Hey there! I’m Khadijah Eniife Olalekan — certified book lover and proud literary explorer of the African continent. While some people collect souvenirs, I collect stories, especially the ones that come alive from African novels. From the bustling streets of Lagos to the quiet villages of Zimbabwe, I’ve lived a thousand lives through the pages of books. When I’m not reading, I’m probably talking about what I just read, recommending a book to …

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I'm starting my week off reading The Gaia Chime, by Johnny Worthen. It's a mystery/horror in which 2 documentarians accidentally capture a murder that opens up this whole worldwide phenomenon that is causing people to turn on loved ones. You know... A nice, light happy read! I'm about 1/3 of the way in and I'm very intrigued. What are you reading this week?

How do you like to read? Years ago I tried an ereader and didn't love it, but it was early days of ereaders and maybe I need to try again. Loosing the ability to read when we were camping didn't work for me, clearly I didn't think it through. Having to keep it charged was too much! It was in the days before you could charge devices everywhere. I've made the plunge into audiobooks and love to listen while tackling mundane tasks like cleaning, …

I moved to Guelph in 2023 when I married my husband who grew up here. I love Guelph and all it has to offer. I love that we have the …

Hi everyone!! So excited to be a host for this Reading space for Guelph. I'm currently reading Evocation, by S.T. Gibson. The sequel is coming out soon, and I recommend it if you like fantasy, mystery and a little romance on the side! I have two different versions of this one, do you have a preference? What are you reading to start the week?

Just about to finish this read by Kristin Harmel. Has anyone else read it? Its a fantastic easy, well written and compelling read of historical fiction. Cant wait to see how it ends. There's been a late twist.... 33 pages to go! Stay tuned for my final assessment.

Sometimes people read books, other times they read scripts, like I am currently reading! "THE FOURSOME" by Norm Foster. "A group of four friends that reunite after their college reunion, decide to play a round of golf together. They reminisce about their lives and confront issues related to middle age, like careers, relationships and health, all while navigating the dynamics of their long-standing friendship."
