From Words To Views: The Lincoln Lawyer [Season 3]

When I first saw the trailers, I knew that it would be worth the wait. Adapted from the fifth book in the Mickey Haller series called The Gods of Guilt, this emotionally charged season absolutely gives justice to Michael Connelly’s original novel. Like the last season, the familiar story of ace criminal lawyer Mickey Haller […]

Love, Mom | Iliana Xander

This was such a sick, twisted, and wild chase story. Although it started on a slow note and took a minute to build momentum, it picked up speed pretty soon. This compact novel begins with its protagonist, Mackenzie Casper, while she attends her mother’s funeral and notices the strange behavior of her father, Ben Casper. […]

From Words To Views | Ripley

The black and white color palette is the first clever indication of presenting things in stark contrasts,  even though there is a vast difference in what has been presented and what your eyes are seeing. This deceitfulness is the real crux of this popular Netflix series, so it remains faithful to the main theme of […]

The Parisian | Isabella Hammad

What happens when you combine a romantic fiction with a political non-fiction? The answer is The Parisian by Isabella Hammad. It’s a vivid combination of romantic saga, historical fiction, domestic thriller, and political non-fiction. At times it works, but other times it doesn’t; thus, the author’s seminal work fails to present a cohesive picture. At […]

The Water Lies | Amy Meyerson

This is my second book in as many months that presents same narrative from two narrators’ perspectives. As they try to piece together the same puzzle in their own unique ways, somewhere in the story both narratives collide so that a wholesome coherent truth can emerge. The Water Lies is no exception to this and […]
