Online Brain (garbage) Dump

A blog. Because everyone needs somewhere to store their ideas and opinions.

Hello there (if by chance, there would be anyone who'd be reading this). This an online brain dump page where I'll store all my ideas, thoughts and basically anything that I'd like to do.

As an only child who has issues expressing certain thoughts and opinions, sharing interests and basically finding it difficult to unleash my creativity, a blog would probably be a safe space to do so.

As of now, I don't have any solid idea about what I'd be posting here. Potentially book reviews, gushing about certain movies and characters, writing stories - just things that I enjoy that could probably find a home here.

Currently, I post book reviews on Goodreads. However, I'd prefer a home for my reviews, which would probably be here on my blog! I'll be posting some of my old book reviews here to get a foundation started for this new blog, it will be interesting, I suppose.

Till the next post.

MAY WRAP-UP

The month of May was the beginning of my blog. I've been wanting a space to write down my thoughts as well as to share the books that I've read for a long while now. I'm glad to say that the month of May may have been the most progressive month when it came to reading. A whopping total of 7 books! Here are the books that I've read in May, in no particular order 1. The Colossus Rises by Peter Lerangis I remember getting this book when the author, Peter Lerangis, visited my school. I was only 13 then and it was the first time in a book signing event. The first time I read this book, it was rather disappointing, I could not understand what was happening and I was so lost the whole time. 5 years later, I picked up this book again to give it another chance. This time, I understood it more. You can check out my review of it here . 2. Lost in Babylon by Peter Lerangis I had a copy of this book but I lost it somewhere in my house amongst the oth...

JUNE WRAP-UP

The month of June has been absolutely wonderful! I've not read as many books as I had in May, however, most of the books I've read were worthy of 5 stars. I've dipped my toes into the world of sci-fi, it was a huge step for me since I've always stayed comfortable in the land of Fantasy. I've also read and reviewed a poem collection, which was something different too. Here are the books I've read in June, in no particular order. 1. NIMBUS by A.C. Miller The storyline of NIMBUS has captivated me from the start. Over in the land of Nimbus, 14 year-olds are separated from their families for 11 years to live outside the wall. Every day, kids are fighting for their lives, suffering to find food and shelter. They were kicked out without any skills to defend themselves. Only the strong ones can survive. The writing was consistent, never had there been a moment that was boring. Every character faced their portion of pain and suffering but continued to...
