I really liked the story. that it's based on a literary work of harlan coben The pacing felt a bit slow, but I'm still at the beginning, so maybe it'll pick up later. Even so, I can already feel a genuine emotional core.

I used to do this to help with my decision paralysis ("too many books too little time, oh god where do I start" syndrome) but stopped a few years ago when I was navigating a… (edited) read more
When choosing a classic book, it is worth looking at the literary movement it belongs to. You do not need to know the whole history of literature to do this.

I smiled as I read the story; the author presents the plot in a fascinating way, building it up from a simple counting-out rhyme.

breathtaking views of the Garhwal Himalayas, pleasant weather, rich literary heritage, and vibrant local markets.

Whether we believe these adventures are real or not is less relevant than the fact we are expanding our awareness of the fascinating universe. As a man I centre… read more
Good time to start the week with a soon to be published literary piece with graphics. I’m so gonna sleep the whole morning later. College journ life is such a beast.
While watching this gentle, light romantic film, I found myself instinctively placing it in a clear comparison with 500 Days of Summer. A comparison that makes us ask once again: Is love really this complicated? Both works talk about the space between friendship and love, about late confessions and… read more

When I was a teen I was obsessed with Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's Saint Germain. Now I'd probably say ... Gallowglass from the All Souls Trilogy. What about you?
