I will be including a variety of genres in this blog series including self-help; healing, teen romance, mystery, utopian and dystopian societies, etc.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The first book I will be describing is Care Package: A Path to Deep Healing. I really love everything about this beautiful piece of artwork. First and foremost, Sylvester Mcnutt ||| authored this book. He is a famous African American author who is known for his bestselling collection \u201cLust for Life\u201d. Sylvester was born in Chicago, Illinois in 1985 and he is now 37 years of age.\u00a0\u00a0 This book was published on June 4, 2018, when he was 33 years of age. I just wanted to give you guys a little biography of the author, and now we can hop right into it.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-16023 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Care-Package-212x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"212\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Care-Package-212x300.jpg 212w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Care-Package-724x1024.jpg 724w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Care-Package-768x1087.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Care-Package-1085x1536.jpg 1085w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Care-Package-1200x1698.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Care-Package.jpg 1272w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 212px) 85vw, 212px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-16025 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sylvester-McNutt-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sylvester-McNutt-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sylvester-McNutt-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sylvester-McNutt-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sylvester-McNutt-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.msabrookhaven.org\/literary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Sylvester-McNutt.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Anyone who asks me for book recommendations, or what types of books do I read, I always recommend Sylvester McNutt but specifically \u201ccare package\u201d. This book is truly lifechanging. I love it because he doesn\u2019t try to seem too articulate by using so many big words that the common knowledge of people wouldn\u2019t understand. When the words that are being put together are too\u00a0focused in a book, I feel like it disconnects the readers, especially when words are used that most people won\u2019t understand. The book is so personal, and it reads as if you\u2019re having a conversation with the author. He speaks in such a relatable way, and he even says a few curse words, but I think it works great and gives the book a more human feel and shows that none of us are perfect and that we all make mistakes, and that\u2019s okay.\u00a0<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Another reason that this book is so appealing is because he talks about his own experiences good, bad, or traumatic. He\u2019s an open book with the reader no matter how much of a pun that may sound. He tells his experiences and compares and contrasts them to what you may be going through and how he dealt with it. What I really appreciate though is that he never tells you how to fix your problems, because life isn\u2019t a one size fits all solution. There are many things to consider. He gives you advice, and things to look for when going through traumatic events or dealing with toxic people. He lets you know that you\u2019re not alone, but you must\u00a0find the strength to be able to leave those toxic people alone and remove yourself from those horrific situations.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">He writes in a way that doesn\u2019t pressure you or make you feel bad about staying in a bad place, because we all have done it whether we like to admit it or not. We have all made mistakes and been through things, but it\u2019s how you come back from them that matters, and I love how he embraces that theme. I also really enjoy that he doesn\u2019t make it all about himself. He makes you the center of attention and the voice that matters most in the conversation, while not spoiling you too much making you think that your feelings make the world go round. It\u2019s such a validating book that uplifts your spirit out of the dirt, and plants it in potting soil in the biggest vase he could find, because he knows you will flourish.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:259}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hiiii!
