I stopped writing book reviews on my Blog since a while now. I know I loved writing these reviews but I realised that I was reading faster than I had the time to write long review blogs for the books I read and so I just stopped. However, I did still want to list myContinue reading “Favourite Reads/Books from 2021”

Coffee, Books, Shows and Things That Bond Us
The other day, when I walked to the kitchen to have a glass of water, I overheard my mother talking with the excitement of a teenager with her sister about the latest shenanigans from the show they were watching together. I smiled to myself and thought of last Sunday, when I spent an hour onContinue reading “Coffee, Books, Shows and Things That Bond Us”
Gratitude Journal #3 – Books
I mean, this was expected, wasn’t it? A huge thank you to stories. All the stories I’ve grown up reading. All the stories that saved me. All the stories that are still saving me. And where do these stories live? You got it – books! Before I get down to thanking Books, I have toContinue reading “Gratitude Journal #3 – Books”

Life Diaries and Reading Wrap Up – May 2021

Stay At Home Series – Episode 11 : From Beach Bum to Book Bum
Two years back, I would have said I was a beach bum. Not in the absolute sense of the term, but yes, at least twice a year you would find me either traveling near a water body or talking about traveling to a water body. Then towards the end of 2019, right when I wasContinue reading “Stay At Home Series – Episode 11 : From Beach Bum to Book Bum”
Book Talk Series – A Lot of Finales
I couldn’t make myself write a single post in April. There were many times when I wanted to write about hope, about being positive, about heartbreak, and struggle and frustration and anger. But every time I decided to open my laptop to do so, I couldn’t make my fingers type. I don’t believe in God,Continue reading “Book Talk Series – A Lot of Finales”
