For avid readers and books they are reading. An easy way to connect. An added incentive is the constructive hobby that will help during and after B-School admissions.
Jst started " the last lecture " ..
A result of absolute joblessness while waiting for the Gods to shine upon us. 😛
I think this group can serve 2 purposes.
1. Sharing your currently reading shelf, so that others can get good suggestions.
2. Writing short reviews about just read books, to give all an idea of whether they want to embark on that read or not.
Any other suggestions?

Reading "Me Before you" by jojo moyes
Not the kind of book you will read to increase your knowledge but it's a really emotional book which will make you feel emotions that you may have never felt.
Think things you never thought.And will basically make you cry your heart out.

Not an avid reader but would definitely like to develop a reading habit. Any tips from you guys on how to get started. I know that I should just start reading but would like to know how to develop that essence.
Btw, has anyone seen the cover of Scion of Ikshvaku? It is the new novel by Amish Tripathi. Revolves around the Ramayan. Looks promising. The cover certainly is 😁
