![]() ![]() Larami is sensitive, clever and she seems to be a natural leader. I REALLY liked this writing approach and thought it really brought the story to life. The short story is divided into three parts, centered around three significant events in the couple’s lives, and each member of the couple contributes their view of what happened on the day in question. I would really recommend this one!Īn account of one heterosexual couple’s meetcute and a marriage day that didn’t turn out quite as planned. Though a difficult topic, the Serrano’s writing brings light and laughter, humility and grace to retelling what has got to have been one of the most traumatic events of their lifetimes. There should be something for everyone among these, including readers who love romance, non-fiction, sci-fi and thriller genres. Those listed here are my favourites from among the ones I’ve read so far. ![]() While these were all free for me to read, the retail cost is £0.99, so if one takes your fancy it might be worth taking a punt on one of these short stories. In my eyes, these Amazon exclusive short stories are perfect for reluctant readers, those with limited time on their hands, or those moments when you feel you want a bite-sized story (one you can gobble up on your lunch break… too far?). Regardless of that wider debate, I wanted to use this space to shine a light on some of the exceptional short stories that I was able to access via this service, in the hopes that you might benefit from a short read. I’m not here to explicitly promote Prime or Amazon (I have nothing to gain from doing so), nor enter the debate about its ethical practices but I will say that while I agree that capitalism is abhorrent, I do find the current discussion around boycotting Amazon very classist, ableist and US/UK centric. Alongside the announcement that Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie would soon be releasing a short story via Amazon, I learned that I had access to Prime Reading: a service that comes with an Amazon Prime membership and allows you to rent book titles to read on your kindle.Īs my local library is temporarily closed, and I suddenly had the unshifting desire to read exclusively on my kindle, this couldn’t have come around at a better time.

![]() ![]() Sho Kusakabe’s backstory is quite sad if you think about it. Now you’re caught up, let’s take a look at the five strongest characters in Fire Force. An ethereal villain named the Evangelist wants to assemble eight people (known as Pillars) who have the Adolla Burst inside them to recreate The Great Cataclysm that ravaged the world 250 years before the series began. ![]() People with Adolla Bursts possess greater abilities than other Pyrokinetics. The Burst is also known as the Genesis Flame and it powers the Amaterasu generator - providing all of Tokyo’s energy. An Adolla Burst comes from a mysterious alternate dimension called (you guessed it!) Adolla. If you’re new to Fire Force, here’s your quick lesson on the Adolla Burst, since it’s a vital part of the mythology in the series. Sure, some Ignition Abilities are a little too hot to handle, but it makes the fight between good and evil all the more exhilarating. The powers seen in the series vary depending on if they’re a Fourth, Third, or Second Generation Pyrokinetic. While other shows like My Hero Academia show off a wide variety of powers, Fire Force gets inventive when it comes to fighting fire with fire, literally. When Fire Force arrived back in 2019 it proved there’s still ways anime can make superpowers fresh and fascinating, all while delivering a sprawling story as Shinra Kusakabe helps extinguish demonic Infernals causing havoc in Tokyo. |
