MOTS Spotlight: Remi Roy
I am so pleased to introduce my new friend and fellow writer, Remi Roy. I received a copy of Remi's debut novella, Ms. Unlikely and I throughly enjoyed it. Remi Roy has penned a sweet, realistic coming-of-age story. In doing so, she created likable and relatable characters, who make us care and root for them despite their imperfections. The characters jump of the page, with their witty dialogue and well-rounded personalities. I absolutely loved Reki and identified with many of the struggles she faced. Though I would have liked a little more resolution at the end, I thoroughly enjoyed this book and highly recommend it.
I look forward to many more great books from this author - she is definitely one to watch. Find out more about her and read more about her new book.

Silver linings are important to see,
In these times, they are sure to fill us all with delight
Yet, the world does not perceive the small things
Things we can all fathom
But we choose to look loosely rather than CLOSELY
