Roundup | October 2025

Intro I’m so bad at keeping promises to myself, aren’t I? In Roundup | July 2025, I promised to revive the tradition of monthly roundsup and then I disappeared for two months. Honestly, not in a good headspace these days, suffering from both physical health issues and a ton of mental stress. This also reflects…

Roundup | September 2025

September 2025 Reading Roundup So, haven’t read a ton this month. Work is hectic and stressful these days and…

Roundup | July 2025

Intro We’re back to doing roundups! It’s been a while (hello, 2020 flashbacks), but honestly, I missed chatting about what I read each month. So here we are, resurrecting the tradition—this time with more chaos, more candour, and way better book picks (I think?). Let’s dive into what July 2025 looked like on my reading…

Wednesday Whimsies | Happy 25th, Google!

As the sun rises (or sets), and the world wakes up (or goes to bed), there’s one constant in my daily routine: Google. Yes, you heard that right, Google, the trusty companion that’s been there through thick and thin. Whether it’s the middle of the night, or smack at noon, I am often reaching out…

Tuesday Morning | Treaty Tuesdays #1

I had forgotten how fun cafeteria could be. Coming back to work after two years has very many downsides. My biggest grouse is the commute (duh!), and not being able to work lying down, wearing a loose tunic with mismatched palazzo and my hair tied into a high bun. But it does have its benefits,…

Monday Morning | Mourning Mondays #1

  I was travelling from my hometown to Pune yesterday. Yep, that’s why I couldn’t review Sang-e-Maah’s latest episode. It has been 9 hours since I arrived home, and I still haven’t reviewed it, but that’s a different story. Travelling back is always painful and emotional, and in that order. Caught by the Reading Bug…

Book Promotion | MAYBE, SOMEDAY | Happily Ever Afters #8

Introduction: Maybe Someday, was just an idea that popped in my head on a fine Saturday afternoon. Weekends are generally finish-your-weekly-chores routine; aided by a constant stream of thoughts reminiscing past. I recalled my visit to Qamar Ali Durvesh shrine with my family. One thought led to other and a week later, I was ready…
