“But She Looks Fine: from Illness to Activism,” by Olivia Goodreau, Available Now from Histria Books
Olivia Goodreau’s book But She Looks Fine: From Illness to Activism chronicles her journey from being an ordinary teenager to becoming a leading voice in the fight against Lyme disease. The book is a gripping account of her struggle with the illness, the challenges she faced, and the determination that drove her to become an activist.
Olivia’s journey began when she was bitten by a tick at the age of 6. Despite experiencing debilitating symptoms, she was repeatedly told by doctors that there was nothing wrong with her, until she finally got diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2013. This experience inspired her to become an advocate for others who are struggling with chronic illnesses and to raise awareness about the prevalence and dangers of Lyme disease.
But She Looks Fine: From Illness to Activism is a testament to Olivia’s bravery and resilience in the face of adversity. Through her personal story, she shares important insights into the world of chronic illness and the need for greater understanding and support for those who are affected.
Olivia is now a leading voice in the fight against Lyme disease and has been recognized for her work by numerous organizations, including the Global Lyme Alliance and the Lyme Disease Association. She has also been featured in several media outlets, including The New York Times, Good Morning America, and Today.
Sheryl Sandburg, Chief Operating Office at Facebook says, “Young people are changing the world – and Olivia is proof.” Kirkus Reviews calls it “a tale of persistence amid invisible illness that offers insightful advice.”
But She Looks Fine: From Illness to Activism is a must-read for anyone who is living with chronic illness or who wants to learn more about the struggles that those with chronic illness face. It is a powerful reminder that, even in the face of tremendous challenges, one person can make a difference and create positive change in the world.

Two new consciousness‑style paperbacks on Amazon, Author Ruby Dosanjh has released, expanding a growing body of atmospheric, introspective fiction. The titles — Likewise and Otherwise — explore the quiet emotional shifts that happen between two people who are paying attention.
The first release, Likewise, is a story about subtlety and mirrored feeling. It follows the second meeting that changes the first, the presence that fits too perfectly, and the kind of recognition that arrives without language. Described as “a quiet echo,” the book offers a soft, atmospheric experience for readers who sense emotional shifts before they can name them. Some connections linger — not because they’re forced to, but because they belong.
The second paperback, Otherwise, moves into deeper territory. It traces the moment reflection becomes truth, when two people think of each other without stopping and without softening it into something smaller. What begins as quiet awareness grows into something unmistakable — familiar, unsettling, and impossible to ignore. Otherwise follows the slow, honest shift from noticing to knowing, and the quiet courage it takes to stop pretending nothing is happening.
Together, the releases mark a clear evolution in Ruby Dosanjh’s one‑word consciousness series — stories that move gently, speak quietly, and leave a lasting imprint. Both paperbacks are now available worldwide on Amazon.

Balle Balle Radio™ Entertainment Desk
Sebastian Clark has released "How To Read People Like A Book: The Subtle Art of How to Analyze People and Speed-Reading to decode Body Language, Intentions, Thoughts, Emotions, Behaviors, and Connect Effortlessly!", first published in 2022, according to an announcement received by Studio CarryOnHarry.
The book lands in a crowded shelf of nonverbal-communication guides. Its own marketing places it alongside Allan and Barbara Pease’s "The Definitive Book of Body Language," Joe Navarro’s "What Every BODY is Saying," and Thomas Erikson’s "Surrounded by Idiots" — three long-running titles that have anchored the popular body-language genre for years. Clark’s book positions itself as a newer entry covering similar ground: understanding facial expressions, gestures, posture, and vocal tone to reveal someone’s actual thoughts.
According to the announcement, the book walks through strategies applicable across various contexts including professional environments, social gatherings, and interpersonal connections — with the stated aim of helping readers spot emotions and intentions that go unspoken. Listed topics include facial expression and gesture analysis, context-specific body language decoding, interpreting non-verbal communication, reading vocal cues for emotional undertone, and trusting intuitive reads of subtle signals. The work is categorized within social science studies.
No further biographical detail on Clark accompanied the announcement, and independent listings for the title largely repeat the same publisher description rather than adding new information about the author or the book’s reception since 2022.
Studio CarryOnHarry Perspective
At Studio CarryOnHarry, we’re interested in whether books like Clark’s deliver on their practical promise. The appeal of body-language guides lies less in theory and more in real-world application—the job interview where you’re trying to gauge whether the hiring manager is genuinely interested, the first date where mixed signals leave you uncertain, the negotiation where knowing if the other party is bluffing matters financially. Clark’s positioning across "professional environments, social gatherings, and interpersonal connections" suggests he’s aware readers want transferable skills, not just academic frameworks. The question worth asking: does his approach to vocal cues, facial analysis, and contextual interpretation actually equip readers to make better decisions in these high-stakes moments? Or does it risk reinforcing the confidence-without-accuracy trap that plagues intuitive people-reading? For readers considering this purchase, the gap between what body language can reliably tell us and what we wish it could tell us deserves scrutiny.
