I just completed it today. Took me like 11 days or something and loved every part of it. I'm glad that I picked Agatha Christie, I'm planning to get And Then There Were None. Any other suggestions?
Picked this one up on my birthday a few months back and honestly gave up after like 5 pages. Last night, I randomly felt like picking it up again and ended up finishing the whole thing in about an hour.
It’s such a short read, super simple, but somehow hits really hard. It just makes sense. Had I picked it up last year, I would’ve probably filled it with highlights and notes (I’ll probably go through it again someday just to underline all the stuff I skipped yesterday out of laziness - there’s so much quotable content in this book).
Also had this weird realization that there are so many people I know who NEED to read this.Would definitely recommend
Hey folks, a newbie reader here.
I have started reading to reduce the screen time and i am addicted. Low key i am loving it. Only 3 books remaining from right, to read as shown in image.
The thing is, i have read few books in different genres and now more i read more i got curious about many things/genere. Current thought (Economics and History) while writing this post.
My askings are:
- Suggest me something.
- Advice me on anything.
- Your thoughts on curiosity.
Lets have a discussion.
So I have been working for almost 15 years and I finally want to dare myself to move out to the world of business, but of course will not do it in a jiffy. I would like to buy that one book or books to start with and understand and get some guidance. Guidance on money, starting your own thing, understanding where you stand and is it a viable choice.
I am also working with a business coach and was suggested Marshal Goldsmith's What Got You Here Won't Get You There.
Looking for more

Update to this post.
I finished The Way of Kings, roughly 5 days back and instantly jumped to Words of Radiance. My God!
The worldbuilding is insane. Not just big, but layered. Every time I feel like I understand something, there’s another layer underneath it. The lore, the history, the little hints about how everything ties together, it just feels massive in the best way.
But more than anything, Kaladin. I don’t think I’ve ever connected with a character like this before. The way his internal struggles are written, the weight he carries, the small moments of hope he clings to, it all feels painfully real. Watching him rise, fall, and rise again has been one of the most satisfying character journeys I’ve ever read. Easily my favorite character from any book, no contest. I genuinely can’t wait for the day he’s on screen.
I’m about 75% into Words of Radiance right now, and even before hitting the full “Sanderlanche,” this book already feels like it’s constantly paying you back. Compared to The Way of Kings, where everything builds and then explodes at the end, this one keeps delivering throughout, which makes it really hard to put down.
Overall, this has been a straight 10/10 experience so far. I’m completely hooked. I just want more of Kaladin, more answers about the world, more understanding of the magic system, and honestly just more time in this universe.
Can’t wait to finish this and dive even deeper.
Saw this book peeking out of one of the shelves of an used book store in my locality. I had always heard of him, never had the opportunity to explore his works.
So I bought the book, out of sheer curiosity. I have decent exposure to indian philosophy so the genre is not unknown to me. However, this exposure is through video content and not necessarily books.
Any suggestions for my first Philosophy/Krishnamurthy read before I start? Reviews of this book or any of his other books are also welcome.
Out of mainstream culture I randomly ordered and finished Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir in 3 days! I’m also a NON reader so please go ahead and recommend some books to me in the same space! TIA

I read a decent number of books (around 50 a year), and I’ve been thinking about getting into content creation related to books.I wanted to know, would you guys be interested in consuming that kind of content? And if yes, what format would you prefer the most: short-form content like reels, long-form videos, or blogs (maybe in some unique format)?
I’m trying to understand why many people don’t like Freida McFadden. I have only read 'The Tenant', and I actually really enjoyed it. It was also one of my first fiction books, so I’m not sure if it is because of this my opinion is framed.
I’m genuinely curious about the reasons.
