Review: Such A Fun Age

T. Akhtar
October 9, 2020November 25, 2020 No Comments

Rating: 2.5 Stars Never have I been so clueless about what to write in a book review, as I am right now. After hearing so much about how relevant and timely Such A Fun Age by Kiley Reid is, I was looking froward to read something about racism and discrimination from the perspective of a […]

Sunday Discussion: Are We Giving Up On Our Mother Tongue?

September 27, 2020November 26, 2020 No Comments

My mother tongue is Urdu. As an expat living in the Middle East for the last 10 years, one of the things that I am most ashamed of is that I have not been too diligent in teaching my children my mother tongue. Of course, they speak the language and understand it. Two of them […]

Rating: 2.5 Stars The Runaways by Fatima Bhutto has made me very conflicted. Even though this was the first book by her that I was reading, I have caught glimpses of her work over the years, and have always thought of her as very articulate and clear of thought. So, when I started reading this […]

Review: The Sun Down Motel

September 10, 2020November 26, 2020 No Comments

Rating: 3.5 Stars If The Broken Girls was creepy, The Sun Down Motel promises to be so much more! Simone St. James has outdone herself in chills and secrets. A mystery spanning 35 years, the story is full of intrigue and suspense; and it has a few ghosts thrown in for additional thrill! I had […]

Sunday Pet Peeve: The Pakistani Stereotype

T. Akhtar
September 6, 2020November 28, 2020 No Comments

Last week I read a book by a well known Pakistani author. I was looking forward to reading it, the author being someone I really admire in real life. As I delved deeper into the book, I couldn’t help but be disappointed. On the surface, there wasn’t anything wrong with the story or the characters, […]

Review: The Family Tree

T. Akhtar
August 28, 2020November 29, 2020 No Comments

Rating: 4.5 Stars First and foremost, I want to thank Sairish Hussain for writing The Family Tree. It was so refreshing to read about people that I could relate to; people like me, my friends, and my family. There have been very few books about people of Pakistani origin that portray them as normal, everyday […]

August 14, 2020November 29, 2020 No Comments

Rating: 3 Stars Riley Sager is an author whose books are a must-buy for me. I enjoyed his first two books so much that even the weak links in the books didn’t really matter. To say that I was looking forward to reading Lock Every Door, is an understatement; which is why I was so […]

July 25, 2020November 30, 2020 No Comments

Rating: 3 Stars The Hunting Party by Lucy Foley is definitely a page turner. It has all the elements that make it a great thriller. At least, till you finish. Then you realize that there are some unanswered questions that keep niggling at you. A group of friends has been spending New Year’s Eve together […]

This is an ode to the friendship of all those people who have stuck by me through thick and thin, uplifted me and supported me, and sometimes even fed me to the wolves! Ladies and gentlemen, these people are commonly known as my friends. While I love all of them unconditionally, I have to admit […]
