• Book Review : ‘More than coffee’ by Lauren Scott

  

  If I had to describe Lauren’s book in one line, I would say, ‘the book is a quick read on the author’s life that leaves you feeling warm, like ‘Peiskos’ ( the feeling of sitting in front of a fire enjoying its warmth). She begins the book, ‘More than coffee’ by talking about the brew- […]
