Books I Have Been Reading Recently (Part 9)

Twisted Hate by Ana Huang

So this is the third book in the Twisted series by Ana Huang and I have read the first two books which were: Twisted Love and Twisted Games and I really liked them, so started reading Twisted Hate too but I am not liking this one as much as I liked the first two books. I especially liked Twisted Games a lot but Twisted Hate is just not doing it for me. I am not able to relate much with the characters and I feel like they are not as interesting as the author intended them to be. I am almost going to finish the book anyway, only 2 hours and some minutes of it are left as I am reading this book on Audible. I might give this book 3/5 stars mostly but might give it 4/5 stars if I somehow like the ending.

The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides

This book is so hyped on booktok, bookstagram and booktube and so I thought I'd give it a try and so I purchased it. But I am not liking it so far, it's dull and kinda boring. The premise is interesting but the writing is not. I have read about 100 pages so far and I don't know anything more about the main character than when I started reading the book. The pacing is very slow. One good thing about the book is that the chapters are short which makes it easy to read. I actually had very high expectations for this book since it is of the mystery genre which is one of my most favorite genres. I might give the book a 3/5 stars but if the pacing improves, I'll give it a 4/5 stars.

Books I Have Been Reading Recently (Part 10)

That Night by Nidhi Upadhyay I'm reading this book in a paperback format and have completed around 50 pages. The book is about four friends who played a game of Ouija while at college and a girl of their hostel died. Twenty years later someone is trying to mess with them even though they live in different parts of the world. Intriguing premise. And interesting writing style so far. I think I might like this book, let's see. The book is around 300 pages long. The Spanish Love Deception by Elena Armas This book is about Lina and Aaron Blackford - two colleagues who initially seemingly hate each other but somehow end up becoming each other's fake dates to some major events. I've read like 150 pages of this book so far and am finding it repetitive and boring as of now. Let's see how it goes. I might rate the book a 2/5 stars if the writing does not improve as the book progresses. Or if it improves, I might rate it 3/5 stars or 4/5 stars, let's see. Until now, the pa...

Restaurants That I Ate At Recently (Part 5)

That Waffle Place I have ordered from here before through online delivery platforms but recently I went and ate at their shop for the first time. They have quite a few branches I think. We went to the one in Alwarpet. We ordered their Frozen Hot Chocolate and Belgian Biscoff Waffle. I did not taste the frozen hot chocolate but the biscoff waffle was good although it would have been better if they added biscoff biscuit crumbles along with the biscoff spread. The place also had some games like jenga which kept us entertained. Overall, I would rate the place a 4/5 stars. Maison Indulgence We went to this place recently due to the Instagram hype that it has. But unfortunately, for us, it did not live up to the hype. We felt that all the items were overpriced. We ordered the Basque cheesecake and did not like it all. Ambience was okay-ish, too noisy. I would rate this place 1/5 stars. This place is also situated in Alwarpet. Mexe Another place which is in Alwarpet - Mexe. We ordered their c...

Five Most Patriotic Movies on Amazon Prime Video India Right Now

Raazi This movie was a solid 4.5/5 stars in my opinion. What I liked the most about this movie is that it portrays a young girl who spies for her country against all odds. The movie is based on a true story and it shed light on the unsung heroes of Indian history. The main character Sehmat left college, married and lived in Pakistan, so that she could gain intel about the upcoming war. The intel gathered by her and other spies helped India to get prepared for the Indo-Pakistan war of 1971 and the Ghazi attack. The movie is based on a book called "Calling Sehmat." Alia Bhatt plays the role of the lead actress and she was able to represent what the real Sehmat would have felt like - scared, brave, patriotic, loving, dangerous, caring, human, selfless and a thousand more indescribable emotions. Other important characters in the movie were Sehmat's husband, her parents, her father-in-law. her brother-in-law, her brother-in-law's wife, a servant who worked in Sehmat's ...
