The ending is kind of disappointing but, in general, it is a great concept that could have been written a little better.

The Way of Chai: Recipes for a Meaningful Life by Kevin Wilson

hopeful informative reflective medium-paced

I have to admit, I am biased because most books on how to live a better life are written by white men who have lived their entire lives in first-world countries.

 However, even though the author's thoughts and life lessons are basic, they are still honest and universally applicable. I believe many people can benefit from them as a daily reminder of the different phases and stages of life. Just like a chai life, life has many phases and stages.
