I lied in the title. First, I didn’t read anything spooky. Second, there were no reads only READ. With the craziness that was October, I only managed to read one book. I got gifted a few books for my birthday and I had hoped to read them all but grief, depression and anxiety were unwelcome…

Book Review| The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V. E. Schwab
“I remember you.” I finished this book a few hours back and I want to write this review now before I forget all the emotions this book made me feel. I haven’t read a lot over the past month and was drifting looking for a new book to read. I usually screenshot book recommendations from…
April 2021 Reads + Book Review
This is going to be a short post considering I barely read anything this month. With everything that happened this month, reading was extremely low on my list of to-do activities. I instead chose to spend my free time watching re-runs of comfort shows like Gilmore Girls, Modern Family and The Middle. If you’re wondering…
Book Review| Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz
February has been so good to me reading wise! 3 books down and all 3 turned out so good. It’s been a long time since I’ve had such luck with books and I hope it continues for me. I just finished this book a few hours back and it is still sinking in – but…
Book Review | Circe By Madeline Miller
‘Circe‘ by Madeline Miller is my second read for this month. After reading ‘The Song of Achilles’ I had this crazy urge to read everything Madeline has ever written. A lot of you, also, recommended the book in my review post of ‘The Song of Achilles’ . And so with really high expectations, I sat…
January 2021 Reads
The first month of the year saw me get through a few books. I usually target 2 books a month but despite being extremely busy this month I managed to read 4 books. When I say read I mean I read 2 books and listened to 2 on audibles (that counts, right?). Though I’m still…
Review| My November Reads
This month was so perfect for snuggling in and reading but instead I snuggled in and binged watched shows. I only managed to read 2.5 books which I wouldn’t have considered bad if I would have read every single day. I took long breaks between the books. I’m not going to include the half book…
October Reading| Review| ‘Chosen Ones’ By Veronica Roth
I slipped back on my reading in October. I only managed to read one book in this entire month – I blame me, I got lazy and didn’t feel like reading these past 2 weeks. But boy oh boy, the one book that I read turned out to be quite the page turner. I randomly…
6 | Review | A Horse Walks into a Bar by David Grossman
This book has been a real challenge for me to read. I bought it in January and finally finished it a few days back in July! Before you start judging the book too badly, it won the ‘The Man Booker International Award’ in 2017. STORY: Dovaleh Greenstein is an ageing comedian who is performing a…
5 | Review | ‘A River in Darkness: One Man’s Escape from North Korea’ by Masaji Ishikawa
While looking for books to read on Kindle Unlimited, I saw this book and decided to give it a try. I’ve always wanted to get a glimpse into life in North Korea considering it’s a closed country. This is the true story of Masaji Ishikawa and his escape from North Korea. Masaji was born in…
