After writing the first and last post on this blog, I promptly disappeared from this space. I couldn’t read too many books by Indian authors. I did read a few – an Assamese novel by Indira Goswami,  a Kannada novel by U R Ananthamurthy and a few Malayalam novels. I read a whopping 92 books in 2019. I added a lot of international authors to my reading list, discovered new thrillers and read a lot books I would never have picked at a bookstore.

In the coming weeks, I will try to write based on the following:

• Books of Kerala
• Books of India
• Books of the world
• Books that shook me
• Best of 2019
