Rereading an old favourite To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee.I think I could be in love with Atticus. "People generally see what they look for and hear what they listen for." "Ladies in bunches always filled me with vague apprehension and a firm desire to be elsewhere."#tokillamockingbird #harperlee #harperleequotes #atticus #epicreads #iconicbook #foreverfavourite #alltimefavourite #bookblogger #booked #bookedandbusy #bookstagramindia #booksandbeyond #goodreads #iloveclassics #readabook #readersofinsta #instabooklovers #instabooks

One Amazing Thing by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni A set of stories against the backdrop of an earthquake that brought a group of people together.The individual stories are nothing extraordinary rather quite everyday yet they are meant to have a profound impact on the listener.This is like an experiment in weaving a novel with stories..The author's storytelling prowess shines through as she reveals intimate details about the characters as the story progresses..The writing is flowing..Still somehow this book failed to find a place like the previous ones -Palace of illusions,Mistress of spices..I rate this one a 3.7 on 5..#chitrabanerjeedivakaruni #indianwriters #indianauthors #avidreader #booksbooksandmorebooks #bookblogger #booksbooksbooks #booklover #bookaesthetics #readabook #bookstagramindia #bookpile #bookwormsunite #bookworm

"Let yourself go. Pull out from the depths those thoughts that you do not understand, and spread them out in the sunlight and know the meaning of them." A room with a view by EM Forster A story about a woman's coming of age,from ambivalence to fulfillment ... I am a Classics Fan.. What about you? Which is your favourite Classic? #aroomwithaview #emforster #classics #lovereading #italy #florence #readersofinsta #readersofinstagram #bookblogger #booked #booksofinstagram #bookaesthetics #booksbooksandmorebooks #booksbooksbooks #bookstagrramers #bookstagramindia#booksofig #bookwormlife

"Isolation offered its own form of ompanionship: the reliable silence of her rooms, the steadfast tranquility of the evenings. The promise that she would find things where she put them, that there would be no interruption, no surprise. It greeted her at the end of each day and lay still with her at night. She had no wish to overcome it. Rather, it was something upon which she’d come to depend, with which she’d entered by now into a relationship, more satisfying and enduring than the relationships she’d experienced in either of her marriages." I absolutely love Jhumpa Lahiri's writing. Very evocative and immersive..Though I liked her previous works , The Interpreter of Maladies, The Namesake and the Unaccustomed Earth far more than The Lowland..The Lowland is a haunting book .The breaking of familial ties,the resulting sadness and the feeling of being unanchored is beautifully captured. Inspite of this , I found the book slow at certain places and that's why I don't rate it as highly as her other works. #jhumpalahiri #calcutta #bengal #storiesoﬁndia #readabook #bookblogger #booksbooksbooks #booksbooksandmorebooks #booksofinstagram #bookstagrramers #booklovers #booknerds #readersofinstagram #readersunite #readersofig #readersofinsta #readerslife #bookaesthetics #bookishlove

Book Review-The year I met you by Neha Singh Sometimes you read books that seem to be straight out of your own lives.This is one such book .A sense of deja vu and poignancy ,both were what I felt while reading this.I was back at college .The difficulty with stats,the mess,the splitting of the sweet treat,the heartaches,the obsession with Facebook updates, the beginnings of a romance .. Everything took me down the memory lane It brought back many old happy memories and heartaches that were stowed away in some dark, unreachable recess of my mind.A light read but definite to brighten up your day.I also liked how the author has brought anxiety issues to the fore and how it can afflict anyone irrespective of age ..An entertaining read!!#indianauthor #debutnovel #debutnovelist #college_diaries #memoriesliveon #collegedays #readabook #booksbooksbooks #booksbooksandmorebooks #booknerd #bookishlove #amazonreviewer #kindlereads #booklovers #bookblogger
