Its time for a post by our special guest! Here's what she has to say:

Books always stay with us. They are our best and constant companions. They own the power to transport us to a world we always dream of. Books can bring to life characters we imagine. They provide us either a real face of the world or an alternative world to which we can escape to.

During lockdown, books are one of the solutions to keep ourselves busy and indulge in some logical pursuits. There are plenty of books we read and plenty are waiting to be read. We either pick up a book on someone’s suggestion or because we love the cover of it or the title. Everyone has different perspectives while choosing a book. But we found that there are some books which one must read once in their life. Today I will be sharing that list:

1. The Fountainhead by Ayn Rand

Fountainhead describes the philosophy of Ayn Rand. Ayn Rand has beautifully penned down this book. It is one of the classics. I will recommend you all to read it at least once.  You will enjoy it. It’s a lengthy book still a good read.

2. Power of subconscious mind by Dr Joseph Murphy

It is one of the bestsellers. A non-fiction totally helps you how to control your mind, how to overcome the negative thoughts. It is one of my favorite books. It helped me in improving some of my habits. So I suggest you all to give it a read.

3. Gone with the wind by Margaret Mitchell

This is another classic. It is so gripping with every passing chapter that you’ll want to know what will happen next and read more! The title of the book is also apt.

4. Shoot. Dive. Fly by Rachna Bisht Rawat

It is for defence aspirants. Even the blurb explains who desire a career in defence and defence does not mean only wars. It has other exciting and adventurous posts.

5. Small acts of freedom by Gurmehar Kaur

It is an autobiography of a Kargil martyr’s daughter. She has explained her pain, how her mother raised her and her sister up. This is truly a heart-touching read. Go give this book a look.

These are my suggestions, hope you will like it. Stay home and stay safe.
