Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik
Took me a while to finish this book – a month to be exact. The book starts super slow, but catches up after a point. I was so invested in Miryem, Wanda and Irina that after a point I realised that I was actually relishing this book. I never wanted it to end! Synopsis :…

Highfire – By Eoin Colfer
I waited for this book with such excitement and bought the e book because I had literally no patience to wait for even a day for this to get delivered. A dragon alive in Louisiana who loves Vodka Martinis and Netflix? HELL YEAH!
Malice – By Pintip Dunn
Amidst the ongoing pandemic, this book can trigger a lot of anxiety for those who may be sensitive at this stage.
The book is not as scary as one would expect. It doesn’t just speak of a global pandemic with no cure, but also how a broken human, and flawed love is instrumental in wiping humanity itself out.
