BOOKS I READ AND WHY I LOVED THEM

A cup of coffee, your favourite novel and a rainy day- perfect ambience to read a novel right? However, deciding on what to read is a tough task. I have been a huge fan of novels by Indian authors because of their simplicity. This quarantine, I spent a huge deal of time reading novels and I am going to share with you all the books I read and why I loved them. So, enjoy reading! (Sorry for most of the books being romantic!)

1. THE BOY YOU'VE LOVED READING ABOUT BY DURJOY DATTA
This is a series of two books- The Boy Who Loved and The Boy with a Broken Heart. It's the story of a boy named Raghu Ganguly, who is deeply affected by the accidental death of his friend, Sami. The best thing about the books are their story-telling format. They are written in the form of a personal diary. The first book is the diary of Raghu Ganguly and the second one is Advaita Vaid's. It's a heart-wrenching tale of teenage love and adresses a lot of issues that are prevalent in the Indian society. It has a mysterious ending in the second book, so you can expect a third book in the series. If you are a lover of romantic novels, this is surely worth a try.

2. THE RAMCHANDRA SERIES BY AMISH TRIPATHI
The Ramchandra Series is a mythological series comprising of three books (for now)- Scion of Ikshvaku, Sita- Warrior of Mithila, Raavan- Enemy of Aryavarta. The three books are the tales of Ramayana through the perspectives of Ram, Sita and Raavan. I love reading mythological books and these books make you look at the epic through a different eye. My personal favourite is Raavan, because it makes you empathise with the antagonist. The books have a mystery air build up around them and are a must-read for anyone who loves Indian Mythology.

3. The Girl I Last Loved by Smita Kaushik
This book is the tale of a person Akash and his unending love for Kasam, whom he has loved from school to college to finally, the life after. However, even if they have loved each other, destiny and time doesn't seem to unite them.This is a story of the play of destiny in the tale of love and should be tried by anyone who loves romantic genre.

4. Something I Never Told You by Shravya Bhinder
Not lying, but I have come to love this book. Maybe because of its simplicity in story-telling or a very relatable story in the Indian society or because I read it most recently. This is a story of two people uniting in love and how differences can take away something very beautiful forever. It is also a book which shows that we, as humans realise our mistakes way too late- when the damage is done. In for a heart-wrenching tale of ups and downs? Go, grab this book now.

Foods that We Bengalis Love!

Hello, people! Long time, no see, right? First of all, thanks for being patient with my irregularity and my nonsense talks. We will discuss everything in my next blog which is an interactive post (if you remember that alternating interactive post rule). So, what is this blog all about? Well, well, as the title and the banner suggests, this post is all about the food and the meals that Bengalis love, because after all, I am a Bengali. I feel like, Bengalis have this craze for food and cooking that is very unique to the Bengalis. Also, read till the end for a short surprise that not just Bengalis but every person in this whole world absolutely loves. Moreover, do not forget to share your experiences with your regional food and share this post with your friends because, please🥺👉👈.      A lot of people, who do not belong from Bengal would have this question which is what is the food in the banner. So, that is called Paatishaapta, a sweet savoury which is basica...

The Blissful Feeling

Hello, people! First of all, I am sorry because all of you were waiting and waiting for my next blog and I have been pretty irregular. There were few people who even texted me and asked when was my next blog post coming up. There were pretty much a lot of things going on- from the essence of joining a college, to assignments, to internal examinations, to life, to everything :') However, I am back! Sit back, sip into your tea or coffee and give this a read.                   "Love is in the air", isn't it? You can see people holding hands, looking deep into each other's eyes and what not! So, let's talk love today. I think love is the purest feeling in this whole world. Doesn't matter it is towards your partner, parents, sibling or friend, there can be no emotion more sincere than love. If you ask me, I can daydream all day long about love(like it happens in movies), but I am very shy in expressing love. Love, I believe can never be skin-...

First things first! You people have been amazing supporters. In the brightest days or the darkest ones, you have never backed off from supporting a small blogger like me. My thank you-s are pretty less, I know, I know, but here is your blogger right at your service, with another blog! Let's dive into the blog!             Are you too buzzed by the constant buzzing of the city? Do you often think that, the pollution, the routine and in top of that, this pandemic situation is too much to bear with? Well, I thought so too. Thus, I started the journey to my native village: Away from the Buzz; Into the Greens!  The journey starts with the waters. Imagine a winter afternoon on a , in the sparkling waters with the Sun shining on them, the warmth making you feel cozy because it is chilly winter after all. You are sitting with a group of people you have never met before, united by the same destiny. That's what journeys do to us, right? Make us meet...
