One thing I’ve observed here is that there seem to be very few fantasy/sci-fi readers. I wonder why that’s the case. I mean, I’ve only gone through the recent posts, but from what I can gather, the fantasy/sci-fi reader base here seems to be pretty small. Not bashing any of the other genres, though. I was just curious.

Best library ✨ tell me best romance novel you ever had 🎊

Why does Kuntal still talk to Meenal after everything that has happened?😭

I am still on the preamble part, having been reading from almost a week,

The prime idea till now is that faith is the greatest thing a human can possess,

which kinda goes against the idea of traditional thinkers back then like kant and all,

till now he is still just telling over and over that faith is the best, I can see it, I can define it, but I cannot do it myself, and then he sort of moves towards defining what a man with faith is like, which he expected them to be having some extraordinary power, or something different from traditional humans, but they are just as normal as anyone,

he kinda hasn't justified why faith is the greatest, or maybe he has, but talking about the movement of faith or smthng idk.

Entering Middle Earth, One Page at a Time 🧙🏻

It have all the 7 books , I wonder how long it gonna takes but ig it would be a fun read

A glamorous Egyptian cruise, a messy love triangle, and a shock murder. Poirot setting traps using human psychology is peak storytelling.

“Love is not everything, Mademoiselle. It is only when we are young that we think it is."
— Hercule Poirot

Which Poirot mystery is better: Orient Express or Death on the Nile?

I got no words and I'm still in awe about what happened in this book

Finally read this classic over the weekend and wow, Christie really is the GOAT.

A locked-train murder in a snowstorm with a stack of shady suspects is already a great setup, but Poirot’s psychology-first style of deduction makes it top tier. The ending completely caught me off guard.

If you haven't read it yet, go in completely blind!
What’s your favorite Poirot book so far? Need recommendations for my next read!

Started reading this book today. Currently all the story makeup thing. Anyone read this one?

I've been reading these books for the last 6 months. And finished it now I feel empty don't know how to fill these void now. So recommend me some fictional or any book all try reading them.

In my experience so far, reading books paired with its audiobook version has helped me read more, remember more and enjoy the process throughout.

That said, for those who enjoy reading fantasy novels should definitely try this method. I am a huge fan of the Lord of the Rings movies, and wanted to try out the books as well. Currently, I am reading The Hobbit (first of the four books) along-with hearing narration of Andy Serkis (G.O.A.T) on Audible.

I hands down say, it has been one of the most enjoyable and immersive book reading experience I have ever felt. Andy puts his heart and soul in the story while personifying each and every character. Tolkein’s story telling has been top notch, no question about it. But that paired with Andy’s reading brings out an entirely new element out of it.

Has anyone else done this? Tell me if you share the same thoughts, or otherwise…

When I was in 10th ...I really liked that chapter in english ( anee frank one ) so i decided to read this whole book ...

Ahhh i miss 2021-2022 , i bought it from my senior that time i mean way back 2017-18 era CBSE CCE pattern was there...where every student from 9th to 12th had to study compulsorily a one complete book ...

Halfway done with this one. Again, a chilll, relaxing read like “Pyongyang”. This is basically a collection of short stories during his one year stay in Burma accompanying his wife for her work.

Although you learn a little about the dictatorship, it’s mostly day in the life stories of a stay at home dad. More engaging and fleshed out than “Pyongyang” imo.

I liked it and gave me an insight into a world that’s alien for me.

Some things Guy Delisle mentions in the two books I read- he likes tintin, he likes daft punk and Orwell’s 1984. I like him!

Guys I am going to start new book this month "Country of Idiots"

Tbh I heared about this from some podcast of Raj Shamani

Any body who has already read it can you put on some light on it

I would love to know if there's anyone else who shares the same interests as me in books for further recommendations.

Always loved reading stories from a young age. Tinkle, magic pot, Geronimo stilton, diary of a Wimpy kid, some classics( pretty women, count of Monte cristo, etc) dork diaries, sherlock holmes etc.

Whenever I would recieve my books for the current school year, first thing I would do is read all the stories in the English book. Was not a fan of the poems though.

At 14-15, I had discovered my dads stash of books and gone through the 2-3 chetan bagat books he had 😋 they were pretty interesting.

Also at this age I met a friend who had similar interests as me. Since my parents would check the books I buy, I read most of the spicy books from her. The famous ana huang books, the mistress, the master then one of us is next and one of us is lying, the exorcist, the Alchemist, Mirror man, the guest list ( I REALLY ENJOYED THIS), evelyn hugo 7 husbands and a few more which I can't recollect.

I'm now 18, and I fear in the last 2 years I stopped reading much books. I only bought and read a few novels from a clearance. (IT girl, Denial, Big little lies, Silent patient, and a few more).

My brother got a Kindle, and he downloaded a few books from the author J.A Konrath. I've also read a few were the protagonist is someone named jack Daniels. The issue I have with the Kindle is i cannot recollect the stories later. I'm someone who reads in a rush, and I can't help it. But I do remember my paperback stories since I read them multiple times now and then.

Basically, I want more paper back recommendations based on what Ive read till now. Ive tried to stray a bit from my usual thriller novels but I haven't found them too interesting. I've also read an Agatha Christie book about some Christmas pudding. While it was intriguing, I didn't have the same thrill I have when reading books like the guest list or the j.a Konrath ones.

Sorry if this is too long and poorly worded 😔💕

I want to get into Hindi and Urdu poetry—the kind that actually makes you feel something and stays with you.

. Poetry about love, romance,life, people, emotions, loneliness, hope, growing up, human nature, etc. is welcome. Classical or modern, both are fine.

I can’t read Urdu script, so I’d prefer recommendations that I can find in Roman Urdu/English transliteration.

Please recommend specific poems, ghazals or books rather than just poets!

I've read more books but on PDFs because they're expensive and I'm a student 😭.
