The Ghostly House
"The Ghostly House" Author: \[Raju Ahmed] The village was called Shalban. A quiet, green-shrouded little village. But it wasn’t just any ordinary village. To the north of the village stood an old, crumbling mansion. It was dubbed "The Haunted House" by everyone. Ever since childhood, I had heard stories about how no one dared go near that house after dusk. Strange noises—sometimes laughter, sometimes crying, and often the sound of footsteps—were said to be heard from there. Villagers believed the mansion once belonged to a landlord named Haripada Roy. But one night, his entire family was mysteriously murdered. Since then, they say, a restless spirit has haunted the house.

“Finding Mr. Write” by Kelley Armstrong (4 stars)
Okay, honestly this one was super adorable. A female writer who uses a male pseudonym, hires a stand-in when she’s asked to be interviewed. Flash forward to her trying to make him look like the tough, rugged mountain man persona she portrays. We love a strong female main character, but the cinnamon roll male who can’t figure out anything without her is one of my absolute favorite tropes.

“Tangled Up in You” by Christina Lauren (4 stars)
I have to start off by admitting that I was a Belle girl, but Rapunzel was a close second. So growing up to read a reimagined, modernized version of Rapunzel was a perfect way to spend an afternoon. If you love romantic, Disney vibes then this is the book for you.

Echoes from the Deep Web
Echoes from the Deep Web --- 1. The Invite I had always been curious — dangerously so. The kind of person who’d rather know the truth and bleed than live in ignorance and comfort.

In a quiet corner of a small town, inside a cramped room with peeling paint and a secondhand desk, sat a young man named Rishi. He wasn’t born into wealth. He didn’t have investors, degrees from top universities, or a safety net. What he did have, though, was a notebook full of sketches, a laptop that barely worked, and a single burning thought:

The Kite Runner" by Khaled Hosseini: In-depth Review
There are some books that you read, and there are some books that read you. They peer into your soul, unravel your thoughts, and leave you fundamentally changed. I still remember the day I picked up this masterpiece at a small bookstore near my university. The cover was simple – a silhouette of a boy running after a kite against a sunset sky. Little did I know that turning those first few pages would lead me down a path that would forever alter how I view friendship, betrayal, and redemption.

The Tree That Remembered Names
In a faraway valley where the sky kissed the mountains and time seemed to sleep beneath the clouds, there stood a strange old tree. No one knew its name, nor how long it had been there. Its bark was etched with symbols like forgotten songs, and its leaves shimmered in colors that didn’t quite belong to any season. The villagers called it The Remembering Tree—not because they remembered it, but because it remembered them. Every spring, the tree would whisper names. No one heard them with ears, but with their hearts. A mother would be walking by and suddenly remember a lullaby her child had loved years ago. A widower would sit under its branches and feel the warmth of a hand he hadn’t held in decades. One day, a young boy named Sami arrived in the village with no memory of who he was or where he came from. The only thing he had was a dream of a tree that spoke in winds and echoed in stars. The villagers took him in kindly, but the boy remained distant, always drawn to the valley’s edge where the Remembering Tree stood. One evening, under a moon heavy with light, Sami stood before the tree and whispered, “Who am I?” The wind didn’t blow. The leaves didn’t rustle. But the air grew warm, like a hug from the past. And then, the tree dropped a single glowing leaf at his feet. When he touched it, memories flooded in: a mother’s laughter, a firelit home in a village lost to war, the soft paws of a dog named Miso. Tears streamed down Sami’s cheeks—not of sadness, but of belonging. From that night on, Sami became the tree’s keeper. He carved names into its roots—not just of those who had passed, but of those who had been forgotten. Travelers came from distant lands to sit by the tree, and somehow, each one left lighter, as if a burden had been lifted. They say the Remembering Tree never dies. As long as one person remembers, the tree blooms. And now, with Sami there, it blooms in stories.
