I can't write books so I review them instead
When I saw this title at my library, I knew I had to get my hands on this book. As an Indian-Canadian, I was really excited to read a book that showed what life is like for a child growing up “indian” while being raised in a Western country. So here are my thoughts: Summary…
I really wanted to read something lighthearted recently. I’ve been under a lot of stress in my Masters and I wanted a funny book that would lift my spirits. I’d been seeing this book everywhere and was lucky enough to get my hands on an audio version of it, making my commute to my school…
Thank you to Edelweiss and the publishers for this eARC in exchange for my honest review. When I first read Dumplin’, I absolutely adored it. It was by far one of my favourite teen books and its focus on body image and body positivity was absolutely fantastic. I was super excited to hear about this novel,…
I am a huge fan of Sophie Kinsella, and with Valentine’s Day having just passed, I thought it would be a great time to read a funny romance. I don’t usually like romance novels but I love Kinsella’s style; she’s the only romance writer whose work I enjoy. I was so happy to have gotten…

Tired of living on the road, he accepts the position of night guard at Willard’s. On his…
I like science fiction, but it has been a while since I’ve read anything in this genre. I’ve also never heard of Connie Willis, who is apparently quite well known in the science fiction world. This novel has been getting a lot of hype so I decided to check it out! In the not-so-distant future,…
I love Sophie Kinsella. Whenever I need a book to pick me up out of a bad mood, she is one of the authors I turn to. I loved her Shopaholic series, and would read them cover-to-cover as soon as they came out. I haven’t touched one of her novels in a while but I…
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Yay to cute teen novels!!! I used to love reading cute romance novels when I was younger, and this novel is just such a throwback to those times! After all of the dark thrillers that I’ve been reading, I…
When I read the premise of this novel, I didn’t know what to expect. I didn’t know if it was going to be humorous or dark, if it was going to be steeped in mythology or more of an urban fantasy. Either way, it was too intriguing to not pick up. So here I am,…
This novel is part of the Hogarth Shakespeare project, where bestselling novelists take one of Shakespeare’s works and retell it in their own way. I recently read Hag-Seed by Margaret Atwood (see link here: https://veereading.wordpress.com/2017/01/05/hag-seed-by-margaret-atwood) and was floored by the retold version. This made me more eager to get into this Hogarth Shakespeare project and read other…
