I’m not going to lie, I started Honor wondering if it was going to be similar to A Burning because topically, both books do look at the Muslim-Hindu tension in India (though Honor also looks at the question of gender) but by the time I finished this, ...more | |

I first heard about How to Change when The Indicator podcast re-published their episode on “How to keep your New Year’s resolutions“. It sounded helpful and since I wanted to take advantage of the ‘fresh start’ effect that January provides, I decided ...more | |

I was randomly looking at my Goodreads To Read shelf, arguably my most neglected TBR list, and I decided to pick up the latest addition on the shelf: The Agathas. I like Christie and I was in the mood for something fun. In the Agathas, former popular- ...more |

This is another book that I got from the book and tea swap last year and one that I’ve heard quite a bit about! I’m always a bit scared to pick up Asian-inspired fantasy because I’m afraid I’ll nitpick at it, but I didn’t have this problem (not sure ...more | |

This has been on the TBR for a while and like many of the TBR books, it has been languishing on the list until I decided I was finally in the mood for MG fantasy. Fablehaven starts when Kendra and her younger brother Seth are shipped off to their gran ...more |

The Silent Companions was so hard to read! Not because the book was bad, but because it was so creepy that I had to stop and take a break at certain points! The Silent Companions starts with Elsie Bainbridge in an asylum. A new doctor, Dr Shepherd, is ...more |

“And it is I, Raksha [The Demon], who answers. The man’s cub is mine, Lungri–mine to me! He shall not be killed. He shall live to run with the Pack and to hunt with the Pack; and in the end, look you, hunter of little naked cubs–frog-eater– fish-killer–he shall hunt thee!”

“The python dropped his head lightly for a moment on Mowgli's shoulders. "A brave heart and a courteous tongue," said he. "They shall carry thee far through the jungle, manling. But now go hence quickly with thy friends. Go and sleep, for the moon sets and what follows it is not well that thou shouldst see.”

“It is you who are unpoetical," replied the poet Syme. "If what you say of clerks is true, they can only be as prosaic as your poetry. The rare, strange thing is to hit the mark; the gross, obvious thing is to miss it. We feel it is epical when man with one wild arrow strikes a distant bird. Is it not also epical when man with one wild engine strikes a distant station? Chaos is dull; because in chaos the train might indeed go anywhere, to Baker Street or to Bagdad. But man is a magician, and his whole magic is in this, that he does say Victoria, and lo! it is Victoria. No, take your books of mere poetry and prose; let me read a time table, with tears of pride. Take your Byron, who commemorates the defeats of man; give me Bradshaw, who commemorates his victories. Give me Bradshaw, I say!”
