I am Mathi, aka, Mowgli with a book.I am an avid reader, novice writer and amateur photographer. Reading is my escape, my personal way of growing as a person and a means to experience the world from different perspectives. How would I know about the bullying faced by a Black Queer man or the joy a Korean woman experiences on her first dive, if not through different books capturing the details and emotions of these varied characters? I believe books unlock something new for me and am always looking for the next book to read.

I started my bookstagram page on Instagram in 2019 to share my love of books. This blog is to give me the space to talk about everything bookish beyond the 2200 characters Instagram allows. I hope you will like hanging out with me and can find your next read here.
