This is a very well plotted psychological thriller! I loved how it has a feminism sub-genre involved in the story. The Herd demonstrates the power of female empowerment and how women should ALWAYS support each other no matter what. However, it also portrays the power of envy and how it can really screw your mind.

Best Music for Reading
What is your favorite music for reading?! This is some kind of dilema, since we have people that don’t believe you can read and listen to music at the same time. Silence is the key for them to concentrate! Although I’ve never been diagnosed with ADD (that I know of haha), I have…
The Power of Bibliotherapy
Ever hear of the Power of Bibliography? I’m always researching ways to maintain a stable and healthy mindset. I’m a big supporter of psychotherapy.
