Book Description

We often pretend to be happy and put on a brave face for the world despite carrying the pain of enduring a personal struggle or adversity. When we are alone, that is when we fall into despair — for failing to overcome the struggles that we carry silently in our hearts. Are we considered strong if we do not fall when life pushes us to the ground? Do our faith and belief tell us that we cannot let our misery affect us because as the saying goes, “we must bear patience”? In this book, author Liyana Musfirah takes readers on a reflective journey of discovering the strength that emerges from each of our painful and scarring episodes. This is the book that celebrates what God has given women — the resilience to withstand emotional, spiritual, or even physical hardships.

Book Description

Relatable, heartbreaking, and real, this is a story of resilience--the perfect novel for readers of powerful contemporary fiction like Girl in Pieces and Every Last Word. Before, I was a million things. Now I'm only one. The Burned Girl. Ava Lee has lost everything there is to lose: Her parents. Her best friend. Her home. Even her face. She doesn't need a mirror to know what she looks like--she can see her reflection in the eyes of everyone around her. A year after the fire that destroyed her world, her aunt and uncle have decided she should go back to high school. Be "normal" again. Whatever that is. Ava knows better. There is no normal for someone like her. And forget making friends--no one wants to be seen with the Burned Girl, now or ever. But when Ava meets a fellow survivor named Piper, she begins to feel like maybe she doesn't have to face the nightmare alone. Sarcastic and blunt, Piper isn't afraid to push Ava out of her comfort zone. Piper introduces Ava to Asad, a boy who loves theater just as much as she does, and slowly, Ava tries to create a life again. Yet Piper is fighting her own battle, and soon Ava must decide if she's going to fade back into her scars . . . or let the people by her side help her fly. "A heartfelt and unflinching look at the reality of being a burn survivor and at the scars we all carry. This book is for everyone, burned or not, who has ever searched for a light in the darkness." --Stephanie Nielson, New York Times bestselling author of Heaven Is Here and a burn survivor

Book Description

The first thing you will notice when you meet Kechi Okwuchi is her scars. One of just two survivors of a devastating plane crash that killed more than 100 people, 16-year-old Kechi was left with third-degree burns over 65 percent of her body. More Than My Scars is her incredible story. A story of not just surviving impossible odds but thriving in a world that is too often caught up with how we look on the outside rather than seeing that our true value is within. Now in her early 30s, Kechi has spent the last 16 years refusing to be defined by her trauma. Follow her as she decides for herself what role her scars will play in her life before society decides for her. Her strong sense of identity, rooted in seeing herself the way God sees her, has allowed her to live authentically in a world that constantly seeks to define us by its ever-changing (and ever-shallow) standards. Kechi's story will inspire you to love and accept yourself as you are and confidently present your true self to the world.

Book Description

"The Scars I Carry" invites you into the depths of my experiences, offering a collection of poems that chronicle the battles I've endured and the scars they have left behind. This book goes beyond being a simple compilation of verses; it is a profound testament to resilience and the unyielding strength it takes to face each day when the weight of past struggles continues to linger. In those quiet moments of solitude, when the world seems distant and the pain feels overwhelming, it's important to remember that countless others have faced similar battles and are ready to hear your story and help guide you toward a brighter path. Though our journeys are unique, the scars we carry form a bond that transcends our individual experiences. This collection seeks to illuminate that connection, to remind us that while we may endure our pain alone, there is a shared understanding that binds us together. Every poem in this book represents a fragment of my story, a reflection of the silent struggles and the resilience that has brought me to where I am today. These poems are the echoes of nights spent in quiet contemplation and days where every step felt like a monumental effort. They explore the journey of finding light in the darkness and summon the strength to keep moving forward, even when the path ahead is uncertain. As you immerse yourself in these poems, my hope is that you discover pieces of your own story within them. I hope you see your own strength mirrored in these words and understand that while we all confront our battles, we are never truly alone. The scars we carry are not just reminders of our pain; they are symbols of our resilience and our ability to endure and overcome. Through these shared experiences, we can find a sense of community and strength, realizing that together, we can heal and move forward. This book is a testament to the power of connection and the understanding that, despite the unique nature of our individual journeys, we are united by the scars we carry. Each poem is an invitation to reflect, to find solace in the shared human experience, and to embrace the resilience that resides within us all. "The Scars I Carry" is a celebration of our capacity to endure, to heal, and to continue moving forward, no matter how heavy the burden of our past may seem.
