bookshelves: purchased
It started out innocently enough, just a simple exercise jog in the park. Which is Tom’s daily routine to aid in his recovery from a stroke. Little did he know that his stroke had unlocked a hidden powerful ability to hear others' thoughts. He stumbled upon something he never could have anticipated. What may have seemed like an intrusion of other’s privacy turns into a crime.

There's consequences for having this new found power. This story takes a turn and will keep you flipping the pages to find out what’s going to happen next. Tom is faced with making decisions to keep his wife safe. Now he’s on a mission to put an end to the bank crime and bring his wife home safely.

One the Edge is a relatively short book with a good plot. I love the personal talks, interactions, and relationship in Tom’s and Tricia’s marriage. Which gives the story warmth and family dedication despite the robbery involved. It’s a good read and will keep you interested until the story ends.

Powerful!

Thunderstroke is a strong and powerful story written as poems. It is a deep expression of how Terence Ang is living with the aftermath of his stroke. Unlike the graphic artwork of Ang’s previous books. The pages display words without pictures. Poetry is a work of art and this book is artfully written in a way that is brilliant. It reveals the feelings and emotions of how dealing with a stroke left Terence.

Most of the poems are written metaphorically to describe the hardships, challenges, and disabilities of living with a stroke. Which allows the reader to reflect on the impact yet giving a positive mindset for overcoming and transformation. Although the poems are short and simple, the poet paints meaningful pictures with his words.

Thunderstroke isn’t only about the struggles of dealing with a stroke. It gives encouragement to overcome challenges and obstacles pertaining to it. Giving hope to those who have suffered or a loved one who is experiencing the aftermath of a stroke. Most of all.. Poetry is a beautiful expression of emotions and can be healing to the soul. I Love this Book! ]]>
