Hi everyone, this February we’ll be reading around the largest continent: Asia. Since my interest in diverse reads took off recently, I found that I had collected quite a collection of reads set in Asian countries. Finding ones appropriate for younger readers while knowing the grown ups might want an adult story or two kept me occupied with a large stack of reads over the Christmas break!! So, friends, press further for more info…

Continue reading “Wintry Romances Your Teenager Will Enjoy”Hi friends, this week’s review is one I decided to add at the last minute. It was originally meant for the booklist last week, but after reading it for a third time, I thought it deserved a review post of its own. So, if you are an avid bibliophile like me always looking for the next best read, this is definitely the book for you!!
Continue reading “The Reading List by Sara Nisha Adams”Hi everyone, I hope you are all having a good summer so far. I’m finally enjoying an English summer myself. This week’s children’s title is one I read several years ago and it had quite an impact on me. Sita Brahmachari is an interesting author who has impressed me so I hope you enjoy this lovely story of hers.
Continue reading “Red leaves by Sita Brahmachari”Hi everyone, I planned this post several weeks ago and in the beginning I was intending on giving you a few short reviews in one post. Since then, I’ve had to think really hard about my choices and decided on giving you just one book instead. To be honest, the majority of sports-themed teen reads I found had very few scenes on the field and more indoors, so I had to abandon that strategy and look further. In the end, the title I decided to review came to me by way of one of my colleagues in the library I work for. (Thanks Kathy 🙂) I hope you all enjoy the title I’m sharing with you this week.
Continue reading “Teens and sports”Hi everyone, this last week’s post is a review of an enchanting title that begins a series of diverse reads re-imagining the cult classic that is Jane Austen’s Pride and prejudice. I believe that even if forewarned, one can’t assume much from just a mere review post. You will have to let your curiosity wander through and find out if this read and its subsequent installments fulfill all requirements…

Hi friends, this June I’m celebrating a theme that’s dear to my heart: Sisterhood!! To paraphrase our esteemed Jane Austen; “It’s a truth universally acknowledged that, within any family that’s made up of girls lies an unbreakable bond of sisterhood…” Yes, this month I’m planning on focusing on that unique bond I share with my sister, and the sisters around me. Hope to see you below so I can regale you with what’s in store for you later…
