Najmah

I am a mother of two beautiful girls, and one of my joys is reading books. I have never joined a book group before, so I wasn’t sure what it would be like or how I could contribute. I was hesitant to join when Nadia first shared the link with me, but I finally decide to push myself and join.

A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder

by Holly Jackson | Buy this book

This is a great thriller / mystery series, but what sets it apart from other books in this genre is the characters. Would highly recommend.

The Brothers Karamazov

Strange the Dreamer

by Laini Taylor | Buy this book

I love this fantasy book as it uses medieval Spain and the Middle East to form an interesting and different magical world. Taylor also uses this space to discuss the aftermath of violent revolution on all of its survivors.

Pride and Prejudice

by Jane Austen | Buy this book

I love Lizzie as a character, I feel like she is relatable, even with the couple hundred time gap since publication. I love her lack of dependancy on a man and I feel like that is both bold and brave for that time. I feel like you could also take parts of the story from Austen's life in itself which is admirable.

Emilia

I love books and I love seeing where a story can take you. My genre is novels with interesting and well structured characters that you discover bit by bit. I am bilingual and I am intrigued by the use of words and how they can be used to convey an image or a feeling.
