The Mission Song




“A good man knows when to sacrifice himself,
a bad man survives but loses his soul.”



The Mission Song is a spy thriller novel written by John  le Carré. I pick this book to fulfill one of Pop Sugar Reading Challenge prompt: "A book with a protagonist who has your occupation." Well, if you keep reading this review, you will know what my job is, or rather a part of my job.

A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR #1)





“Be glad of your human heart, Feyre. Pity those who don’t feel anything at all.”




A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) is a Young Adult romance fantasy book by Sarah J. Maas. This book is the first installment of a trilogy with the same title. ACOTAR is also a retelling of Beauty and the Beast—not the one made by Disney, but the original fairy tale written by Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve—mixed with Tam Lin and East of the Sun and West of the Moon. Since I am a sucker for mythology, fairy tale, and folklore retelling, I was so excited to read this book.
