Every now and again, a book comes around that takes readers by the collar and pulls them in, making them obsessed with it. We see everyone gushing about it and praising it to high heavens. But then that crest begins to plateau and the disappointments start rolling in. The whole ‘Booktok lied to me’ and ‘Finally here’s an honest review’ thing starts, which is a rather questionable stand to take (a discussion for a different day, perhaps). The same thing happened with Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros and I obviously wanted to get in on the action. One, because of it being everywhere and hard to miss. Two, because of that GORGEOUS cover! And I did read it.

The Midnight Library by Matt Haig – Book Gush & Book Recommendation!
I usually start off my reviews with a little bit of an introduction as to how I came across an author or how much I love their writing or some little anecdote about something related to the book and/or author.

Wonder Woman: Warbringer by Leigh Bardugo | Book Review
When I, through the wonderful BookTube community, came to know about the existence of Leigh Bardugo’s Wonder Woman: Warbringer, my eyes popped out of my head and I immediately knew I HAD to read it. And though I bought this book a few months ago, it was only recently (this, too, was a couple of months ago :P) that I picked it up and became ready to walk among the Amazons, learning more about the life of the wonderful woman called Wonder Woman. [I did that on purpose and not because I don’t know any adjectives. :P]
Aqson Level 1 by Sreejib | Book Review
Aqson Level 1 has been written by Koel Ganguli under the pseudonym, Sreejib. She uses this name because it is her late husband’s name. And despite my reservations about how the story has been written, I still feel that she has done a commendable job in bringing the story together.
