Blurb:

For eleven years, Oakley Farrell has been silent. At the age of five, she stopped talking, and no one seems to know why. Refusing to communicate beyond a few physical actions, Oakley remains in her own little world.

Bullied at school, she has just one friend, Cole Benson. Cole stands by her, refusing to believe that she is not perfect the way she is. Over the years, they have developed their own version of a normal friendship. However, will it still work as they start to grow even closer?

When Oakley is forced to face someone from her past, can she hold her secret in any longer?


Opinion:

"Silence was my prison"

Must read for psychological thriller fans. Author portrayed the struggles and Traumatic experiences Oakley endures during her captivity. In this book, it's evident that Oakley is haunted by her past and struggles with nightmares and trsut issues. It clearly shows how her abduction have an long lasting impact on her. The writing style is so good that it keeps me hooked right from the very start.

Author Interview - Russell Gaynor

Exclusive Q/A session with the Author of The Mind of the Man-child,  Russell Gaynor Hello and Welcome everyone!  Today, we have the honour of hosting an author interview with Russell Gaynor. Thank you for joining us, and let's dive into this enriching author interview together! 1. What motivated you to become a writer, and when did you know this was what you wanted to do?
