I can’t think of a suitable opening line to review this astounding piece of art that is the book ‘The Song of Achilles’. I am in LOVE – with the book, the story, the narration, the plot line – all of it! I haven’t been the biggest fan of mythology for most of my life…

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…
My First Experience With an Audible Book

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…
My September Reads
After not reading at all in August, I set myself a reasonably doable target of reading two novels in September – a target that I thankfully managed to achieve! (YAYAY!) I finally finished reading ’50 Greatest Short Stories’ a book that I have had for a few years now but just postponed reading. I also…

#3| Hapiness is| Books
Day 3 of my “Happiness Is” photo series. If you haven’t already, do check out my first two posts too! I’ve been reading since I was 6-7 years old. My parents inculcated this habit in me since I was very young. I love reading – it’s such an easy way to escape into another world….
