The Reluctant Fundamentalist by Mohsin Hamid
Page Count: 209 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW I was debating on whether to give this book 3 or 4 stars but I chose 4 simply due to the force at which it kept me reading. It did not conclude with a seriousness/danger that I thought it was building up to, however I know that this isContinue reading “The Reluctant Fundamentalist by Mohsin Hamid”
The Penelopiad by Margaret Atwood
Page Count: 224 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW I enjoyed Atwood’s writing style, and her take on the myth was definitely interesting to read. Though I may not necessarily follow her interpretation of Penelope and the maids, it was very enjoyable to read and I found it fun to ponder – especially near the end where itContinue reading “The Penelopiad by Margaret Atwood”
On Connection by Kae Tempest
Page Count: 144 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW I love this book so much and so many parts have resonated with me and where I am as well as where I have been in my life. How shallow things can feel but how things can get too deep as well. The realisation that I am a stageContinue reading “On Connection by Kae Tempest”
I am Rebel by Ross Montgomery
Page Count: 298 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW This was such a heart-warming story that I read it all in one sitting. Rebel is such a good dog and I love the lengths he will go to to save his boy, even if it puts him so far away from home and into so many dangers. HeContinue reading “I am Rebel by Ross Montgomery”
Hell Followed With Us by Andrew Joseph White
Page Count: 384 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW A fantastic Queer horror story. I loved how religion was fused with body horror and found families. I read most of it in one go and I actually liked the open ending as often I do not but it worked well with the story that was being told. TheContinue reading “Hell Followed With Us by Andrew Joseph White”
The Sun and its Shade by Piper CJ
Page Count: 612 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW I loved this! The characters, the world-building, the slowly complicating yet simplifying plot that tightens and unravels is amazing. There were some sad moments that really hit me due to the jarringness of how they happened but it was fitting with the tone of the characters and the storyContinue reading “The Sun and its Shade by Piper CJ”
The Physics of Climate Change by Lawrence.M.Krauss
Page Count: 168 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW This was a really interesting book exploring the actual facts and figures around climate change. The author breaks these down so we can pinpoint exactly humanity is the cause of it, what these impacts have done, what will happen if we do nothing, and what can happen if weContinue reading “The Physics of Climate Change by Lawrence.M.Krauss”
Between Britain by Alistair Moffat
Page Count: 306 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW It’s book about a journey based on a shared yet divided history. I liked the fact that the author was not afraid of his own opinion and it was a good insight into a nuanced perspective of Britishness, Englishness, and Scottishness and it was interesting to hear a ScotsmanContinue reading “Between Britain by Alistair Moffat”
How to be Invisible by Kate Bush
Page Count: 192 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW I haven’t listened to much Kate Bush so I didn’t get as much out of this as somebody who knew more of her songs would. However, it was fascinating to see how different her lyrics and the topics she covered in them were compared to other contemporary songwriting. SheContinue reading “How to be Invisible by Kate Bush”
