Books I read in March & April 2023

Due to an unavoidable personal situation, I didn’t read anything for the first 2 weeks of March. After that, craving something familiar, I started reading Khushwant Singh, although I had read all his novels already many years ago.

It was nice reading those familiar novels, once more. I really enjoy Khushwant’s writing style.

After Khushwant, I went back to Jhumpa Lahiri. Whereabouts: A Novel was a collection of incoherent notes from the author. Entertaining, but nothing special.

After that, Amazon recommended me Satyajit Ray. I read his “Another Dozen Stories” which was full of short stories. Some of the stories were feel good, whereas others were paranormal or bordering paranormal. Overall, I found the stories quite entertaining.

Knowing that I didn’t do much reading the last 2 months, I will try to do better going forward.

I am thinking of revisiting Arthur C Clarke next.
