I felt

Ashley Sanders is author of the young adult fiction,Facing Demons, and creator of Ōrphic Flux.Ōrphic Flux is a collection of tales inspired by the fascinating lives of strangers.Every soul has a story to tell; a complex, kaleidoscopic mix of emotions and experiences forming life and consciousness.Our individualism and deep universal connectedness, our strength and our fragility, and the way inBRILLIANT! This is one of those books you'll either love or hate and I LOVED IT! I actually couldn't put it down and finished it in one sitting (wasn't hard as it's just shy of 200 pages). I loved the characters and think they're really beautiful. It could've gone into a bit more detail with the nasty pasts of some of the characters so I'm looking forward to this in the prequels. I liked the way it showed each of the characters first person views, even though it was hard to follow at times it
