  • Movie Adaptations šŸŽ„

    What book to movie adaptations do you think were done well and/or poorly?? I always thought they did a good job with The Hunger Games, there were even aspects that I think they did better in the movie like developing Effie’s character and softening Haymitch a bit. I didn’t watch it, but the movie adaptation of the book Relic PMO bc they CUT the main character from the movie. Like?? He’s the only reason this story has a purpose šŸ˜‚

  • Go to Genre

    What is your go to genre, and why? Also, what is a genre you don't actually read super often, but when you do, you always wonder why you don't read it all the time?

    I desperately wanted to like this book more. I loved the author's first novel, Star Daughter (highly recommend). I even loved parts of this book. The problem is that the parts I didn't like were about half the book. I love Tanvi and her story. I love the plot that the book follows. But I couldn't bring myself to get invested in Venkat and his narration. On paper his story is interesting, but in practice, his felt less deep and less compelling than Tanvi's. I feel like the book would have been better if the perspective was split between Tanvi and Nitya instead. That said, I really did love Tanvi's perspective. A little confusing at times, but then, she was just as confused to it wasn't too hard to read. I enjoyed reading as she slowly regained her personhood and the struggle between her past and future. I wanted more of that. Also the romance element felt fine but unnecessary, but that may just be me. I'm just dipping into the world of Hindu mythology so I may have missed some references but I didn't struggle to follow the story because of it. Overall, I'd recommend the book to an avid reader who is looking to expand their horizons, but I don't think I'd recommend it to someone who reads more sparingly.

    I want to like Venkat's parts of the story more, but I just want to get back to Tanvi's.

    It's happened a few times that it feels like the author deleted a paragraph somewhere during editing and didn't rewrite to adjust for the change so it feels like context is missing. I didn't notice this at all in her other novel, Star Daughter (which I loved), so I'm wondering if it's intentional?
