    One Night on the Moon

    One Night on the Moon

    ‘Finally, here I am! How I wish my best friend would have been with me, too. Anyway, let’s take a Moon landing selfie, but the lighting is so dim. Never mind, I will update the brightness later. I know the perfect filter to fix it.’ Click! Click! Click! I captured some pictures of the landing […]

    From Monday to Friday, this is the most hated thing,7’o clock in the morning, my alarm never fails to ring. The toughest part of the day, I don’t want to, yet push myself.I sigh, glancing at the to be read books on my lovely bookshelf. The only silver lining, T.G.I.F., can stay up late, party […]

    Friendship Day – 2020

    Friendship Day – 2020

    It’s been long, we saw each other face to face,Remember that party, when we rocked on the bass. After-parties were a crème de la crème with you,In the name of heart to heart, my brain you chew. We would spend hours chattering like gossip-mongers,Relished the 2 min noodles, calming pangs of late-night hunger. And that […]

    Social Distancing – A Virtual Party

    Social Distancing – A Virtual Party

    Its been a month in this beautiful green country and all we have seen are 2 restaurants and 4 supermarkets. Thanks to “You-Know-What”. It is spreading like fire and no hidden story but I really do not wish to speak about the novel Corona virus. There is plenty of information (real and fake) available on […]

    The Honeymoon Phase of Relocation

    It’s been a week in this green continent and to be honest, I feel fresher then ever. We are in Entebbe, a town in Central Uganda situated on Lake Victoria peninsula. While Uganda is also known as Pearl of Africa, I feel Entebbe can be named as Gem of Uganda. The first thing that hits […]

    Sad Cypress by Agatha Christie

    Sad Cypress by Agatha Christie

    This is my first Poirot book and I am a bit disappointed considering all the good words I have heard about the series. The book is in 3 three parts, the first part is where the murder happens, the second is the investigation where Poirot enters, third is all court drama. The first part felt […]

    Rumours Of Spring by Farah Bashir

    Rumours Of Spring by Farah Bashir

    This is one of the most disturbing reads I have had in the recent past. Having grown up in a free environment with friends and family, celebrating festivals, we were able to go to school every day, meet people, live and laugh. But when I read this book from a Kashmiri teenage girl’s perspective, I […]

    Mindful Musings & Peaceful Ponderings by Manali Desai

    Mindful Musings & Peaceful Ponderings by Manali Desai

    There are 50 freestyle poems, each having a distinct flavour. It has something to offer to everyone. The variation of emotions flowing in the poems is relatable. The best part of this book is the writing style. It doesn’t go with lines ending with rhyming words, yet it sounds musical. The illustrations at the start […]

    It’s Time!

    It’s Time!

    My babysitter has been complaining for the last few weeks. “The auto-lock on the door has become faulty. Please fix it. It’s a risk for your child.” The door opens on its own, she said. I kept asking her to check and recheck if she had tightly shut the door. The other day, she said […]

    Murder At Daisy Apartments by Shabnam Minwalla

    After a long time, I picked up a YA novel to read. Honestly, I was a bit disappointed and bored at the start. It was slow and seemed a lot like a lockdown saga. The murder happens after 45% of the book is done.The only part I liked in the initial half was the buildup […]
