Travel essentials - sling bag + fiction book. Double check ✔️✔️ I've always preferred rail over flights, especially if the destination is an overnight journey by train, it means I get to sleep well and read a book with a view.

Because "Bad Town Kids" is a perfect flight companion. About four childhood friends and how their lives change over a decade. Simple, quick to read and with a sweet nostalgic ending. Get it on your Kindle or on the kindle app for phones. (Age advisory - 16+). India link in bio.

Read 10 fiction books this February, all of them reviewed under 10 minutes in the latest episode of my podcast 'Abstract AF'. Listen in, especially if you are looking for some #bookrecommendations 📚 Link in bio.

Book no. 20 this year - The Vampyr by JW Polidori, a very small book I was confident of finishing in an hour. Could I have been more wrong? Published in 1819, the early 19th century English wasn't easy to read in a single sitting. It's about a young rich dude called Aubrey, who befriends a mysterious guy called Lord Ruthven, only to learn he is a blood-sucker. Too late. It wasn't a fun reading experience, unlike 'Carmilla' another short Vampire book, which came out decades later and had all the elements of a classic gothic story. Except for the fact that Vampyr was path-breaking in the Vampire fiction genre due to the virtue of its early publication date, it's not very impressive.

#Reading with my morning tea. On guard is our four year old cutie. PC - Mom.

Trivia - This book has a pandemic warning in the very first page & two areas in London are quarantined.
