About me

Namaste from India!

I am a voracious reader, a struggling writer, a newbie blogger, and an amateur content creator, exploring stories from all over the world.

For me, stories are not just a pastime; they are a lifeline—a way to experience the world through the eyes of others, to live a thousand lives, to travel without moving an inch.

Currently, writing and editing Bookish Bubble, I have previously edited fiction at The Finest Example and Bulbul’s Bubble. So, you might also know me as Bulbul.

Although, I hold a Master’s in Life Sciences, but I have always been passionate about stories and writing. Someday, I want to author a novel. Other than books, I love food, and nature.

About blog

My love for stories transcends mediums. Whether it’s the rustling pages of a hardcover, the soft glow of an e-reader, the immersive world of audiobooks, or the dynamic world of movies, each form is a cherished portal to adventure.

On this blog, “Bookish Bubble,” you’ll find a treasure trove of tales. Here, I share reviews that capture the essence of storytelling, from the narrative arc of the latest bestseller to the thematic depth of an indie novella.

Bookish Bubble is a haven for those who believe in the power of stories to change us, to challenge us, and to connect us. It’s a place where every story matters, and every reader is welcome.

Join me on this journey through genres, where every review is an invitation to discover the magic of stories, and every recommendation is a key to unlock new realms of imagination.

Expect delicious reads, book reviews, and an occasional writing challenge! I hope you enjoy this blog.

For your reference, this is the face behind everything.
