Wow, I absolutely enjoyed this graphic novel adaptation of the classic A Wrinkle In Time! The illustrations were beautiful and expressive. It was unputdownable!

I felt #ambivalent and conflicted about this book. But overall, it was an #intriguing and #whimsical novel. If you're the reader who likes a lot of descriptions and don't mind the slow pace, you'd enjoy this book a lot more.

Real World | Natsuo Kirino

A #brutal #murder occurred in a crowded residential suburb on the outskirts of #Tokyo, and 4 teenage girls somehow got themselves involved with the #killer. A so-so read. It was suspenseful in the beginning but it got monotonous after that.

This is a collection of 11 #horror/#paranormal #shortstories, which explores issues like family relationships, mother-daughter relationship, grandparents-grandchildren relationship, #marriage, etc. I genuinely enjoyed only two stories in this book. Others were boring and confusing which I don't quite follow.

An #easy and #concise #read about a woman's role in church and family. This book discusses important issues for women in church such as attitude, appearance, testimony, design and contribution.

My first #tommyandtuppence #mystery by #agathachristie. A pretty okay read; it's a short story to introduce new characters. Tuppence figured out that the best way to advertise their new #detectiveagency is by solving a mystery. #bookart #bookphotos #bookphotography #yycreads #calgaryreads #canadareads #read150 #readingisfun #bookworm #readinglife #readingchallenge #kobo #ereader #ereading #passionforreading #obsessedwithreading #calgarylibrary
