OPENING MEME


1)      What fine part of the world are you reading from today?
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.

2)    Which book in your stack are you most looking forward to?
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?
Chocolate!!! I remember during exams this helped me and my roommate in staying up and pulling all-nighters. And off course Coffee! So Chocolate and coffee!!

4)    Tell us a little something about yourself!
So my name is Rinki Debnath. I am pursuing MBA now. Reading have been such an amazing addiction that I feel blessed to have found the love for reading. Books are literally my best friend. My favorite place in a shopping mall? Bookstore off course!

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,

E for E-books!!

Ever since I have found out that I can read E-books on my phone, I have been literally obsessed about it. The moment I downloaded the books, I started reading them and read 3 books back to back. However since I had to join office, I wasn't left with much time to read, as a result the remaining books are now stacked up inside my cell phone.

I am not sure if it is only me , or there are others, but I feel I can read a lot faster when it is an E-book. Though I have mentioned earlier and will mention it again, I absolutely love paperbacks, but somehow E-books seem to speed up my reading. I haven't bought a Kindle reader for myself mainly because I love paperbacks and I would love to see and feel the books that I have already read. If I buy a Kindle, I will be tempted to buy E-books and my paperback collection will reduce drastically.

Still E-books seem to pace up my reading speed and thus even if its not a Kindle, I will continue reading e-books on my smartphone every now and then.

If you guys think its the same with your reading speed or even if you differ, do let me know by posting a comment down below.
