Hey everyone! Welcome or welcome back to my blog. Today I’m going to do a mini-review of all the books I’ve read this month. There were a total of five books that I finally took out of my TBR this month and I’m excited to be talking about them on here. So without any further ado, let’s get started…

The Little Prince // ⭐4/5
I decided to read this book after Pavithra @ Small Talks posted a beautifully illustrated review of it on her Insta page. Reading this book just felt different, it made me feel different kinds of emotions – happiness, sadness, amusement, warmth, and above all, it felt like a having a conversation with my inner child.
Before The Coffee Gets Cold // ⭐5/5
I can say that this one will be one of my top five reads of this year. There are stories that you don’t forget easily, Before The Coffee Gets Cold is a collection of stories that you don’t want to forget. Why? Because it will remind you of things that are most precious to you, things that must not be taken for granted. A gentle but at the same time, a heartbreaking reminder that time waits for no one, so drink the coffee before it gets cold.


Happy Place // ⭐2/5
I had big expectations from Happy Place, but all I felt after finishing this book was disappointment. I wasn’t a fan of the writing style from the beginning, but there were a few parts that I enjoyed reading, parts that made me feel like the story is going to take a better turn soon, but as it turned out, I guess this just wasn’t for me.
Better Than The Movies // ⭐4.2/5
This one had been on my TBR for over a year and I’m glad that I finally gave it a read. You know I love it when the characters are so well-written that you get a hang of their personality and it starts to feel like you know them personally, that’s what I enjoyed the most about this book. The characters were so good… and Wes Bennett now stands besides Ravi from AGGGTM in my favorite fictional boys’ club.


The Silent Patient // ⭐4.3/5
Oh I love myself a good mystery-thriller. Thanks to Niv @Niv’s Nook for recommending this book to me. Though I admit, I’d expected a tiny bit more… I don’t know what exactly but since the book kept me hooked from the first page with a mindblowing-ly shocking plot twist and all the puzzle pieces fitting together perfectly at the end, I must say it was an excellent read.
With that, I put two books from my End-of-Year TBR to my Finished-Reading section. October is already coming to an end and I’m not sure if I’m going to complete my 25 books goal by the end of this year but let’s see. I’m not reading anything currently since Diwali preparations have been keeping me too busy but five books a month is a big deal for me, so that’s a win-win.
I hope you enjoyed reading this post. See you next time!
