A few books I've spotted that were being cleared on the Nile for around $7.50. First two come with possible trigger warnings (definitely the second). Third is a colouring book I've posted before. It was a little cheaper last time but I think there were only a few copies.
When you were little: A tale of the pandemic Hardcover – 14 December 2020 $7.53 (RRP $24.96)
In the year 2020, the world was rocked by the COVID-19 virus, and our lives as we knew them were suddenly turned upside-down. 'When you were little' tells the story of the COVID-19 pandemic as told by a new mother raising a baby during that moment in history.
A tale to be told for years to come; this is a story for all of the new parents who never imagined that they would be raising babies during a global pandemic, but who did it anyway, with strength and love.
The story is written in future perspective, with optimism that one day the COVID-19 pandemic will be a distant memory, and provides a beautiful silver lining to the difficult reality of having a baby in 2020 or 2021.
Half a Pack of Cigs and a Lighter that Doesn't Work Paperback – 11 February 2021 $5.61 (RRP $28.37)
A powerful heart-wrenching collection of pieces from the journals of Dylisium for the past six years. This book is not for the faint of heart, which she has made adamantly clear in one of the first pages painted in trigger warnings. The book follows her raw and honest emotions starting with a heart-shattering break up through sadness, depression, and suicidal thoughts. Coming out on the other end is a very strong, yet broken human falling in love again and continually filled with hesitation. It's clear it took a lot of strength to write the book and it will take an even stronger person to read it. Guaranteed, it will be worth it. Trigger warnings: Addiction, Suicidal tendencies, Drug use, Self-hatred, Self-harm, Domestic violence, Heavily tainted with foul language
