Book Review
Review of books I have read
-
A dark psychological thriller of copycat serial killers and a grieving widow auditing the secret life her husband left behind. My review of Book 1 in Natalie Michaels’ Copycat Killer series.
-
Some thrillers begin with a scream. What I Did begins with something far more unsettling – a woman standing in an airport, luggage in hand, trying very hard to look like she isn’t running away.
-
Some books find you exactly when you need them. Virginia Axline’s Dibs in Search of Self is the quiet, luminous account of a withdrawn little boy who slowly unfolds through play therapy it reached somewhere deep.
-
Three monsoon moods, three books, three cups of chai. A reading pairing post for Mumbai’s grey, rainy afternoons.
-
Gabrielle Zevin’s Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is a love story that refuses to call itself one – a novel about games, grief, creativity, and the people we can’t live without.
-
There is a particular kind of friendship that only the 70s and 80s seem to have produced. The kind built entirely on proximity, on shared afternoons with no agenda, before phones made distance feel optional. The Song of Our Bond by Pinki Bakshi is a tribute to exactly that kind of friendship
-
Reading Heathcliff’s revenge as a two-generation leveraged buyout, not a love story.
-
Halfway through 2026 and eighteen books deep — a mid-year reading check-in from a rainy Mumbai, spanning Japanese comfort fiction, classic mysteries, Indian voices, and one banker’s risk-reader lens.
