Hello Everyone,  Welcome to another very interesting edition of SheSaysSheSays...our little opinionated series where we input on all things bookish! Last segment, reviewers, Emma and Ashvini, both dished their two cents on the subject of ratings and their validity in the book-review-o-sphere! (We were incredibly delighted at your positive response and feedback, by the way, thank you for it all.) So this week were back at it again with some...bookmarks! Whoop-whoop! Today we're taking a slightly more comical approach on the series, by discussing the use of bookmarks and our personal responses and preferences with regards to them So, let's get on into it! Photo Source Link Ashvin i: Right off the bat, I’ve ought to admit; I don’t use bookmarks…or any sort of page marker, really with physical reads. Aside from being entranced by the allure of their cute paper patterns at bookstores, none of my page markers have ever been put to good use. Few have been ta...

Hello Everyone, As we bask in the last month of summer and all it’s glory, as the season comes to a close actually; we’re still holding onto some really amazing and “summery” novels in our TBR. So, as, booklovers it is our faithful duty to...READ THEM ASAP! Like, now. Before summer ends (or attempt to).

A total of five "summery" books shall be read. An updated post with mini reviews on each of the books shall come soon...wink, wink!                        Ashvini’s Pick: Until Friday Night - Abby Glines.

Hey! It’s been soooooo long! Also, it’s SUMMER!!!!! YAY, schools out! Today we bring to you a Canadian (#readthenorth) Red Maple Award Nominee of 2017 by a super cool author we've actually been bestowed the pleasure of meeting at the Forest of Reading ceremony earlier this year. Ms. Tromly was incredibly kind and earnest and we had an amazing time chatting with her. So we're quite excited to discuss her book! Photo Source Link Ashvini: While you could discuss the way the development of the main character's behaviour (if any) wore thin as Zoe repeatedly found herself in scenarios like (very mini spoiler alert!), “we found a can of snow paint in your daughter’s possession,” or “we’ll pretend to buy a bunch of drugs,” and “who says we have to go to class.” I like to imagine that despite all the questionable behaviour, Zoe’s character still took a road trip; a journey in finding herself; and each chapter, marked her progress along the way. At the start of the ...
