Sunday Blues: Dream House Part Deux

T. Akhtar
October 13, 2019October 12, 2020 No Comments

When I wrote the blog post about the house of my dreams I had no idea that I was so close to achieving my dream. We were in the process of moving house around the time that I wrote the post, and all I could think of was how much stuff I needed to get […]

Sunday Blues: Dream House

T. Akhtar
September 22, 2019October 13, 2020 No Comments

Growing up, my dream house always had the largest library imaginable. I didn’t know the number of rooms it will have, how big it will, or even if it will have a swimming pool or not. The most important thing was to have floor to ceiling shelves full of books, oh, and a ladder with […]

Sunday Venting: Are The Kids Alright?

T. Akhtar
September 8, 2019October 13, 2020 No Comments

When my children were little, everyone kept telling me how I was lucky to have had them close together. That way, they said, they will grow up together and you will be free to enjoy your own life. As my children grow older, I have started having serious doubts about this statement. They will probably […]

Sunday Issues: Of Reading Slumps And Manic Reading

T. Akhtar
December 2, 2018October 13, 2020 No Comments

2018 has been a year full of ups and downs for me personally. In some of the darkest times of my life, it was reading that brought me peace and sanity. At the same time, there were occasions when reading became the most difficult thing for me to do for days and weeks. My erratic […]

Sunday Relationship: My Kindle and I. It’s Complicated.

T. Akhtar
September 30, 2018October 13, 2020 No Comments

I have a habit of complaining about how I don’t have enough space in the house for my books, and how my shelves are always disorganised. It’s more showing off than an actual concern, I think. However, people who don’t know me think it is a very serious problem, one that I want a solution […]

Sunday Talks: …But What About The Classics?

T. Akhtar
August 5, 2018October 15, 2020 No Comments

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a man in possession of the ability to read, must be made to read The Classics (with due apology to Jane Austen. Pride And Prejudice remains a favourite of mine). Ever since I can remember, people have been telling me to read classics and learn to appreciate them. […]

Review: The Ocean At The End Of The Lane

T. Akhtar
July 22, 2018October 15, 2020 No Comments

Rating: 4 Stars In The Ocean At The End Of The Lane, Neil Gaiman shows us the world as seen by a 7-year-old boy. The world that children live in is not the same as our adult world. Their realities are different from our realities, and it is a fact that as they grow older, […]

Sunday Problem: Recommending Books

T. Akhtar
June 3, 2018October 15, 2020 No Comments

Disclaimer: If you’re easily offended, or take life too seriously, please don’t read this. Really. Stop reading. When you read a lot of books, people who know you always ask for recommendations about what to read. Since you have some idea about your friends and family, it is natural to tell them about books that […]

Review: Things She Could Never Have

T. Akhtar
May 29, 2018October 15, 2020 No Comments

Rating: 4.5 Stars I have never been very enthusiastic about short stories in English. While I love reading Urdu short stories, somehow English short stories have never held any fascination for me. Furthermore, contemporary Pakistani writers have, with the exception of one or two, always left me disappointed. It was these two factors that made […]

Review: The Woman In The Window

T. Akhtar
May 23, 2018October 15, 2020 No Comments

Rating: 3 Stars The Woman in The Window by A.J. Finn was my most anticipated read this year. I had been trying to get my hands on it for months, but something always went wrong and I ended up not buying it. So, when I did manage to get it finally, I couldn’t wait to […]
