We’re finally in July and I’m one book away from my goal of 35 this year, which I’m very thrilled about.

Today’s… Read More REVIEW: How Creativity Rules the World

It has been a while since I last posted. Life doesn’t get easier, and somehow between a 9-to-6 and maintaining my habit of reading, I’ve decided that expressing my thoughts and feelings for the craft would have to take the backseat.

May marks Asian Pacific month, which is why I’m thrilled to share this book with you today! Growing up, I’ve been surrounded by coffee drinkers, except for my uncle, who has a deep love for tea. I remember his earthen teapots, tea trays, round, stacked, disks of tea leaves, and how he sits at his… Read More REVIEW: Luli and the Language of Tea
Somewhere during the early few months of the year, I’ve been caught in the claws of the love bug and have been reading a ton of romances. While I haven’t been reviewing them here, they will make their appearances very soon. Here’s the first of many. LOVE FROM SCRATCH Genre: Young Adult RomancePublishing Date: April… Read More ARC REVIEW: Love From Scratch
Prior to the pandemic, I often visited art galleries. It’s definitely the thing I missed the most now that quite a few of my favourite ones have permanently or temporarily closed down. This collection mimics the feeling of it though. The author, Galatea, is a photographer who uses her pictures in the collection. Read more… Read More REVIEW: Rebirth
Today I take a break from fantasising my dream home to reading about others’ homes. You know about my love for art and books, and now, I’ve found this gem that includes my third interest, interior design.
