📕 BLOG TOUR REVIEW📕 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗚𝗢-𝗕𝗘𝗧𝗪𝗘𝗘𝗡 Osman Yousefzada ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ⬅️𝗦𝘄𝗶𝗽𝗲 𝗹𝗲𝗳𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗼𝗽𝘀𝗶𝘀 Today, I am taking my turn on the blog tour of The Go-Between, hosted by Random Things Tours on behalf of Canongate Books. Thank you for my spot on the tour, and for a copy of the book in exchange for my honest review. 𝗠𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 I knew of Osman from his stunning ‘Infinity’ pattern around Selfridges in Birmingham, and had heard about his clothing being worn by A list celebs. Other than an article in The guardian, this is my first read by Osman. The book recounts the author’s upbringing among the mainly Pakistani immigrant community in 1970s and 80s Birmingham. Growing up in the close knit communities, misunderstood and untrusted by locals. The way the author’s early life in strictly patriarchal groups among other migrant communities, the misogyny, separation of children by gender, and honour based violence, all shaped his view of the world and influenced his future was insightful, and his style of writing made this a pleasurable read, which opening my eyes about the other cultures we share our towns and cities with. Overall, I think this is a well written book, which would appeal to anyone from our multicultural communities. I gave The Go-between, by Osman Yousefzada, four stars.

“Notes On A Nervous Planet” ~ By Matt Haig Today, we have never been more connected and we have never been more alone. Thanks to Social Media, we can connect to people living miles away instantly; within seconds. 🌏 But are we really still HAPPY? 👍👎 We’re constantly glued to our phones, helplessly browsing through social media applications, trying our best to keep up with social media’s evolving landscapes and trends. 📱💻 It feels more like a competition making this entire experience even more unpleasant which leads to anxiety, stress, depression & mental health issues. Matt Haig is one of the most exceptional writers of our time and this book is a handbook to our modern day problems. If you’re feeling low or even not and just need to pick up a book that is honest, I would recommend this book. I don’t usually read a lot of Self- help books but somehow I keep re-reading this one, it’s super engaging and full of wisdom. If I have to rate this book out of 5, I would give it 5/5 .⭐️ Let me know if you’ll read this one or have read it, and also give in suggestions for self-help books.📚 #notesonanervousplanet #notesonanervousplanetmatthaig #matthaig #selfhelpbooks #selflove #selfcare #canongatebooks #canongate #canongateuk #sundayvibes #sundayreads #sundaymornings #sundayreading #sundayreflection #bookreview #bookreviewers #bookstagram #booklover #booknerds #booknerdigans (at Bandra World of Storytellers) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEyCsO7J1nk/?igshid=19trtiuon5pjb

This November Canongate is hosting their first ever Canongate read-along and they chose my book The Coward. all through November. While you read along I'll be sharing some behind the scenes content and answering questions you might have about the book. Canongate has some plans as well with Instagram stories for fun polls, quizzes and more at the end of each week as we read-along together. Here's the details: If you want to join and read The Coward with us ✨ swipe ✨ to see what the read-along calendar looks like. We’d love to know what you think of the book as you read-along with us. Tag any of your reading update photos and stories with #thecowardreadalong and @canongatebooks so we can find them! The Coward follows Jarred, who discovers he’ll never walk again after a car accident. He has no money and no job. Worse still, he’s forced to live back home with the father he hasn’t spoken to in ten years. As Jarred tries to piece his life together again, he looks back over his past – the tragedy that blasted his family apart, why he ran away, the damage he’s caused himself and others – and starts to wonder whether, maybe, things don’t always have to stay broken after all. The Coward is about hurt and forgiveness. It’s about how the world treats disabled people. And it’s about how we write and rewrite the stories we tell ourselves about our lives – and try to find a happy ending. https://www.instagram.com/p/CVUu445s4MI/?utm_medium=tumblr

A Corruption of Blood by Ambrose Parry
The one where I review book three in the historical crime series by the team of Dr. Marisa Haetzman and Chris Brookmyre, otherwise known as Ambrose Perry. My thanks to @NetGalley_UK and @canongatebooks for providing an eARC. #AmReading
DISCLAIMER: I received an advanced reader copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in return for an honest review. This is the third outing for Ambrose Parry, the wife and husband team of consultant anaesthetist Dr. Marisa Haetzman and crime writer Chris Brookmyre, and once again I have to admit it’s another absolutely cracking tale of mystery and murder. This time around, the team of…

2021 | Thom Yorke & Stanley Donwood - Fear Stalks the Land!: A Commonplace Book #thomyorke #stanleydonwood #canongate #canongatepublishing #canongatebooks @thomyorke @stanleydonwood @canongatebooks Blurb: „In which the writings of the authors Thom Yorke and Stanley Donwood are gathered together. This commonplace book includes faxes, notes, fledgling lyrics, sketches, lists of all kinds and scribblings towards nirvana, as were sent between the two authors during the period 1999 to 2000 during the creation of the Radiohead albums Kid A and Amnesiac. This is a document of the creative process and a mirror to the fears, portents and fantasies invoked by the world as its citizens faced a brave new millennium.“ Independent: „A celebration of the ideas, both written and drawn, that were behind the creation of the Radiohead albums Kid A and Amnesiac … Includes faxes, notes, scribblings and sketches that musician Yorke and artist Donwood exchanged in the run-up to the creation of two iconic albums” https://www.instagram.com/p/CZJKwC8MDDD/?utm_medium=tumblr
