Stop. Leave me to my devices and go away. Just get off my back already, all right? You don't know me, don't know my situation. You don't know the town I live in, the people I live with, the friends I own. Don't hold me to your standards. Stop expecting the best from me. I've never been given the tools to be her. 

So let me alone. Life's easy when nothing expects so little of you. Easy is what I crave. Easy is what I do best. Let the world weep. What good could I possibly do them anyhow? Follow my lead and close your eyes. It's effortless. 

Stop asking about me. I'm okay with being no one, a nobody. I'm comfortable with this stagnant life.There's nothing I stand to lose. I've taken no risks. 

Life can't be changed by simply doing nothing. 

Can it?

I’m Lily Hahn and this is the story of how I went from a life of hollow nothing to a life of exhaustive agony and why I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.

THERE YOU HAVE IT GUYS!

Who's excited for book 4?

Vain has been my fave so far, but I can't wait to learn more about Lily Hahn.

Book Review 01: Sachiiro no One Room 幸色のワンルーム 1 - 4 (2017)

Sachiiro no One Room

| More info on Goodreads | 2017 |

A girl who's only 14-years-old endures a tough life. At home, her parents physically and emotionally abuse her. At school, she is bullied by her classmates. She really does not belong anywhere. She has no one to lean on. Until one day...

(NOTE: The review below may contain spoilers. Please read at your own risk!)

My curiosity for Sachiiro no One Room started when I saw the first episode of TV adaptation. Right after finishing episode 1, I wanted to know more of the story so I went ahead and read the manga.

Series Review 01: Voice 보이스 (2017)

Voice

a.k.a 보이스

| More info on IMDB | 2017 |

This popular OCN drama stars Jang Hyuk as Moo Jin-Hyuk and Lee Ha-Na as Kang Kwon-Joo. Both characters will team up to solve 112 calls.

Back then, Jin-Hyuk was a topnotch detective, but after his wife was murdered by a serial killer, his life went downhill. He started to live aimlessly. His only goal now was to find out who really killed his wife.

Meanwhile, Kwon-Joo works as a 112 call responder. Her father was killed while she was talking to him over the phone. Devastated that she was NOT able to identify who killed her father, she took a break from work. Soon, she came back to Korea as a voice profiler. She now supervises  the "Golden Team" division and chooses to work with detective Jin-Hyuk to solve cases together in the hopes of finding the real perpetrator of their deceased family members.

Korean dramas are known to be sappy and sweet. Well-loved Kdramas never fail to make us laugh, cry, and swoon. Voice offers something unique because it does not follow the mainstream formulaic pattern. If want a Kdrama that's not the usual run-of-the-mill, this is it! Voice is very dark and twisted. It shows the viewers a very brutal way of maiming, killing, and dismembering people.
