Synopsis Logo

I’m dead.
I’m cold and alone and I’m dead. There’s no air in my lungs. My chest is as cold and hollow as a cave on a snow-capped mountain side. My heart no longer beats there. Frigid winds whistle through my ribs and the sadness inside me weeps like my favorite tree.
Days ago, I met with death face to face. The mirror, our meeting place. My two darkened green eyes stared deeply into hers. I tilted my head to the side. She did too.
“It’s time,” I whispered.
“It’s time,” she whispered.
And with that I turned away from her, the woman in the mirror who knew all of my secrets and all of my pain. I walked away from her and yet we’d never been closer than we were in that moment. The inner struggle was over. No more arguing with the woman in the mirror. No more arguing with myself. The choice was made. She was the victor. Or was I?
That was the day Riah Winter died.

Review by Natasha Gentile

What's worse, living when you want to die or dying while you're fighting to live?

I’m dead.


So I’m sitting her reading this blurb and I don’t know how to take it.  It’s giving me shivers and goosebumps.  I don’t know if my heart can allow itself to read it but I do anyway.
I’m cold and alone and I’m dead. There’s no air in my lungs. My chest is as cold and hollow as a cave on a snowcapped mountain side. My heart no longer beats there.
So if you’re looking for a book about rainbows , butterflies and unicorns this is most definitely not the book for you. 
But if you are looking for a book that will gut you right down to your soul then this is the one. I connected so much to her it was startling, even for me to accept and acknowledge it.  Not to the extreme that Riah was,  but to her situation.
The inner struggle was over.
No more arguing with the woman in the mirror.
No more arguing with myself.
The choice was made.
She was the victor. Or was I?
When you think you are drowning and nothing can save you, you just spiral.  It’s a feeling that you can’t even describe, but we have all been there.  How many times have we just asked ourselves can I just have a minute?  Can I just drink my coffee without being asked a question?
Whether at work or at home,  sometimes you just need a minute to breathe.  

Days ago, I met with death face to face.
The mirror, our meeting place. My two darkened green eyes stared deeply into hers.
I tilted my head to the side. She did too.
“It’s time,” I whispered. “It’s time,” she whispered
.
Riah Winter died, she died without help.  She died but before she left she looked in the mirror, a mirror that knew all her deepest secrets and what she found out is that.  Everything is not always like it seems.  That you shouldn’t judge a book by it’s cover.  You shouldn’t think that the person next door has that perfect life that you strive to have.  
Riah Winter showed me all that.   She made me see her pain as my strength.  She made me love my life, as crazy and hellish as it is at times.  She made me see that even those annoying moments when you just want two seconds to yourself,  you should sit back and cherish it.  Cherish every single moment because you don’t know what comes next or if you are even there for it.  
It also showed me, that I hold the key to my destiny.  I hold the key to my happiness.  So be happy that you are living.  Be happy that you have what you have even if it isn’t like you thought you would.  
It’s living.
Kathryn Perez you have gutted me and made me think of better things even though the message to get there made me gasp and turn away!
