I'm glad that you mentioned Train to Pakistan. It's a timeless classic yet not much talked about.

the palace of illusions and shadow lines have been sitting on my shelf for quite some time now. this has to be a sign for me to give them a go!

i really love your book recommendations will love to see more of ur videos in the future

Love your recaps of the books ❤

I had heard about the Palace of Illusions from a friend; didn't pay much attention then. Now that you've recommended, I immediately added it to my TBR and started it. The plot and theme seem really intriguing. I couldn't help but delve into it right away.

I would like to highly recommend you "Forest of Enchantments " by chitra banerjee divakaruni ..it's the book who made me fall in love with ramayana❤️ And "palace of illusions" would be my next must read.

I found this video while reading The Palace of Illusions. Very well written.

another day of asking you for a reading vlog of "A Good Girl's Guide To Murder" series. Would love to see that along with the new Holly Jackson book "The Reappearance of Rachel Price"💝

They are not literature. Moral preachings that you may like if you have stomach for people preaching to you, but not literature by any yardstick.

I’ve heard this book is really good! I’ll definitely check it out. The Namesake resonated with me and my experience of emigrating to the US when I was younger. There are definitely other experiences which are not as privileged, and I’d love to read about those perspectives too!

8:12 the only book that i guessed correctly your list 😅

Steer clear of Devdutt Pattanaik & his 'books/retellings'. PLEASE!

Kindly made a video of reviewing percy jackson series (like which book do you like the most) ?
