Ace review, ace story telling and most of all, ace writing Ishan! So proud to see you foray into new genres of writing and execute with such panache. Super edition. Loved every bit but particularly the quotes, the reflections and the way in which you brought alive the book in your review.

Thanks Malavika! I am going to put a serious effort into writing about my favourite books regardless of whether they contribute to my "niche" or not. I feel its my duty to critique the books I like. I trust that at some point, these reviews will somehow contribute to the Ishan Shanavas Brand :)

“I’ve never felt more inspired to write my own piece of fiction. You can be sure it will borrow ideas and themes from All the Light We Cannot See.”

When I applied to be a mentor for Write of Passage, one of the questions I was asked is why I felt compelled to write. My answer was reading has done me a lifetime of service ever since I was young.

Love that it’s done the same for you. And what a great overview of the book. Thank you, Ishan.

I love that Alexandra. There is something so transformative about a good story. It takes you to places with you that you never existed. How cool!

I'm always waiting for your recommendations :)
