A physiological thriller novella. Starts with an interesting concept. The story flows smoothly and keeps one engaged. It gets a bit confusing in the last act as the reality is revealed, but overall, it's a good, quick read. #bookreview

Book review:
Not your typical gangster romance. A rough start dealing with life and a shady family. The narrative soon settles into a gentle rhythm that reveals a whirlwind, sweet, and cute romance. The two main protagonists are especially mushy and adorable.

Book Review: A grumpy, introvert book seller meets a sunshine loving Aussie travel writer. The pairings and stories in this series keep getting crazier and funnier. This one, however, has a big, dramatic ending. Nope, I am not one to read and tattle. Read it yourself.

Book review time: This is a romcom mashed together with romantic suspense—another great story in the series, where each pairing is unique and linked to British politics or aristocracy.
In this one, read for the banter and stay for the intrigue or spice/whatever gets you off.

A rare gem. If you can, go watch it in theaters. Soft, gentle and touching. A movie where the pauses prod you to dwell on the nuances.

Not all main characters are lovable. This is a high angst and heat story with an MC navigating mental health issues and a lot of baggage. The side characters are delightful.

Folklore and Folktales. We have all grown with them. Either on our grandparents' laps or tucked beside our parents. What better way to celebrate these special bonds than by writing some new stories? Eight authors from all over India collaborated to build this book one story at a time.

Book review: This whole series is a delightful read. Unlike the previous books, the start of this one is sappy and sad before it gets sweet, and oh my god, the pining. The story ends in a happy surprise.

Book Review:
Told from the perspective of a child and set in the backdrop of the Lankan conflict, the story is heartbreaking at points. The keen observant eyes of a child trying to decipher the adult world are vivdly described. But it is also a story of pain and finding oneself.

The story is fast-paced, combining mysticism with sci-fi and space travel.
The concept of using the five elements as a theme for this story was intriguing because, in Hinduism, our bodies are believed to be composed of these five elements and are ultimately returned to them upon death.

Manifesting that someone takes a chance on these boys.
Till then you could read their stories if you still haven't so you can tell me later whether you liked the novel or the movie.
On a serious note.
Which of these would you watch based on the poster?
