Tenesha L. Curtis has been a lover of the dark, disturbing, and deviant since childhood. In her kindergarten and elementary school years, her favorite movies included classics like "Chucky," "Problem Child," "Candyman," and "Adventures in Babysitting." As she learned to read, she finally broke away from Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys (at the behest of a middle school teacher) and delved into reading literature from artists like Toni Morrison, Edgar Allan Poe, Patricia Cornwell, Mildred D. Taylor, Alvin Schwartz, Ayn Rand, and Maya Angelou. Her fascination with the human psyche led her to earning a master's degree in addictions psychotherapy and working in the mental health world for over a decade. She uses this training and experience to influence straightforward books on writing made especially for newbie authors, and thrilling works of fiction in various genres.

Fancy la Dulce Vita

Awesome Read that keeps you on the Edge till the end

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2017

"Show Her" written by T.L. Curtis was an awesome read. I would definitely recommend this book to several of my women friends. I think that the main character "Erika" is someone many women can relate to on many levels. The constant programming that most women hear growing up is to always be on your best behavior and always look presentable, there is never an excuse not to. This novel starting off was quite disturbing when I got to the father/daughter interaction in the bathroom. I literally had to put the book down and walk away for a day or two because of how mentally disturbing and ill it made me. But as per the other reviews, it was definitely a read worth going back too. Though I felt that the prologue was a bit disjointed rather than flowing into the main story line it still proved to be an excellent read. Again, in this book I could really identify with Erika on so many levels, the need to be at my best at all times and also the pain of not receiving the appreciation that is deserved in so many areas in a woman's life. It seemed that all was perfect for appearance's sake to the world via the blog Erika wrote and the image she portrayed daily. But sadly it was all just a show that she was putting on and even though she taught the students how to be better Masters/Handlers, she herself forgot some of the rules she gave them. It was a business transaction but she allowed her feelings to get involved and she became her mother, no matter how hard she tried not to. Don't get me wrong Erika went way beyond what was required in order to possibly retain her place in her Handler's life and I thought for a very brief moment she had devised a way to make him pay for not giving her the love she really desires from him. But as a line in the story says "Everyone knows you can't force a man to come back if he doesn't want to", it seems a lesson that Erika learned as a child but did not remember as an adult in her situation. The other Characters were interesting but I was not a Fan of Alice she seemed to be more judgmental of who Erika had become and showed a bit of jealousy over how men would fawn over Erika when they were younger, But I did like Vincent though I lost all respect for him when he basically just handed her over without a fight. Overall, it was an excellent book and one I would recommend any woman to read, most may have a really strong reaction to the beginning of the book but once past that grotesque portion of the story, it is an excellent read.

Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2017

Overall, I cannot say that I enjoyed this book. Even though it is set in a dystopian setting (and I love dystopian novels), there is a lot of underdevelopment throughout the story. The introduction, while serving to help understand the past of the main character, does not really tie into the rest of the story. The ending of this part was also graphic, too graphic for the situation that was being described.

Erika was an interesting character but the story was too short to really develop her fully. There is some insight into how mental health and past experiences can shape a person and lead to specific ways of thinking and actions. While these areas do hold some interest, you don't really get a true sense of who she is. It is hard to connect to her as a character and really get invested in her journey.

The writing throughout the book was also choppy. The flow seemed to jump around and some areas became hard to follow. There was a lot of disconnection as new characters were introduced it took some focus to understand how and why they were interacting with the main character. Also, there were areas where it felt like sexual scenarios were thrown in simply to keep it "edgy." I think that the story shows promise but would need to be longer and re-worked in order to really develop the characters and create a flow that draws the reader in.

A deep emotional journey that will have you rethinking your views on society and different types of people.

Reviewed in the United States on May 25, 2017

When I think novella, I think a short little story with not much to it, that is basically to pass the time. Well, this book totally changed my mind about that. Despite that it is short (and for that reason the plot unfolded quickly and in a relatively predictable manner), it still managed not only to catch and keep my interest but it really had me reflect on society and on how it can influence a person, especially one that is already damaged.

While on the train of thought of reflecting on society, my favorite part of the story, is the part that incited just that in me. It is when Erica explains how from the ideology of feminism, society changed to masters/handlers. Not only did it make matters clear to me and not only is it a central part of the story, but the concept was so logical and interesting that it was just the highlight of the whole book to me. It's the idea that really raised my opinion of the book and that it was so consistent and deeply a part of Erica's journey, just made it all the more important and compelling to me.

Erica's journey had a very real and sad event in her youth happen to her, that shaped her outlook on life. Whether that outlook is right or wrong, is for every reader to decide, but I appreciate how it not only shaped her as a person but also shaped how the story unfolded. It was the driving force for the events that happened. It gave the story depth and “meatiness” that is rare to find in contemporary novels much less futuristic tragic novellas.

Despite that I call this book a tragedy, it still did inspire a bit of hope in me with the character of Alice. She not only felt compassion and understanding for those she helped as a social worker, but also she had an equal relationship with her husband. That made me feel better and hopeful for today's society, since I completely believe it could actually end up like the one described in the book (and I don't know if I'd care for that type of society). She gave me the hope that even if society really did become like described in the book, different types of relationships could exist and like minded people could still find each other. That said, the book is a tragedy, and overall I just felt sad for Erica. I also felt disappointed in Victor, who when push came to shove, didn't stand by his (albeit unrequited) love for Erica and let disillusionment get the better of him. In fact, that was one of my least favorite parts.

Overall I found this story to be very believable, I can easily see society, evolving or devolving, (depending on your point of view) into the one described and that made it very, very, interesting to me. That said, I don't like books that have a not happy or at least hopeful ending. I read for pleasure, so a book that is all around tragic doesn't usually sit well with me, still, I gave it what for me, is a high rating for a tragic story, simply because the narrative was compelling and clear, and this book's idea was really interesting to me. I really appreciate books that make me reflect on matters, be they deep or superficial. Like for example how in the new paradigm “balanced” and “equal” are not synonymous. New ideas are one of the things I love most in life, which is why I can firmly say that this is hands down the best tragedy I have ever read.

I would highly recommend this book to someone who is interested in a new and very possible social paradigm when it comes to relationships. If you like to think about social issues or how a person's mindset or traumas affects them, this is the book for you. If you want a short but deep read, this is also the book for you. However, if you are just looking for some light entertainment, you should probably pass on this book.
