How to Be Perfectly Unhappy by Matthew Inman

This book is by the author of 'The Oatmeal' comics. Though I am not an avid follower of this series, I found this very thought-provoking. Instead of a set of separate comics, the entire set focuses on the single statement mentioned in the title. There is something very serious presented in simple caricatures that will…

The Lost Empress by Steve Robinson

This book brought back the pace of the first two books of the series, which was missing in the third book. The previous good books were : To the Grave (Jefferson Tayte Genealogical Mystery #2) In the Blood (Jefferson Tayte Genealogical Mystery #1) by Steve Robinson This case brings Jefferson Tayte back to England ,…

The Year of Pleasures by Elizabeth Berg

This is the second book that I have read of the author and the recurring( if the word recurring can be used for two times) theme has been of an older woman in a life changing juncture and what she does with it consists the body of the tale. This book is peppered with bits…

Night Road by Kristin Hannah

I primarily borrowed this book to confirm if it was the story that captivated me in The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah or if it was the author's storytelling style. I have come to a conclusion that it might be both. Two books however is a small sample space and this definitely means I will be on the…

Fowl Language: The Struggle Is Real by Brian Gordon

This book is a collection of comic strips which I follow almost religiously on Facebook. Surprisingly the book contained quite a few that I had not come across earlier.Even if it contained more repetitions it would still have been the enjoyable read it was. They contain heartfelt confessions from the point of view of a…

Good Omens by Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman

This book focuses on the most basic of all questions or battles, good vs evil where the rules of either side seem stringent. We see an angel from the good side who has befriended the fallen angel from the evil side. They have been patiently waiting out the big end and it may be just…
