Blogchatter Reading Challenge 2021
I have been a bookworm all my life; ever since the time I have a memory of, I have had a book in my hand. Nothing gave me more happiness than curling up with a book and getting lost in the world of fiction; it still does. Be it Enid Blyton or Nancy Drew or Robin Cook or Nora Roberts – I just gobbled up those books and was always hungry for more.
As a child, most of my free time was taken up by reading. Once I started reading, I got so lost in a book that everyday chores were forgotten. What was food and sleep when you could read? I remember finishing Harry Potter and The Order of the Phoenix in 2.5 days flat!
Reading helped me build up my vocabulary, know about the world and its people, live and travel vicariously…
However, adult life and its vagaries sometimes leave little time for such simple pleasures. I keep meaning to read a particular book but somehow cannot seem to make time for it. Also, sadly, the advent of OTT platforms have cut into my reading time.
In a bid to do more reading, I’m participating in the #TBRChallenge by Blogchatter. My goal this year is to read 15 books. I hope I can live up to this target and rekindle my friendship with books.
