From the title and the pretty book cover, this book caught my eye and definitely piqued my interest. As someone who is always interested in learning and understanding different cultures, this felt like the perfect book to read. A curious and unique premise, I had really high hopes for this book but in the end […]
I first learned of the book In Five Years when it started popping up everywhere in my social feed, both in Bookstagram and my personal Instagram account! So I knew I had to check it out. This is the first book that I read of Rebecca Serle and first in the magical realism genre. I […]

Last summer, I happen to discover Fredrik Backman’s work for the first time when I read Anxious People. That book is a masterpiece in my opinion, and I immediately just wanted to read all his other novels after. I read A Man Called Ove next which is probably his most popular work. It has already […]
I’ll admit that I was one of the thousands of people who binge-watched Bridgerton on Netflix. I heard so much buzz around it in 2020 and knowing that this was a creation of the great Shondaland, I knew that I needed to watch it.
