Just arrived!

I ordered from Flipkart, but is the misaligned cover normal? The word "Suns" is almost spilling out here. Also the binding isn't top-notch, but it's still better than some other books Flipkart has delivered to me (got a Harry Potter book in horrible condition last year, with the cardboard packaging wet from rain and the brown cardboard colours seeping into the pages of the book).

One of my favourite books ever

Ik that it might be more of a guy thing but Nietzsche has literally saved my life. I read thus spoke Zarathustra at the peak of my depression. Days when i felt completely helpless but reading the book made me want to get back stronger, be one with the ubermensch . Before you come to conclusions about my mental health I’m academically gifted it’s just that some of my unresolved traumas took a better of me.

The book might feel a little terse at times as the writing style is really difficult. I’d advice you to supplement the reading with YouTube videos from channels like Unsolicited advice. If you don’t fill the margins of this book then i really don’t think you’ve read a lot about it. It also connects to a theological entity if you are interested in that aspect of literature

"all animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others" Just Read

Just read Orwell's Animal Farm and it was such a solid and tightly packed read. Such a great thought provoking read on how rebellion can turn sour if power isn't kept in check and how manipulation and propaganda works.

Just started reading this book

I started reading this book with recommendations from my colleagues with a warning though, that this book is very emotional to handle..

What do you say guys..

Book recommendation from the lot

I’m home for the summer and recently got into reading. My older brother’s always been a huge bookworm and has built up quite a collection over the years, so I thought I’d finally pick something up from his shelf. What would y’all recommend I start with?

what do you use as your bookmark?

Well, I used to use random objects as my 'bookmark', you know things like a marker, a pencil/pen or maybe sticky note, sometimes even a piece of cloth! XD

but, I've recently started using an actual bookmark and it's a pretty cool one you see ;)

let me see what y'all use as your bookmarks!

Continuation of me reading Arundhati Roy's works

My reading list was in reverse. Having read Mother Mary comes to me, God of small things I think it's appropriate for me to pick up the doctor and the saint. Her prose moves between historical analysis and lyrical outrage.

Trying to get back into reading

Hey so I’ve been reading since I was 13 years old and have read so many books. But now I’m 18(almost 19)and have kinda lost touch with reading over the past 2 years. I’ve barely read around 15 books in total during that time. Now I genuinely wanna get back into reading again.

My favourite genre back then was YA like Aristotle and Dante, Radio Silence, Heartstopper etc. I’ve also liked Murakami books and have read a fair amount of thrillers. (Not a big fan of classics and I don’t like smut at all)

One more thing I forgot to mention is that whenever someone asks me what my favourite genre is I genuinely don’t even know anymore. So I would really appreciate it if you guys could recommend me some books or ways to get back into reading.

It's a very messy post ik but plz help this lil girl out😭
