REVIEW: How Creativity Rules the World

We’re finally in July and I’m one book away from my goal of 35 this year, which I’m very thrilled about. Despite being busy with my internship, reading (and watching Netflix) has been my way of trying to keep my sanity and remind me of who I am outside of the (somewhat unpredictable) 9-to-6. Today’s… Read More REVIEW: How Creativity Rules the World

REVIEW: The Woman in the Library

If I can only recommend one book this year, this might be a contender. I consider this to possibly be the best crime/mystery book I’ve ever read. The Woman in the Libraryby Sulari Gentill BOOK SUMMARY In every person’s story, there is something to hide… The ornate reading room at the Boston Public Library is… Read More REVIEW: The Woman in the Library

REVIEW: Around the World in 80 Books

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. While I am juggling around 5 books at the moment, reviews will be slow… Read More REVIEW: Around the World in 80 Books

BOOK REVIEW: Meant to be Mine

Today’s book was truly refreshing. It’s one I’ll highly recommend, which is rare for me since I’m not a big reader of romance but I’m excited to explore more of this author’s book. I won’t take up any more of your time. Let’s get into it. Meant to be Mineby Hannah Orenstein get it here… Read More BOOK REVIEW: Meant to be Mine

REVIEW: All You Need

We’re nearing the middle of the year, and honestly, I can’t believe how quick it has been. Not too long ago, I was writing about my reading goals for the year. Somehow, we’re in May. It’s terrifying. Today’s book is a little open to self-interpretation and possibly, reflection. It’s a good segue into the idea… Read More REVIEW: All You Need

It has been a while since I’ve reviewed poetry and we’re slowly getting through that long list from May two years back.

REVIEW: Luli and the Language of Tea

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

ARC REVIEW: Love From Scratch

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

REVIEW: Rebirth

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

ARC Review: Artist in Residence

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. While it’s less about the design, but more about the artists’ life, this one is still a fairly… Read More ARC Review: Artist in Residence
