I am from India, residing in Kolkata aka City of Joy!! Amazing place to be in. all you guys should pay a visit to this beautiful city once in your lifetime.

My most anticipated book for this read-a-thon is The girl who played with fire by Larsson and if that massive book I am able to conquer then I want to read Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn.

3)    Which snack are you most looking forward to?

5)     If you participated in the last read-a-thon, what’s one thing you’ll do different today? If this is your first read-a-thon, what are you most looking forward to?
This is my very first read-a-thon. I am excited like crazy!! I never have read over 300 pages in a day, so this read-a-thon I have set my goal for a chunky book with over 500 pages to read. So totally pumped to do this challenge!
Let’s do it!

With Love,

B For Books!!

Now, wasn't that just too predictable?! Yes, I guessed so! But I cannot really help it, for if I choose any other topic, it will be unfair to "Books".

I have always heard people talk about books, and how they have been passionate about reading ever since they could probably read! When I was a child, I never understood how people could read so much.
Now, when the bee has finally stung me, I regret those days, those years that are gone by, when I did not read and wasted time sitting in front of the idiot box watching things which now seem so useless. Had I started back in those days, I could have completed reading so many books, which I am dying to complete now.
But as they say- Better late than Never. I have now felt the love for reading, felt the joy of finishing one book only to jump at the next book waiting on the bookshelf and wish to continue loving books in this manner.

There is so much that a book can offer. When you read and feel the words , you are transported to a different place, a place created by the author. In that reading time, you forget about your worldly worries. The characters get under your skin and you breathe with them, live with them, as long as the story continues, you stay with them, experiencing all the emotions that they feel.
Nothing in the world can create such an impact. And thus it is rightly said
-A book is proof that humans are capable of working magic.
With every book that I finish, I feel a strange satisfaction, and a stronge urge to pick up another book. I don't know if its the same for all you readers out there, but I think it is. However, I wish to know from you guys if you feel the same way as I do. Please feel free to leave a comment down below with your views and opinion.
