A Confusion of Princes by Garth Nix [Book Thoughts]

In short: A Confusion of Princes is typical sci-fi escapist fiction but it’s decent sci-fi escapist fiction. If the premises interests you or if you’re a fan of Nix or the genre, it’s probably worth a read.

Black Beauty by Anna Sewell [Book Thoughts]

Light, pleasant and positive, Black Beauty is a great story for any child to read. The themes of animal cruelty are handled admirably.

Beatrice and Virgil by Yann Martel [Book Thoughts]

Probably the best book I've read all year. Yann Martel is amazing. He's quickly becoming one of my favourite authors.

On the Shortness of Life by Seneca [Book Thoughts]

In the end, On the Shortness of Life is more a book that I am glad to have read but did not particularly enjoy reading. For anyone interested, give the first essay a read, skip the other two.

The Trading Game [Short Fiction]

I wrote this piece a few months ago and submitted it to a literary magazine. Sadly, it was rejected so here it goes. I'd like to think that I've come a long way as a writer since I wrote this and I hope to do a lot better in the future. At the time, I envisioned this one being a middle chapter in a novel.
