March Rereading Madness: Day 30

March 30, 2021

I think I say this about almost every month, but March went by really fast! This is the second last day of the rereading challenge, but given that I’m only halfway through Genji, I’ll probably still continue to reread it in April and beyond. I’ve only finished one more chapter of Genji and we’re back… Read More March Rereading Madness: Day 30

SEA Reading Challenge: Annabelle Thong by Imran Hashim

March 30, 2021
Annabelle Thong by Imran Hashim

Since our previous book club pick was very dark, we decided to go the opposite way for next book and opted for Annabelle Thong, a Singlit Chic-lit. Personally, I was very excited about this book because I prefer genre fiction to literary fiction, and I want to read more Singlit (and books from SEA authors)… Read More SEA Reading Challenge: Annabelle Thong by Imran Hashim

March Rereading Madness: Day 29

March 29, 2021

We’re almost at the end of my self-declared month of rereading! And there are still so many books that I want to read. But, I went to the library last week and got four books, so I’ve gotta start on the new books soon. Anyway, here’s what I’ve read over the last few days: I… Read More March Rereading Madness: Day 29

March Rereading Madness: Day 26

March 26, 2021

Hi friends! It’s the end of the week! I’ve got two weekends this coming weekend, so the next time you’ll hear from me will be Sunday night (or Monday night, depending on how intense translating is!). So between last night and today, I have: Finished The Meaning of Night: The fourth section more or less… Read More March Rereading Madness: Day 26

March Rereading Madness: Day 25

March 25, 2021

Hi friends! I hope you’ve gotten over your midweek slump. Here’s what I’ve been reading: The Meaning of Night: I’ve finished another three parts and I think I’ll be reading the sequel right after this. It’s been interesting how my opinion of Edward has changed from part 1. Part 1 started with him making a… Read More March Rereading Madness: Day 25

Book Review: The True History of Tea by Victor H Mair and Erling Hoh

March 25, 2021
The True History of Tea by Victor H Mair and Erling Hoh

I have reached a new level in my tea journey – people are asking me about tea books! Honestly, I’m really happy about this development because I love tea and reading so this is both my interests combined. And when my friend asked me if I had read The True History of Tea and what… Read More Book Review: The True History of Tea by Victor H Mair and Erling Hoh

Book Review: The Recovery of Rose Gold by Stephanie Wrobel

March 24, 2021
The Recovery of Rose Gold by Stephanie Wrobel

The annoying thing about one book having two different titles is that you’ll end up misunderstanding how many library copies there are. I searched for this book under “Darling Rose Gold” and thought that there weren’t many copies available, but then I searched by author name and found it in the library I was visiting!… Read More Book Review: The Recovery of Rose Gold by Stephanie Wrobel

March Rereading Madness: Day 23

March 23, 2021

Hi friends! Sad news – I am officially supposed to be drinking less tea. I don’t know how it’s going to look like (I’m apparently allowed to have up to have 1 cup of coffee’s worth of a tea a day) but I’m hoping I can get back to my regular caffeine consumption levels soon.… Read More March Rereading Madness: Day 23

Tea Review: Benihomare Aged Wakoucha by The Tea Crane

March 23, 2021
Benihomare Aged Wakoucha by The Tea Crane

This is the third and final tea in the ‘Aged Wakoucha’ trio that I got from The Tea Crane! It’s been a very enjoyable first box, and although these teas seem really different (drinking them individually), I’m going to see if I have time this weekend to do a comparison of the three and see… Read More Tea Review: Benihomare Aged Wakoucha by The Tea Crane

March Rereading Madness: Day 22

March 22, 2021

Hi friends! The weekend is over and I’m somewhat relieved but also somewhat nervous about the week ahead. I’m almost done packing the tea bags to send to the participants (if you are in Singapore, it’s not too late to sign up) and I manged to get a little reading. So over the past two… Read More March Rereading Madness: Day 22
