Discover Best novel of the year

Books open doors in our minds, allowing us to live an entire lifetime and travel the world without even leaving the comfort of our chairs.

When we read a book, we step into someone else’s shoes, see the world through someone else’s eyes, and visit places we might never otherwise go, whether a tiny village in India or the green fields of Narnia.

1. Milk teeth by Amrita Mahale

For a debut novel Amrita Mahale’s Milk Teeth comes across as a fairly decent read. Set in Mumbai, or rather I must say the world that was once Bombay, it weaves a simple tale of friendship and love. From the changing face of a city to the changes in gen next, the book captures more than just middle class aspirations. It pulls in the right emotions, oozing out excessive nostalgia of a society that once was. (Book review)

2.The Da vinci code by Dan Brown

The Da Vinci Code is a 2003 mystery thriller novel by Dan Brown. It is Brown's second novel to include the character Robert Langdon: the first was his 2000 novel Angels & Demons. The Da Vinci Code follows "symbologist" Robert Langdon and cryptologist Sophie Neveu after a murder in the Louvre Museum in Paris causes them to become involved in a battle between the Priory of Sion and Opus Dei over the possibility of Jesus Christ having been a companion to Mary Magdalene.(Book Review)

3.The 48 laws of power by Robert Greene

Peculiarly all self help books have theme that it provide you with some improvement advise. Most of the time this advise is one sided. It does not take into consideration what will happen if this advise is not followed or when not to follow the given advise. 48 laws of power gives you both sides of coin make it much clear to implement the ideas.(Book Review)

on the come up by Angie thomas book review

🌼BOOK REVIEW🌼 Rating: 5/5⭐️ . . QOTD: What was the last book you gave a 5 ⭐️ rating? . . Angie Thomas’s writing is a gift to readers. Is that dramatic? Indeed. But I loved The Hate U Give so much, so I’m being truly earnest when I say that On The Come Up, her sophomore book, was amazing! . 🌸SYNOPSIS🌸 Seventeen-year-old Bri wants to make it as one of the greatest rappers of all time. She doesn’t just want to- she has to if it means saving her family from homelessness and filling their fridge with food. But it’s hard to get your come up when you’re labelled as “trouble” at school and Bri has to push through the prejudice to fight for her dreams. . 🌸 REVIEW🌸 This novel was brilliant, in all of its awareness and authencity. I felt Bri’s myriad of emotions as she struggled to do the right thing, even when she was admonished over and over again. Bri was a stubborn and hot-headed character, often making decisions that had even me, the most emphatic per...

Stop smoking e-book

This book is intended to address the biggest issues that face people who have decided to quit smoking. My sincere hope is that we can take this journey together. This author is a smoker. Hopefully, as I help guide you, I can help guide myself too. I truly want to quit smoking. Really, I do. But there is so much holding me back. Circumstances of life, stress, etc. all hinder me from putting down that cigarette and giving it up for good. My mother was a heavy smoker when she was younger. She quit one Super Bowl Sunday after smoking a whole carton in one day. I cant do that. But why do I continue to smoke when I want to quit so bad? Perhaps its because Ive made it such a huge part of my life. When Im stressed, I smoke. When Ive had a few drinks, I smoke. When I want to relax for just a moment, I smoke. Its not the healthiest way to deal with life, now is it? I know I need to quit because I have to take several breaks when doing normal, everyday chores l...

Bearmouth by Liz hyder book review

Bearmouth, a debut YA novel by Liz Hyder! This book made me remember how dark young adult fiction can get actually, I liked that she didn’t shy away from tackling difficult topics! . It’s an interesting world Hyder’s set up, and a unique style she’s written it in. Bearmouth is a mine, where men and boys are forced to live, work and sleep in exchange for measly wages that barely cover their living costs. I come from an area with a very strong mining heritage, so it was interesting to see that used as a YA premise! . Told from the POV of Newt, the language takes some getting used to. Newt is only just learning their letters, and it’s written out with sort of phonetic spellings - it’s confusing for the first three pages but then your brain does adjust and it’s no harder to read than a regular book - and it’s fun to see Newt’s learning progress throughout. . I thought it stalled a bit around the middle section, but the ending picked up. I also would have liked a bit more exploration...
