Books to Read During Quarantine

The new year is meant to bring with it a glimmer of hope for a better life. For a lot of us, it means new promises reinforced with plans to become the best versions of ourselves. Yet our 2020 vision has turned somewhat blurry. As we find ourselves in these uncertain times, we are almost desperate to seek a semblance of normalcy in our daily routines at home. For me, I find my solace in books. That's why I think it's only appropriate to share a few books I truly loved reading and highly recommend. 

Review: The Alchemist

I have always thought that in this time of my life, at 21 years old, I would have everything figured out. It turns out that I only have some certainty for what the immediate future holds. As for what I envision myself to be in 10, even 5 years from now, the picture remains murky and obscure. Yet, reading The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho (my new favourite author), I have been steadied and comforted by the words of wisdom embedded in the story, as well as the insights of life I have gained.
