Although a lot
of good things happened in 2015 but the list of books I missed is unfortunately
as long as what I actually read. These are the books that made it to my shelf
but fell short of being read. I really enjoyed reading the Shiva trilogy
by Amish Tripathi. A different take on Indian mythology put forth in a spell
binding and interesting tale of fantasy and action with gods in the lead role.
Another such intriguing
story was penned in Krishna Keys. It was more like Da Vinci Code with Indian
characters and Lord Krishna in place of Jesus. It was a nice one-time read but not
as good as the Shiva Trilogy.
As much as I would have loved reading them but
the following books could not make it out of the shelf.
- India’s Struggle for Independence by Bipan Chandra
- My Gita by Devdutt Pattnaik
- The city of djinns by William Dalrymple
Let’s hope these books can see some fresh air
in 2016.
For all the book lovers I would like to add
that the World Book Fair is going on at the Pragati Maidan in Delhi from 9th
to 17th January. Feel free to dive into the immense world of books
and literature. Read On...
