We've all gone through periods when life felt too heavy. Child, teenager, adult... everyone carries their wounds. And sometimes, all it takes is a book to offer us the balm our heart needed.
There are those stories that come at just the right time. The ones that make us breathe, hope, feel understood. The ones that remind us we are not alone.
That's why I write. If my novels can become, even for a moment, a refuge for someone in need, then they have already found their purpose.
And you, what book helped you get back on your feet or left its mark on your life?
You probably needed a bandage and you found books.
