7 Books You Can Read in One Day for a Readathon

Posted June 5, 2018 by @amanhimself in Book List, Books / 5 Comments

Who does not like to read a book in one sitting? In this post, I am going to present you with a list of books that can be used for a calm weekend after a tiring week, while traveling or even Readathons! Readers who think are falling behind in their Goodreads Yearly Challenge or want to jumpstart can also use books mentioned in the list below. I love shorter books. Sometimes it is better to tell a story in less amount of words and leave the rest for the reader to figure out. Novellas are still written by modern-day writers and sold by publishers. In the list below, I will try to diversify as much as I can. Let us […]

If  you enjoyed and lol’ed (in some places) while reading Andy Weir‘s (see Andy Weir’s interview) The Martian (read book review here), the story of an astronaut Mark Watney, who struggles to survive, alone on the red planet. Maybe, you’d watched the movie directed by Ridley Scott, in which Matt Damon portray’s Mark Watney. Maybe, you just more of the red planet. Whichever the case is, you’d want to take a look at these books.

What to Read in 2018? A List of books worth your time

What to Read in 2018? A List of books worth your time

Posted December 17, 2017 by @amanhimself in Book List, Books / 20 Comments

In 2017, I started my voracious reading journey with the word “productivity” in mind. In my workflow, I wanted to be as productive as I could but later realise that it has its limitations. First limitation that I come across as I continued on my path as I found that there is a vast field and there are sub-niches that fall under that word.

Posted October 21, 2017 by @amanhimself in Book List, Book Reviews, Books / 0 Comments

October is here and only few weeks are left to complete or compete anymore in your reading challenges. By the way I did complete my Goodreads challenge for 2017 of reading 200 books. (More on this later.) I have managed to gather around a list of books that are available this month for Science Fiction and Fantasy fans. The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2017 by J. J. Adams and Charles Yu | 384 pages Science fiction and fantasy can encompass so much, from far-future deep-space sagas to quiet contemporary tales to unreal kingdoms and beasts.

Books To Read From 90s Part II

Books To Read From 90s Part II

Posted August 5, 2017 by @amanhimself in Book List, Books / 0 Comments

In the first part of this list series, I did include most of the titles that I have already read. In this list too, I am prohibiting common, well known books like Harry Potters, A Song of Ice and Fire, Fight Club. These are the books that readers are highly familiar with and there is high chance that  most of us have seen the movies/tv-series and read the books. This list is also not specific to any genre.
