WELCOME TO MY BLOG

As the name suggests, apart from the usual genres, I shall mostly be talking about various Romance Stories that I have reads throughout my life. And that includes, a ton!!!

My love for book is hereditary. My mother is a voracious reader and my father presented me with a library since my birth. I read “Crime and Punishment” by Fyodor Dostoyevsky when I was only fourteen years old! No wonder, I didn’t understand a lot of it. Nevertheless, it only increased my curiosity about Russian Literature and before long I was devouring Leo Tolstoy and Alexander Pushkin.

My love with Romance novels started when my mentor cum neighbor gave me “The Desert Bride” by Lynne Graham, published by Mills & Boon. Before this, I had kind of got scared reading Devdas at the render age of twelve. I remember crying a lot and got the impression that romance sans tragedy isn’t a genre that exists in the world.

However, the more I read contemporary romance, I felt I needed to re-read the classics to understand what makes them classic! That took a lot of courage for introspection. And man! Was it useful!

What they say true.

The content of the book remains the same, only your realization changes over time and with age!

I am going to review and suggest reads for the lovers of Romance Readers especially. I will also, of course, write my two cents about my impressions of various classics and any random pieces I have loved.

There is also going to shameless self-promotion as I am a budding writer (don’t have the balls to call myself an Author yet).

Without further ado, Welcome once again to my blog!
