Murdering Romance by Kendi Karimi
A Wakini Kuria Prize & African Writers Awards shortlisted author
Murdering Romance is a story about Mukami who simply wanted to experience an actual authentic moment of genuine love and call it her own. But let the title not lull you into thinking that the book is solely about romance. It is much more. The author first portrays Mukami as this lady who seems to be on a revenge mission disguised as a pursuit of love but as the plot thickens, the storyline evolves into other deeper issues. The book delves deep into several themes including domestic violence, toxic masculinity, femininity, absentee parents and abuse, among others.
Often there is a gulf of difference between fiction and non-fiction but in Murdering Romance, the dissimilarity between the two is too blurred to discern.

Captivity is one of the biggest achievements that a writer should rejoice in whenever their story masters it. For a story to be a masterpiece, the reader should be captivated to the point of not wanting to stop reading while wishing the story should not end.
This is what Kendi Karimi’s story has done to me. Rather than call ‘Our Brief Heavenly Hour’ a short story, it would fit perfectly as a ‘Personal Letter’.
“Kendi, you have a deep-rooted philosophical soul that is unparalleled in verse! Your poetic style is quite unique.”

About the book
Stories are never just stories the same way love isn't just love or hate just hate. With love, you make the life-altering decision to live and die by your lover's side when marriage come along. With hate, you bully a child into submission, into self-loathing, into depression.
With stories, you tell about your share of pain and joy, love and hate and in doing so, you knit a lovely invisible creation that sheds light on culture and history as is in your time. You have the chance to immortalize something with a story, a chance to shine the torch on life. These stories, these histories, are poetic, vivid, full.
Life in no order is a collection of short stories that talk about life, in no order.

The Big Chiefs by Meja Mwangi
Men would talk, as men do, about love and money and power and politics and, acting learned, they would try to outdo one another with their knowledge and their understanding of the political realities and the absurd policies, that bred hate and poverty and genocides.
They would ask themselves and one another questions that were often impossible to understand and even harder to answer.
Did bad politics breed poverty or did poverty breed bad politics? Opinions were many and varied. Friends argued and sometimes came to blows over their views.

No girl is limited by Peter Mbuthia
This book is dedicated to the girl child. The two main characters are the dad and his daughter, where the dad is encouraging her to be a curious person, to be a critical thinker, and to ask questions with the view of gaining knowledge and elevating her self-esteem and confidence and therefore setting herself upon an exciting process of self - empowerment. In a society where the girl child faces ever-increasing challenges, she requires mentors who will walk with her as she is growing up. The girl needs to be affirmed that she is equally competitive and that her dreams are as valid as for those of everyone else. The first and most important line of mentoring should be her parents, especially her dad, who should be fully present and fully engaged in her life. Important lessons for how a girl will relate to the opposite gender are learned from her dad. If her dad treats her well, she will feel secure and confident. This book is relevant for the boy child as well, but the author intends to pay special attention to the girl child.

It has really changed my life,
Brought life to my dry bones,
Given life to my lifeless situations.
It has made my soul that was so void Turn into a complete and lifeful one.
It has turned my loneliness into solitude.
The lone space that would eat me up,
Now renews me as I only get there to commune with You.
Oh! Holyspirit my Lord.
Being with You.

Pruned to Bloom by Linus W. Mbuu
This is a Christian thriller fiction book.
In a world where we have sovereign power (free will) to choose whatever we wish to do, in our fallen nature we have the tendency to choose darkness over light. What we have no control over are the consequences attaching to our respective choices. Some of our choices prune us to bloom, while some lead to eternal destruction.
The unbridled in the spirit continuously add to the bank of their wickedness, unknowingly fattening themselves for the day of their slaughter. The day of reckoning for Rasta, Terminator and Stout dawned with their eyes set expectantly on an attractively glittering mirage.
However, before the dusk could usher in the darkness that often covered the nudity of their evil hearts, they were sizzling literally in a lake of fire as their lives ebbed away in dishonor. However, one smoldering remnant was rescued from the flames, mercifully redeemed to bloom again in dignity.
Hercules on the other hand hang on a different cross but was lucky to have been let go half-naked wading through stinging nettles that set him off in sores to walk barefoot in a territory where the scepter of the wicked reigned every night.
He was pruned off his lust, pride and immorality escaping with his life by the skin of his teeth, reformed to transform the souls and lives of others.
