Here, I post book reviews. They can be Khmer (Cambodian), English, or Japanese books, so I hope you find something interesting for you. In each book review, there's not only my thought on it, but also some information about the book, such as genre and content warning (if there's one), so that you can prepare yourselves if you decide to read it.
At first, I was reluctant to do it because my writing isn’t even that good (as you can see in my novel). But reviewing book can help me organize my thought not only on the books themselves, but also on myself and society. Also, I write a review not as a writer, but as a reader, just like the people reviewing an anime even though they can't make one themselves. Therefore, I decided to do it anyway.
I'm happy to receive any comment concerning my review or the book because I also want to know and exchange idea with you!
