To my fellow American readers, Happy 4th of July from our beautiful nation's capital!
Welcome!
Welcome! I’m Swapna Krishna, and this is where you’ll find my book reviews. Feel free to look through my review database. I also host the South Asian Review Database and run the South Asian Challenge, which promote the authors and literature of the region.
I do accept books for review, but please take a look at my review policy before pitching me a book. If you have any questions, please contact me.
