My seventh year of sharing Bibliofiles - my favourite reads from last year. The reading itch only continues to grow. :)
I read fewer books (58 vs 63 in 2024) but this year’s list has more variety, including fiction.
Short reviews and the long list is on the blog.

A phrase I have found for travel is
അർത്ഥമുണ്ടെങ്കിൽ പോകും. 'Arth/അർത്ഥം' accounts for two mandatory ingredients - money and meaning.

This couplet from Vayalar has been on my mind lately. I fell in love with it the first time I heard it, ages ago. Its essence is what I’ve believed in all my life.

"സ്നേഹിക്കയില്ല ഞാന്‍ നോവുമാത്മാവിനെ സ്നേഹിച്ചിടാത്തൊരു തത്വശാസ്ത്രത്തെയും”

Poorly translated as:

“I will not love a philosophy that does not love the suffering soul”

I called it bae curry and realised that when it comes to humour, even two decades of marriage is not enough to get that acquired taste. 🙈
