Beautifully Imperfect, Flawlessly Incomplete is a lovely collection of poems from the debut poet/author Fiza Meeraj. This was a beautiful book and I am happy to have read it.

BOOK REVIEW : THE AMERICAN CRUSADE BY MARK SPIVAK
The American Crusade is a political thriller based on real-life events. When I saw the synopsis for this book, I wanted to see how the author will approach the story.

It also helps you in navigating the story connecting the people and places mentioned in the book…
