13 Reasons Why- my review.

I completed reading 13 reasons why today. To be honest, I don't know why I like it. It's not like the other teen novels or young adult fantasy I read. This is entirely different.

High school student Hannah Baker commits suicide and records 13 reasons in audio tapes. The tapes had to be passed around the 13 people whom she had talked about in the tapes, and how they've been connected to her suicide. After hearing all the 13, the person should pass it on to the next one in the list. If he/she doesn't, then a second set would be released to the public by anonymous.

The story starts when Clay Jensen, the main character, gets the set and starts listening to it. Secrets unravel, even the darkest ones, and Clay feels that he could've stopped Hannah from committing suicide if he had got his chance right. After listening to each tape, Clay's perspective on every single people and normality changes.

What is the impact of this book on me? Well, after reading this, I think things are changing from the way I've seen them previously. I've sometimes thought that suicides are reason less, but now I know why that happens. And I've also learnt the pain of being teased and loneliness. I know that from now on, I would help anyone I know who thinks that they are lonely. or they need company.

The book is a must read for all kids who are entering high school. We should know about the impact of wrong decisions we make if we feel lonely.

Saturdays with BK Uncle

Edit 1 : This is something I wrote a long time ago. repurposing for entertainment purposes. any harm thus caused isn't intentional; it happens to be a byproduct. Nobody knows how old BK Uncle is. Some say he's 60; some say he's awaiting his 80th birthday next month. He's been around for a long time. "Long time" might not seem so long, but for this young flat, it feels like an eternity. Old BK seemed nice; he'd converse with anyone he encountered. The four W's never mattered until they came out of him. People got used to his habits, like any obedient student would in an assembly. Well, most people. My interactions with BK Uncle have been quite amusing on my end and irritating on his. Incidentally, most of my interactions with BK Uncle happen on Saturdays. Probably because that's when I'm home, and I take a stroll in the lobby. Not so long ago, I'd play with my friends in the same lobby—it didn't matter what day of the week it was. Times...

Afterthoughts - YellowFace

 It took me a while to finish this book. Longer than I'd like to admit. Partly because engineering can get exhausting; sometimes all you want to do is sit still and stare into the void. And also because this book allows you to take breaks. Yellowface - by Rebecca F. Kuang Unlike many books that demand emotional stamina, this one pauses. Not every book offers to halt its flavour for your comfort. There are books that get you emotionally invested, and books that slowly get you in the zone. We've all binge-read books, if not series, simply because it lured you into an all-consuming world. Yellowface isn't a lot of things, and it certainly is not bait. It probably isn't something you would find everyone mentioning, and it doesn't leave you with characters to love. But it reminds you, in all gory detail, about the parts of you that'd have inevitably surfaced at times. Every century has had its patron cause. The 19th and early 20th centuries were about women's suf...
