Today is Emily Zylaz’s birthday. This is the day that she has chosen to kill herself. After struggling for many years to cope with the roller-coaster of mental illness, a devastating failed marriage, and a soul-destroying career that is going nowhere, she’s giving up. Feeling like the only solution to all of her problems is to take her own life, Emily plans to hang herself at midnight. She believes no one will care that she’s dead, that she won’t be missed, and that everyone will be better off without her and her fickle moods. As we journey alongside Emily, counting down the hours on her last day alive, we explore the twisted labyrinth of her troubled mind and learn why she so desperately wants to die.

About the Author Tasmanian born Roni Askey-Doran has spent her life seeking adventure, happiness and inner peace, in spite of her tumultuous and traumatic history. A gypsy at heart, Roni also has a whacky sense of humour which shines through in her writing. Filled with passion, sometimes fueled by rage, and powered by a desire to share her stories, Roni writes both from her heart and from her experiences. Roni has lived or traveled in forty-six countries over the past three decades, frequently under the radar and off the grid. Despite her nomadic tendencies, she’s an accomplished chef, talented wordsmith, avid gardener, and her wandering feet dance to more than one beat. Like a cat with nine lives, Roni has survived, even thrived on the challenges destiny has thrown her direction and, through storytelling, shares her adventures using vivid lexiconic imagery and a writing style that has readers eagerly turning page after page. Now a full-time beach-bum, Roni currently resides in a bamboo shack on a remote beach in South America with three cats, two opossums, a non-venomous Granadilla snake, some tree frogs, a large green iguana and several species of tropical birds and butterflies. A large huntsman spider named Horacio resides in her bathroom. She’s addicted to bananas, loves to cook fresh seafood with coconuts, is passionate about her tropical garden, and makes her own chocolate.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. but I am so pleased I did read Broken By Pauline Well written and an emotional page turner. The author sent me a copy of this book and I admit at first when I read the description I didn't think it was for me, but I am so pleased I did read Broken. The author has the ability to get right inside her character's head and deliver to the reader what is going on there. I have no problem recommending this book. Put it on your to read list!
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. 'Broken' doesn't always mean irreparable! By T. Sanders **As a full disclosure, I was given free copy of this book in exchange for my honest thoughts ... honestly, now that I've read it, if I'd not recently depleted my Amazon credit balance, I would be PURCHASING a copy of it just to give it the legitimate rating it deserves!This is a gripping, emotional tale of one woman's journey of self-discovery. I was skeptical at the beginning, not knowing how the author was going to offer an entire book about a single day's worth of thoughts and actions of the main character, Emily, who has decided to end her life on this particular day. To my delight, my original ambivalence about the pages being filled with depressing, suicidal musings, was unfounded.Though some of it is a bit redundant, the author adds another important element to the story with each chapter. Each day is like a mental journal entry until the story finally unfolds in the most surprising, amazing way that I never saw coming!The writing is engaging and precise. The most impressive thing is the way the author weaves occasional, brief flashbacks into Emily's current thoughts without needing to devote an entire chapter or section to these memories. It's easy to follow and breaks up the current events in an enchanting way that adds helpful backstory on the characters. The one thing that kind of threw me was the way the author waited until the very end to describe Emily's appearance in detail. I can see why, but for the majority of the time, I had to conjure her up in my own mind. And she did not match the image I had created.Though this book is fiction, one doesn't have to have any experience with suicide or mental illness to connect with this story. Anyone who has ever experienced loss, death, or even despair could be enlightened by it. The truth of the matter is, we are all broken in some way or another.I will definitely be reading more from this author!
1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Well handled, engrossing book with a tough subject to work with. By Kat Caffee I was given a copy of this book for free in exchange for an unbiased review.I like stories that take you on an emotional roller coaster ride while you're reading through them. However, I do not like tales of suicide or self-mutilation, and so when I was asked for a review of this book, I almost declined before I even started. Once I opened the cover, I was in even more doubt, and settled in for a difficult read.Then Roni turned the tables on me, and sent me flying through the pages. This is not an easy read, as there are atrocities in the character's life that she has to deal with on her own, and with very little support from her family. Yet, even when the story dives into the darkest actions one human can inflict on another, it is handled with simplicity, dignity, and as much elegance as possible while staying true to the story.This is a very fast paced, tightly written story designed from the first sentence to keep the pages turning and make it hard to put down. The glimmers of light that are cast out when everything seems blackest provide a new level of tension, along with a heightened element of "What will happen next?"The narrative alone carried this story for me, as I saw very little in the way of character development. Usually, when introduced, the characters have to grow into their final person, yet in this book, you are introduced to the final person first. The rest of the tale is a series of flashback regressions that explain how this person got to where they are. Definitely an interesting approach, and one I haven't seen done so well before. When the history of the character has been set out, the story begins stitching the pieces together, showing how the jigsaw fits together to make a complete picture. It is here where the word-smithing of Roni really gets to gleam. She has shown each of the facets of the characters involved in the history at one point or another, and now she shows the composite. At no point through the tale do any of the characters feel like a paper cut-out, even if you can't tell just where the depth is... yet.Though it is a hard read (content wise), I look forward to coming back and reading again when I can pry the 8 to 10 hours it will take to get through it. Just to see how many layers Roni has tucked away between these covers.
