  AGGGTM HOLLY JACKSON "A  Good Girl's Guide To Murder" by Holly Jackson has so far been one of the best crime-investigation novels that I laid my hands on, especially since it's about a female student detective who just loves to go over with a fine tooth comb. And oh boy! I do really admire Pip and I became an ardent devotee of hers, to be frank.      The series is a trilogy , the first one being "A Good Girl's Guide To Murder" itself. It follows around how Pip(Pippa Fitz-Amobi) overturns every stone to get to the roots of the Andie Bell murder case, who was "allegedly" murdered by her boyfriend ,Sal Sing. Pip is accompanied by Sal's brother , Ravi, throughout the investigation, who has his own share of nicknames for her including the most famous 'sarge' .Pip believes with all her heart that Sal is innocent. And the truth? No spoilers! Find it out yourself folks! And don't get me started on the chemistry between Pip and Ravi....

  TAPE STEVEN CAMDEN      T ape by Steve Camden thinking is a quick read, It’s one of those books that’s short in pages and long in feelings. Like, you finish it fast, but your brain just kind of sits there afterward trying to process everything.      The story follows Ryan, who’s dealing with loss, guilt, and a lot of heavy thoughts that he doesn’t really know how to handle. Then there’s Ameliah, his future daughter. Their very sci-fi ,time defying  friendship is the heart of the book. Nothing about it is overly polished or fake.      The writing style is what really stands out. It’s written in texting and verse style which might , but it actually makes everything hit harder. The sentences are short, sometimes fragmented, but those lines just mirrors Ryan’s state of mind. It feels like you’re inside his head, which is slightly uncomfortable.      The themes are pretty intense. It talks about grief, mental health...

Aalahayude Penmakkal  Sarah Joseph     Just for a change , today I will be reviewing a Malayalam novel. "Aalahayude Penmakkal" is a Malayalam novel written by Sarah Joseph. It's the first in the trilogy which includes "Mattathi" and   "Othappu" , all revolving around fierce women protagonists in out of the ordinary backgrounds.     The book is narrated from the perspective of Annie, an eight-year-old filled with curiosity , living in 'Kokkanchira' , an imaginary undesirable locality on the outskirts of Thrissur. 'Kokkanchira" is described as a previous dumping ground for carcasses and dead bodies and an abode for the marginalised societies, dalits and scavengers, displaced from the city. However we see how the services of these 'undesirables' are 'desirable' for the city dwellers , a situation where the development of some of few constricts the development of some others. We see conflicts between various social sects, p...
