I can't write books so I review them instead
I saw a preview of this novel a while back, and I found the cover and the premise of the story to be interesting enough to place it on my want-to-read list. It finally was released and I was able to get my hands on a copy just now. It’s taken me a while to…
I will admit that I can be a book snob at times. When I first saw this book, I really liked the way it looked and its general premise seemed interesting. But as soon as I read a couple pages and realized it took place in space, I dropped it and decided not to pursue…
I just finished two exams this week – and I felt really really good about them. So I decided to go to Indigo and splurge a little on myself as a reward for my good performance. This novel was one that I chose, as it was resting on the recommended table. I usually do not…
I AM BACK WITH MY OBSESSION FOR NEIL GAIMAN! I had to wait 4 months to get my hands on a copy of this novel; clearly I am a dedicated fan! Anyways, I don’t want to waste any more time so here is my review: Richard Mayhew is a young London businessman with a boring…
I think I saw this book on a list for top horror novels to read during Halloween. I know it isn’t Halloween right now but I can never resist the call for scary books that will give me nightmares (yes, I know I’m weird)! I have had so little time on my hands recently and…

I think I chose this novel because it had an interesting premise. I don’t recall how it is that I stumbled upon it; it certainly wasn’t on any big list that I was following. But either way, I placed a hold on it and waited patiently for a chance to read it. Well, now I…
This novel is definitely on the lighter side for me. It doesn’t have any death or psychological thrills. I’ve noticed that I mostly go for books with a thrill factor and haven’t really explored my realistic fiction side. Growing up, I used to love teen realistic fiction about “real” problems. This novel seemed quite relevant…
I get biweekly newsletters from the library that informs me of the latest novels coming in. I make sure to go through the newsletters thoroughly because a lot of times, I find some amazing novels like The Library at Mount Char. This book is also something that I found through the online newsletter and I…
When someone first told me to read this novel, I didn’t really think that I would like it. I don’t usually like humorous books that have a lot of flirting in it. I prefer more serious and thrilling novels. But I am no book snob so I decided to take the opportunity to get outside…
