Recently when I was reading a book about Shakespeare and company, I came across this bookstore. The author mentioned that Lawrence Ferlinghetti who stayed at Shakespeare and Co. opened this bookstore after returning to US. He said this is like a sister bookshop to Shakespeare and Co. and I was immediately interested in visiting this... Continue Reading →
This month I read 4 books from the library which is huge since I normally don't borrow books from the library. One was an audiobook (The immortal life of Henrietta Lacks) and the rest were graphic novels. Graphic Novels from Library: Jerusalem by Guy Delisle - 4 stars - It is a graphical novel which...

Usually, we end up buying books that others recommend to us. Rarely do we browse through synopsis of books and pick books that interest us. I recently shopped for books by just choosing ones that interested me, without checking the reviews online. None of these books were recommended by any of the book reviewers out... Continue Reading →
I randomly picked this book since the premise sounded interesting. I usually don't read YA romance but I am glad I picked this one. This was a fun ride - adventurous, humorous, romantic - all at once. Monty, Percy and Felicity - I loved all the three main characters in this book. This is a must... Continue Reading →

Also when you are travelling,... Continue Reading →
This weekend we went out for probably the first time after the little one made an entry into the world. We did go to hospitals/doctors and dined out few times but never made a day trip with the little one so far. He loves animals just like all the other kids so we thought why not take...

Author: Janice MacLeod Book blurb: “How much money does it take to change your life?” Unfulfilled at her job and unsuccessful in the dating department, Janice MacLeod doodled this question at her desk. Then she decided to make it a challenge. Over the next few months, with a little math and a lot of determination, she... Continue Reading →
I love to travel and looks like this travel bug caught me quite early in life. One of the reasons for liking travel is probably the nomadic nature of my early life when we switched cities every few years. It was fun relocating to an entirely new city, going to a new school in a totally... Continue Reading →
