For any author who would like his/her book to be reviewed, contact me. Poetry books too are solicited for reviewing. However, there are some genres I tend to avoid. Feel free to ask me.

Thoughts on the event:
Glad I could finish one book! I also did the Feed my Seymore challenge. You can see that in my previous post. And now I can call it a day. It is 1:26 AM and I can barely keep awake now.
Drabble Challenge hosted by Kate of midnight book girl
It was just my luck. I was in nowhere land. I don't know how I had landed up there. Only material possession I had, were the clothes I was wearing. I looked around and saw some fruit trees. And a clear stream flowing some distance away. At least my hunger and thirst would be satisfied.
I fell on my knees and tried to focus. I saw something glint, a short distance away. I walked there and found it to be a wreckage of an aircraft. I climbed into it gingerly. And hit a jackpot. A loadful of books spilling over..
