My Love for Reading





If you are one of those book lovers who have become book hoarders, and cant get to finish books , dont worry you are not alone. Internet and Social Media has changed our minds forever and more so our reading habbits. ( Learnt from the book - The Shallows – What the Internet Is Doing to Our Brains by Nicholas Carr) . Its ok if you dip in and dip out of books just like we do with social platforms . Dip in , absorb, reflect. Dip Out . Books are not meant to be read from start to finish unless it is Fiction. Gathered amazing insights from voracious reader Naval Ravikant who i follow to learn about BLOCKCHAIN. 





I stumbled upon his podcast and jumped with joy when i heard him talk about books, and his habits of reading. (experienced joy because i overcame guilt of not reading books from start to finish and reading too many books at same time and treating books just like i treat blogs and internet, jump around, skim through ) Kitaabon se jaati raabta tha, bas ab badal gaya hai :-) 

Listen to his PODCAST ON READING , HABITS , HAPPINESS, HONESTY, DECISION MAKING here

The Best Seller She Wrote- Review by Ruchi Bhatia ( @rucsb)


How many times does it happen with you that you read a novel and you think – What the hell, How does the Writer know about my Life ? Well , this happened to me as I was reading “The Best Seller she wrote” by Ravi Subramanian , the best seller himself. This is the first book of Ravi that I read even though I have heard his name before and he has been famous for mysteries, thriller and banking series. ( God is a Gamer, Bankster, The Incredible Banker, What If God is a Banker) I tweeted- The Book is Unputdownable, not because it was mentioned in the book, the book really is engripping read, an engaging story. You wont rest until you are on the last page. And if you readers are lucky , you will get to read the sequel of The Best Seller she wrote soon. But Do remember and Thank me ( rucsb) , who asked him to write the sequel first. Here is my twitter review of the book in the Tweets Format. Tweet Exchanges with Ravi, All you Woman who have hots on Ravi feel jealous :-P
