"Stories have to be told or they die, and when they die, we can't remember who we are or why we're here." -Sue Monk Kidd ---------------------------------------- I read "The Help" and "The Secret Life Of Bees" in the summer of 2013 and since then they've been my all time favorites. I'd definitely recommend you add these to your summer reading lists if you haven't read them yet 🌞 . ---------------------------------------- I reached *1K followers* a couple of days ago! I can't believe so many of you follow me! I'm truly humbled and thankful💕😊.

As a Thank You I'll be holding a 1 year blogversary and 1K followers giveaway soon 📚so stay tuned! Meanwhile, you can enter the current giveaway running on my blog (link in bio) 👆 I'd like to especially thank the people I've tagged (as much as I'd like to,I couldn't tag all of you🙈). You guys make bookstagramming so much fun for me!I love seeing your posts and reading your reviews💕 Thank you for being you 😘 ---------------------------------------- P.S.: If anyone's wondering, the bookmarks are from @kitaabikeera 🐛📚💕 "I sound contemptuous, but I am not. I am interested--intrigued even--by the way time erases real lives, leaving only vague imprints. Blood and spirit fade away so that only names and dates remain."-Kate Morton -------------------------------- I absolutely adore Kate Morton 💕. "The house at Riverton"was the first book I had the pleasure of reading , then I immediately went and got "The secret keeper"! These days I'm currently reading "The Lake House" and it's equally wonderful ! Definitely recommend her books if you're a fan of historical fiction like me😆 --------------------------------- 📺 I also began watching Gilmore girls, and can I just say that Rory and Dean are goals 🙈 ah the feels💕 I reviewed Faiqa Mansab's debut novel "This House of Clay and Water" on my blog.( link to detailed review in my bio 👆) Definitely recommend this book if you're a fan of good writing and like complex, deeply-flawed characters. This book will be a great addition to your summer reading lists. 🌞 Support your local authors and go grab a copy today! If you have read this book then let me know what you thought in the comments down below. ------------------------------ Synopsis: Set in Lahore, This House of Clay and Water explores the lives of two women. Nida, intelligent and lonely, has married into an affluent political family and is desperately searching for some meaning in her existence; and impulsive, lovely Sasha, from the ordinary middle-class, whose longing for designer labels and upmarket places is so frantic that she willingly consorts with rich men who can provide them. Nida and Sasha meet at the famous Daata Sahib dargah and connect-their need to understand why their worlds feel so alien and empty, bringing them together. On her frequent visits to the dargah, Nida meets the gentle, flute-playing hijra Bhanggi, who sits under a bargadh tree and yearns for acceptance and affection, but is invariably shunned. A friendship-fragile, tentative and tender-develops between the two, both exiles within their own lives; but it flies in the face of all convention and cannot be allowed. "Where you tend a rose my lad, a thistle cannot grow."🌹 -Frances Hodgson Burnett ------------------------------ I really love reading the classics during the summer holidays🌞. One of my favorites is "The secret garden" by Frances Hodgson Burnett. What are some classics that you'd recommend? ----------------------------- Absolutely love this bookmark by @kitaabikeera ! 📚🐛 If you fancy getting one for yourself then you can! They have a vast variety of lovely bookmarks to choose from. I reviewed this wonderful book on my blog (link in bio 👆) . It talked about SM (that's two books about SM that I've read this year! ) and bullying -among other things. My favorite character would have to be Seb. He was such sweetheart😆 and all his poo jokes were hilarious🙈😂 --------------------------------------------------------- Synopsis: ...I am Miss Nobody. Rosalind hates her new secondary school. She's the weird girl who doesn't talk. The Mute-ant. And it's easy to pick on someone who can't fight back. So Rosalind starts a blog - Miss Nobody; a place to speak up, a place where she has a voice. But there's a problem... Is Miss Nobody becoming a bully herself? "Just pretend you're a superhero like Batgirl and the library lady is The Target. Only instead of punching her brains out, you have to speak to her. And once you've done it you've saved the entire school from her evil plan." -Tamsin Winter ----------------------------------- I recently read "Being Miss Nobody" by Tamsin Winter. It brings our attention towards Selective Mutism (SM) - which was convenient; it being "mental health awareness month"and all. It was so refreshing and heartwarming. Will be reviewing it soon on my blog. Thank you @usborneya for sending me a copy 💕
