Weekend Reads & TV Shows.

Hello! 

Weekend is here and I am so glad for this week to be over! 

My plans for this weekend are simple..Read and watch a TV show I've been loving! 


 My current read//// Another Man's Wife by Manjul Bajaj. A collection of short stories set in India and by an author I've never read from before. So I am excited to read this book. I am only a few pages in but I do like the writing style and the stories all seem interesting.



Next Read/// It's time to delve back into the world of Feluda again. I love Feluda and Ray's stories are always delightful  to read and re-visit. It's been a little over 6 years since I read this and I am excited to get back to this. :)


Weekend Watching/// UnReal---I discovered this show this week and I am so in love and obsessed with this show. It's based on the behind the scenes of a reality TV show which is supposed to be like The Bachelor. It shows the contestants and their struggles and politics and also the producers of the show trying to get the best TV moments ever. It is interesting and disturbing and hardcore and a really intense show. 

It's great for those who love shows like this and any other reality show. I am not the biggest reality fan but I do watch a few shows here and there. It was interesting to see how people are manipulated and 'produced' into being volatile and loud and fighting.

I am loving this show. I only have five more episodes to watch to complete the first season.

What are your plans this weekend?

Have a lovely weekend guys :)
