#BookReview: How I Became a Farmers Wife by Yashodhara Lal

The joy of holding the book and reading it can never be the same as reading an ebook. Eva! Soo, reading How I Became a Farmer’s Wife by Yashodhara Lal was fabulous. Reading it was soo much fun. Also I know my reviews are very breezy and not in depth, but my intention is not to dissect a book or the author’s writing. Instead, it is to tell you whether to read it or not and what I thought about it. 🙂 Lets get on with the review now. Yay or Nay Definitely yay. For the authors writing. It’s almost like you are watching the protagonists go about their lives…

#BookReview: Kartikeya – The Destroyer’s Son by Anuja Chandramouli

After a fabulous interview with the author Anuja Chandramouli (Read it here if you haven’t yet ;)), she was kind to send me her book set to read. I love receiving books, I think it is the best kind of gesture. But due to the 100 things that came up, I haven’t still been able to complete reading all. But I plan to finish them all by the next month end. 😉 Here is my review of Kartikeya by Anuja Chandramouli. Yay or Nay Yay, for there aren’t many books that give you a glimpse of Kartikeya. Being one of the most famous Gods among the South Indians specifically, I…

#BookReview: Tumula by Sudha Murty (Kannada Book)

I have grown up reading books. You know that already :). Let me write it better. I have grown up reading books in English. My home language is Kannada, but never did I read Kannada books. Why? Well, I always thought it would be difficult and I would never enjoy it. My father and family are voracious readers, who savor Kannada writing. Thanks to my sister Bindu, am taking the plunge into Kannada literature. Tumula by Sudha Murty is my first Kannada book. <3 Yay or Nay Yay. Tumula is a book with many faces to it and brings out a valuable message in the most beautiful way possible. If…

#eBookReview: The Big Switch by John Thomas

The journey of the #YearOfBooks for 2018 is so far much better than I had expected. Am hoping the momentum remains and I will be able to hit the no.65 on my Goodreads Reading Challenge 2018.

#eBookReview: When Women Speak Up by Women’s Web

The end of 2017 was an epiphany. #IHaveAVoiceToo, my Blogchatter Project in December, to urge people to fight against sexism and embrace feminism gave me a clarity as to what I would be focusing on, in 2018. Throughout the campaign, the main goal was to get people to talk about sexism because I strongly believe that change starts when people speak up. When Women Speak Up by Women’s Web is a book that lead to the same path. It shows what can happened When Women Speak Up for themselves or for other women. Here is my review of the book. Yay or Nay Yay times 100 million. When Women Speak…

#eBookReview: 17 Fascinating Women From The Mahabharatha by Sharath Komarraju

17 Fascinating Women From The Mahabharatha by Sharath Komarraju is the second book for the #YearofBooks 2018 I read(The first book is here). Okay I have to confess, I have started reading books on Kindle app on my phone and I must say am loving it. I almost feel like am cheating on my paperbacks and hardcover. 🙁 But really, the traffic in Jakarta means oodles of time sitting idle and the new Samsung galaxy S8 sure added to the need for the Kindle App. I not only read faster, but I don’t need to carry a heavy load around. But I don’t wish to turn into a e-reader completely,…
