Again, with exciting topics and foreshadowing, I will retell the tales that captivated my heart and soul.

In the film, there several questions arise while thinking of human relations. It is a mystery to oneself how human bonds works actually. While there are many explanations regarding that matter, many questions are left unanswered.

It is not easy to look at someone else's perspective. As the sense of sympathy does not come naturally to everyone. That is why I am writing Josee the Tiger and the Fish Review.

I have taken a long break and come back with a hot topic to discuss with you. Though I was busy with my project work, I did not waste my leisure completely. I knew it was ample time to take up my long list of books that I had not read yet. One of them was particularly The Book Thief by Marcus Zusak. It is a best-seller and also quite renowned for its sweet narrative.  I had an eye for Marcus Zusak's, The Book Thief for many years. I already collected it in 2019. But it stayed there on my shelf with those unread ones.  From my first impression, I understand that it is a book that's easy to love. And one who admittedly walks the line between young adult fiction and more important literature will find it more interesting. The central theme of this book is the power of words. Though it is not something unique to be proud I have gotten to know the story more as I have started to appreciate Zusak's storytelling. He takes this simple theme and weaves it into every aspect of the na...
