My Reading Roundup (Aug 2025)

The Collector’s Apprentice by B. A. Shapiro

I have always loved Shapiro’s way of melding art history with fiction and this book does not disappoint. Another engrossing art mystery that would appeal to any art lover.

The Days Toppled Over by Vidya Madabushi

Set in Bangalore and Sydney, this novel turned out to be a one that was both instructive of the precarious international student experience as well as a (potentially) realistic story. I highly recommend this and thoroughly enjoyed the read.
