Lamentations of your unemployed friend in their twenties (excerpt from my diary)

My phone storage is full. I need to get my life together. I don’t have the leverage of being a student with at least some time still to go before I graduate to decide what’s next.

3 a.m. Thoughts: The Sound of a Violin in the Thunderstorm

SERENITY: POEMS by F. S. Yousaf – a review

Serenity: Poems I’ve read this collection a while back, as an ARC, just as it was coming out. Without any spoilers, I am sharing my thoughts. When I stumbled upon this collection, I was sceptical to read it, because for me, poetry has a great ability to slip into pretention. Truth is, I didn’t knowContinueContinue reading “SERENITY: POEMS by F. S. Yousaf – a review”
