Sexy in Stilettos - Nana Malone

The stakes are as high as her stilettos.

I read this author yesterday for the first time and I am already in love with her. She is quirky, witty and intelligent. One of the few authors who has some imagination left. Her stories are not old-school, boring types. They match our current outlook and mindset.
This is a story of Jaya and Alec. They have a few disagreements, keep a few secrets, fight a little, normal stuff. What is different is the heroine. She is a modern woman, not a damsel -in - distress. She is in distress, but she doesn't need anyone to save her. She has a plan and she is going to make it big. She works hard, is career oriented and even when her own family kicks her out, she fights to get back on her feet. She doubts herself and is nervous but that is normal. I couldn't help falling in love with her. She is an inspiration. She is a strong woman and they too are allowed days of self wallowing with a tub of cookies&cream.

The thing with relationships is not that one person keeps saving the other. It is about equality. They should grow together  and give strength to each other to become better. A girl does not need saving. She can make it on her own. She is sufficient.

I liked this book and I am going to give it a 7/10. It is a must read. It's interracial and that is how it is in today's world. We don't discriminate. And we shouldn't. I liked/loved it. Finished it in one go, couldn't stop. Can't wait to read other books by Nana. Plus point is there is no bitchy ex around. Phew!

So long guys..

Pain

What nobody told us  it never gets better it only gets older sometimes duller.  It stays with you like that ache that you are used to one that doesn't hurt anymore just exists. One fine day you woke up  not the same, an ache where there was none now a part of you follows you where you go grows as you grow older.

Book Review: Leah On The Offbeat

You know it is a good book when it ends up schooling you. I am too old to read high school drama anymore but seeing people rave about Simon vs The Homosapiens Agenda and Leah On The Offbeat, I finally gave LOTO a try. And boy am I glad. Initially sceptical, because the writing style is aimed at teenagers, the first few chapters were a bit difficult to get through. I found the language exceedingly plain, it was overall too kiddish.  It was when the characters developed in the next few chapters, that I was hooked. I have yet to read such great character development in a high school book.  Let's start off with Leah. She is your average protagonist -  angry at the world, a broken family, overthinking things, overweight, smart, the only difference, she isn't lonely. She has a lot of friends. Oh and the fact that she is bi, secretly. As we delve further into the book, her layers peel off. She is in love with a girl who is dating her best friend who happens to...

Reader

As the title says. I am a reader. I average  on mostly 1 book a day, sometimes even more. It's a hobby or you  can even call it an obsession. I need to read, I have to. When I have nothing else to do, guess what I do? Obviously read. It is like I crave stories, I crave an escape. I want to know, I want to feel, be something I never will. In reading I thrive. In books I live. These words are like food for my soul. And most importantly i read everything. Anything i can get my hands on. I love fiction- Jeffrey Archer being my favourite, John Grisham not too far behind and Suzanne Collins is always there. But recently I have been reading a lot of Romance and seems like I have fallen in love. With  the genre, not literally. So that being said, I feel it's  only fitting that I atleast review the books I have read and share my views with others. Happy reading everyone. Xoxo
