C – Celebrate

Posted on August 3, 2021August 3, 2021 by Sonali

C is to celebrate this beautiful gift of life. One thing that this pandemic has taught me is that life is transient and planning is futile. I have started appreciating how people felt in war times. We are waging a war against a virus and it has shone light on some home truths that we…

B – Believe, Balance, Bliss

Posted on August 2, 2021 by Sonali

B for me is always synonymous with Believe – belief in myself, belief in the future, belief in the world. It always starts there – without a solid belief it is very easy to feel lost in this world full of self doubt and negativity. We are surrounded by news and messages about what is…

Day 25 – A character I can relate to the most

Posted on October 27, 2020 by Sonali

I am a fan of Jane Green books. I have quite a few of them and love reading them from time to time. Her book The Other Woman is one of my favourite. I can quite relate to Elle from the book. The emotions she goes through adjusting to a new family were very familiar….

Day 24 – A book I wish more people would have read

Posted on October 25, 2020 by Sonali

Reading is personal! My reading habits are very different from others and I think it would be same for them. So it would be hard for me to say which book should be read by whom. The one book I can think of that I hope is read by more people is The Hindi Bindi…

Day 23 – A book I wanted to read for a long time but still haven’t!

Posted on October 23, 2020 by Sonali

I will name two books that I bought because I wanted to read them but still haven’t. I have the books but for some reason or the other haven’t read them. The first one is Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert. Now I bought the book a few years ago and was meant to read…

Day 22 – A book that makes me cry

Posted on October 22, 2020December 30, 2021 by Sonali

I am quite an imaginative and emotional person. So when I read books, it is like a movie going in my head. Human stories always make me cry as they are real. Currently I am reading Humans by Brandon Stanton from Humans of New York. It has some touching stories from across the world. The…

Day 21 – The first novel I remember reading

Posted on October 21, 2020 by Sonali

The very first novel I remember reading was Enid Bayton ā€œMagic Faraway Treeā€. I vividly remember it as I was fully enchanted by the end of it. I was fascinated by the English life and the story of the 3 kids. What initially surprised me was how they talked in the book that the kids…

Day 20 – Favourite romance book

Posted on October 20, 2020December 30, 2021 by Sonali

Being a thorough romantic, I love reading this genre. When I was a young girl, as per the time bound tradition, I read Mills and Boon. Now it does give you a distorted view about romance but they were my first romantic novel. Since then I have read classic love stories like Pride and Prejudice…

Day 18 – A book that disappointed me

Posted on October 19, 2020December 30, 2021 by Sonali

My reading is very eclectic. I will pick up a book, not like it and then keep it away. I will pick it up again after months and it will become my favourite book. It all depends on my state of mind when I am reading a particular book. I am hoping it is not…
