Short stories for every reader
Hello Bookworms, when I was younger, my most effective way out of a reading slump would be diving into a short and entertaining comic. Something that, seemingly, we can all agree, is easy to read.

Hello Bookworms, I am certainly no poetry expert; I would say I am an expert at nothing at all, even. But I do think I can say with certainty what this collection of poems lacked. And it was honesty. I was looking forward to this read for a variety of reasons, some being out of Continue reading

Hello Bookworms, only a few books touch me. But the few and far between that are why I continue to be such a devoted reader. Even from its cover, Klara and the Sun had always given me the inkling that something extraordinary awaited me inside. The cover, with its serene depiction, seemed to promise a Continue reading

Hello bookworms, I am pleased to announce that it’s March—and nearing the end of March. Last August, I went on a semester abroad to Copenhagen, returning to my home university this January. As soon as I stepped foot there, I knew I had made the right decision. If I’m being brutally candid, I am not Continue reading

Hello Bookworms, the year has ended. Assuming you didn’t already know. Perhaps you’ve been in some sleeping beauty nap situation; if so, I am here to inform you that it is officially 2024. I had talked in a previous post about how much reading meant to me, where I touched on the particular benefits (I Continue reading
