Book Review: The Picture of Dorian Gray

There is no other way to put this, but the Picture of Dorian Gray is tantalizingly despicable. Tagged as horror in Goodreads, I was not prepared that this is even darker than Frankenstein. The reader might at first find comfort at reading the almost poetic prose but as you delve deeper into the story, you will find that it’s almost perverse. How can the writing exude such lyricism when the story is about this boy whose life story is as deplorable as it can be? Can you imagine looking at something so horrid that it’s mesmerizing and that you cannot…

Book Review: Strange Beasts

What a refreshing book this is! Granted that I have been a long time fan of Sherlock Holmes and anything to do with the fandom that it was with a bias that I picked the Strange Beasts from Netgalley without any hesitation. Of course, world of Sherlock Holmes + Fantasy with magical beasts involved= COUNT ME IN PLEASE! And here, take my money! Sherlock Holmes, was of course, not present in this book but rather it’s a story of two determined and goal-oriented ladies who are working for the Royal Society for the Study of Abnormal Phenomenon (RSSAP) in London,…
