Fiction

Life of Pi serves a great lesson – to have faith in the toughest of times. You may not be a religious person, but I recommend Yann Martel’s Life of Pi, he does an exceptional job of carrying the theme through to the reader.

Serving as the inaugural book for a new series, “Nothing Ventured” is a genial introduction to William Warwick. With likable characters and some interesting twists in the plot, the narrative keeps the reader’s interest.

'Fait Accompli’ by Anubhav Shankar begins in Russia in 1941 on a late afternoon when the weather is heavy and everyone can feel that something is about to happen and it does, in the worse(!) way imaginable.

A Sweet Deal by Andaleeb Wajid is really a fun book if you're looking for something heart-warming and whimsical and, I guess you could say, *sweet*.

The focus of 'U n Me... It's Complicated' seems to be romance but as the story unfurls it becomes clear that it is much more about self discovery, relationships and the expectations we place on ourselves and others to cope with these relationships.
