Ebonwilde by crystal smith7/1/2023 Crystal tied up so many little details into an extraordinary story but it felt so lost and confusing and late. I am both glad and sad to see this series end. But I do believe it shows how exceptional an author Crystal Smith is that she was able to massively change my mind in less than 100 pages. I sobbed multiple times as I finally saw again what made me love the first two books, but it felt hundreds of pages too late. So much beauty and life was packed into those last 80 odd pages. But I wanted to see the story play out, and I’m glad I did. The story was weaved so beautifully in the first two books and I just did not feel that in this one. To the point I consider DNFing it because I was so upset and sad over what this series had become. And I was beyond ecstatic to read the third and final book, but I found it so severely lacking in the first 400 pages. Both of the first two books were five star books, such a rarity in series. Goose girl is a story very near and dear to my heart, and I could tell the same of the author. I adored this series and have been reading almost since the beginning. I am both honored and sad to be the first to write a review for Ebonwilde.

Mcluhan understanding media7/1/2023 Speech is more emotional than the written word, and it conveys meaning in a way that written words cannot. However, with that came a sense of group-think as well. It led to a standardization of ideas and education, which in turn helped people become more individualistic. The printing press made books more accessible to everyone, but it also encouraged people to have their own opinions. Information technology has changed the way we access information, and it’s also changed how we think. This is contrary to what happened when Rome was using paper routes as a way to align tribal cultures under their own centralized authority system-a process called “Romanization.” Electric speeds destroy established roads, creating new centers of power all over the world by re-tribaling Western man through global communications networks like Facebook or Twitter. Increased power and speed in technology will lead to destabilization in established roads of communication. Technology is just a more advanced version of human nature, while words are metaphors that translate experience into understandable forms. Media have affected our institutions, society, and even ourselves. Technology has changed the way we communicate and interact with each other. 1-Page Summary of Understanding Media Technology Evolution
