Drawing in the Sands by Zoe Klein
I finally finished the book Drawing in the Sands. Here is a little overview of the story. "Brilliant archaeologist, Page Brookstone, is convinced bones speak, yet none of the ancient remains she has unearthed during her twelve years of toiling at Israel's storied battle grounds of Megiddo has delivered the life-altering message she so craves. Which is why Ibrahim and Naima (in the summary, it says Aisha, but in the book, it's Naima) Barakat, a young Arab couple who implore Page to excavate the grounds beneath their house in Anatot, instantly intrigues her. The Barakats claim the ghosts of two lovers haunt their home, overwhelming everyone who enters with love and desire. Ignoring the scorn of her peers, Page investigates the site, where she is seduced by the undeniable force. Once Ibrahim presents Page with hard evidence of a cistern beneath his living room floor, she has no choice but to uncover the secret of the spirits. It is not long before Page makes a miraculous discovery - the bones of the deeply troubled Prophet Jeremiah locked in with an eternal brace with a mysterious woman named Anatiya. Buried with the entwined skeletons is a collection of Anatiya's scrolls, whose magical words challenge centuries-old interpretations of the prophet's story and create a worldwide fervor that threatens to silence the truth about the two lovers forever. Caught in a forbidden romance of her own, and under constant siege from religious zealots and ruthless critics, Page risks her life and reputation to deliver Anatiya's passionate message to the world." - From the summary in the book

The Bookclub That Never Agreed
M Mehran Most bookclubs bond over shared taste. Ours bonded over the exact opposite. We never agreed on anything—not the genre, not the author, not even the definition of a “good book.” And strangely enough, that was the secret that kept us together.

The Secret Bookclub in the Park
M Mehran Most people walked past us without noticing. To them, we were just a cluster of strangers on picnic blankets, sipping tea from mismatched thermoses. But for those who stopped and listened, they’d realize something unusual: we weren’t talking about the weather or politics. We were unraveling worlds, chapter by chapter, beneath the old oak tree in the park.

Pretty Boys Are Poisonous: Poems. Content Warning.
“Maybe the original sin was a man taking a woman for granted.” ― Megan Fox, Pretty Boys Are Poisonous: Poems Let me start this off by saying, I have NEVER read a book of poetry that had me hooked like this. Hell, I have never even done a review of poetry before. But Megan Fox has me in such a chokehold and I felt like writing about it. Maybe it's because I loved mgk but wow, I see him in a different light now. I am so addicted to Megan's writing it's not even funny.

I read When You Wish Upon A Star by Elizabeth Lim
When Magic Comes with a Price: A Review of "When You Wish Upon A Star" by Elizabeth Lim Elizabeth Lim's "When You Wish Upon A Star" (2023) stands as a compelling addition to Disney's "A Twisted Tale" series, offering readers a fresh and darker perspective on the beloved Pinocchio story. Rather than simply retelling the classic tale, Lim asks a provocative question: "What if the Blue Fairy wasn't supposed to help Pinocchio?"
