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.

Been a super-hectic day, but managed to bring out episode 9 of my podcast on Youtube - TEN LESSONS ONE LEARNS AS A NEW INDIE AUTHOR. Might be some unpopular opinion in there, but listen in, especially if you are an aspiring author. Link in bio. Listen/Subscribe.
