Sinopse

‘Tarawih’ (Arabic) comes from the root word that means to take a rest, and take rest I did.Notes After Terawih is a series of word sketches I drew based on my distracted observation during night prayers, or terawih prayers, done in a single mosque during Ramadhan. Thousands of us here in Singapore engage in terawih for thirty nights in a row – that’s a huge multitude of experiences. Yet, all these experiences are tucked within the walls of the mosque and ultimately remain in Ramadhan... As a new kid in this terawih thing, I decided to take some notes. None of these were written on the spot. Instead, they were recalled and typed on my phone as I headed home for the night.

    In the heartbeat of Boston, 18-year-old Merina dreams of escaping the gritty streets of Mattapan. Her world shatters when a seemingly innocent getaway spirals into a nightmare. Betrayed and assaulted by Jason, a charming yet sinister CEO, Merina is left for dead. But she survives, saved by a reclusive ex-military man, and emerges stronger as Killmel—a masked avenger seeking justice on her terms. As Killmel, Merina wages war against Jason and his corrupt empire, VAPEZ, built on lies and exploitation. With her fierce sister Serena, and allies like the reformed Bizzy B and his sister Gabriella, Merina challenges a system rigged to protect the powerful. Even Darius, her longtime friend, must confront his silence and complicity. "Error of Judgment" is a riveting blend of psychological drama and vigilante justice, taking readers from tense street battles to high-stakes courtroom showdowns. Alongside unforgettable characters like Katie, a whistleblowing assistant, and Eleanor, Jason’s defiant wife, the story becomes a symphony of resistance and a battle cry for the silenced. This gripping thriller is more than a tale of revenge; it’s a testament to resilience and sisterhood. Whether you dive into the eBook or the captivating audiobook, this story will stay with you, reminding us that justice doesn’t always wear a badge. Sometimes, it wears a mask. And sometimes, it looks like a girl who refused to die.

    Amid the stately arches of a centuries-old New England campus, a quietly unassuming but brilliant poetry professor delivers the most important lecture of his life. Diagnosed with a terminal illness and determined to leave something lasting behind, he reveals long-guarded secrets gleaned from an extraordinary upbringing among rare books and eccentric mentors in Hay-on-Wye, Wales. 
    From ancient manuscripts to hidden scribbles, his words come alive in stories of resilience and love, hope and loss, culminating in a simple yet profound “Happiness Formula.” Guided by three transformative attitudes—Passion, Tempo, and Awareness—and built upon the pillars of Love, Balance, and Values, his teachings illuminate a path toward genuine, enduring joy. 
    In this poignant fictional account, his son—author Erasmus Cromwell-Smith II—pieces together the professor’s final poetry class of 2017, weaving in firsthand testimonies from entranced students and precious archives rescued from near destruction. Their vivid recollections form a testament to life’s fragile beauty and the power of a well-lived day. 
    Enter The Happiness Triangle, the first volume of The Equilibrist Series: a heartfelt tale of a teacher racing against time to bestow a timeless gift. Rich with poetry, philosophical insight, and a dash of romance, this novel reminds us that real magic resides not in lofty ambitions or chance events, but in the everyday moments where we dare to live fully, love boundlessly—and discover happiness for ourselves.
