The Testaments by Margaret Atwood – Thoughts

Book Discussion: How did you find The Testaments in comparison to The Handmaid’s Tale? I really respect Margaret Atwood as an author and I do think she deserved the Booker Award.

Women & The Weight Loss Tamasha by Rujuta Diwekar – Thoughts

I gave this book a 5-star for being a really entertaining, fact filled and motivating non-fiction read. Women and weight loss have become like two sides of a coin. We just seem to always be stressing about it and almost never getting it right. I haven’t read Rujuta’s first popular book on this subject –Continue reading “Women & The Weight Loss Tamasha by Rujuta Diwekar – Thoughts”

The Book of Life (Book #3 of All Souls Trilogy) by Deborah Harkness – Audiobook thoughts

A grand finale to a grand series. Finally, after years and hours of listening to the audiobook, I’m glad I was able to finish the series. I liked the final book much more than the second one. But my favorite will still be the first book of the series, because of the fact that thereContinue reading “The Book of Life (Book #3 of All Souls Trilogy) by Deborah Harkness – Audiobook thoughts”

Audiobook review: Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman

My Rating: 4 Stars Author & Book: Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman Genre: Mythical fiction Another audiobook that I really enjoyed because of Neil Gaiman’s voice over, I would say.
