"Bared to You" by Sylvia Day

Love and attraction in modern society are very complicated concepts that have thousands of little nuances to them. In most places, there are various pre-programmed personal and social expectations for those who fall in love with each other, just like there is an unwritten rulebook on how they must behave and how they should react to various situations. 

Fortunately, many of us choose not to follow those imaginary social constraints, but it doesn’t necessarily make the process easier, as Sylvia Day clearly explores it in her novel titled Bared to You: A Crossfire Novel.

To give you a brief description, the story is that of a beautiful woman who finds herself irresistibly attracted to Gideon Cross. They start a romantic relationship and as they become increasingly obsessed with each other skeletons start to fall out of their closets, putting their love for each other to the test time and time again. 

Bared to You by Sylvia Day (Book cover)
The characters in the book are practically transformed by the relationship they are having… but is it for the better, or for the worse? As you can probably see at this point, Bared to You bears various similarities with Fifty Shades of Grey by E.L. James… as it explores a troublesome and practically tormenting relationship between two people who simply cannot be torn apart from each other. 

Whether you are looking for a character study on how romantic relationships can evolve or simply seeking to entertain yourself with a dramatic love story, then this book will definitely be right up your alley.

“The Girl on the Stairs” by Barry Ernest – The Small Thorn you Can’t Ignore

Image
Girl on the Stairs , by Barry Ernest and with a foreword written by David Lifton, is an exploration of one specific aspect of the JFK assassination. More precisely, it looks into what a little girl by the name of Victoria Adams saw on that day while standing in the staircase of the Texas School Book Depository, where Lee Harvey Oswald was supposedly making his escape.  Actually, it is more about what she didn’t see than what she did see. Victoria was on the staircase Oswald supposedly used, at the exact same time he supposedly used it. If he were to be there, even the little girl she was, Victoria would have noticed a nervous man quickly running down the stairs. However, she says that on that day, she was alone there, with nobody to be found, especially Oswald.
