I started the new year by reading this literary masterpiece. From the very first page, I was taken away by the lyrical prose that lasted until the last page. Read my reflections on reading The God of Small Things here.

The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy
In 1997, when The God of Small Things won the Booker Prize, my chest swelled with pride at seeing a fellow Indian win something in English literature.

Sometimes, anxiety gets hold of me as time slips away. It only makes time slip away even faster.

The weather is gloomy and I picked up a book that promises to be creepy! I think Sunday is looking good.

That’s a wrap for 2025!
I started this year with the goal of reading everyday and diversifying my reads. For ‘26, I will continue doing so, and along with it, I have set myself another goal — to write! Looking forward to next year… wish you all a happy new year!

It may be the shortest day of the year, but it's still 24 hours long.

It’s a fantastic book. I am looking forward to reading more from Everett Percival next year.

That’s a great reading philosophy. Sometimes, I don’t even read the blurbs and explore the book one page at a time. But when a book is as popular as James, it’s hard to immunise yourself from the reviews and pre-conceive an opinion.

I’ve heard great things about it, and so far, it’s reading pretty well.
