A lady who loves to read, reading is my safe haven. At my current age of 34 yrs old, I have collected over 300 + books. I feel like reading is not only knowledgeable, but they hold secrets to most things you wouldn’t know if it wasn’t for the book. I dream of buying a home soon, my future home library makes me excited just thinking about it. Reading books saved me as a child and till now, I grew up in a home where I had no voice, books kept me dreaming of what I could potentially accomplish one day.
I love to read non-fiction, self help and spiritual books, they’ve helped me so much with healing from past trauma. I finally got the courage to write my story as a Nigerian American, born in Texas to Christian couple in a book called “ Mangoes in the Rain” , in public we were a good christian family. My father a pastor would preach on Sundays but at home, my father would beat my mother and me. He called me a whore starting at the age of 12. When I went to Nigeria for the summer to visit in 2002, my father kept me there against my will not allowing me to return to America. As I laid in my bed crying my eyes out, I would read books and write daily. Once I escaped out of Nigeria 2 years later, I started to read about why people are who they are and how to become successful, I am excited to share books that helped me heal. I would like to continue to heal and tell my story through the books that saved me on my book blog. If anyone is going through pain past or present, I hope my blog helps you also:)

A Virgo is a person that is mean to their loved ones out of love ?? They are funny, smart, and daring ?? and beautiful. They are usually good at hidding their feelings about someone. But they will always show different types of love. But if you have a Virgo bestfriend then keep them with you because they are amazing friends.
You are correct:)
