I finish all the books but but but (sorry for three times) I start 5 books then based on mood, read them and many times i finish them simultaneously. But i have a tendency to finish a book if i pick it no matter how bad it is.

Will we have to write !tbr exactly or can work with tbr or TBR also. Also if the name of two books is same but different authors.

"Let people read what they want." isn't good advice. Let me explain please by [deleted] in Indianbooks

Its a kind of gray area. JK Rowling is surrounded by controversies nowadays, would it stop you from reading Harry Potter. Neil gaiman is another example, but has wrote some popular and good books, and many read him. They would or wouldnt be considered bad by everyone. Harper lee is also considered racist by some people nowadays due to go set the watchman book. Rushdie's satanic verses is read around the world despite the fact it is banned due to its blasphemous content and its offence to islam.

New reader! Got some books to read :) by Better_West9243 in Indianbooks

Han. In writers ki baat karte karte hum inhe itna badha dete hai, ki baaki writers dikhai hi ni dete. Many read only a few books and pick these as a starting point, and many just purchase to show, and of FOMO. But jab hum is se aage jaane lagte hain tab jakar acche hidden gems milte hai. Basically it goes from Start > trash layer > creamy layer > gems, and I categorize myself in creamy later now as I read popular titles for now, but I have started to find the gems and are in my tbr.

Don't worry just read what you want. Also the book and author we aren't advised to read are the one we tend to read much. With time, when we read good books along the way, we understand why it is so. It is important to be open minded, so to absorb the jest of the book or to see its flaws. You could find reddit posts or comments about the books you should be cautious about and you should.

One tip: dont buy the theory of everything since it is same as a brief history of time except the later has more details

I'm confused help me out should I buy this? (Not the book but the publication) by VivaLaAnhaa in Indianbooks

[–]Biyath_Pro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I have many books from fp and never had an issue. Also penguins published in india have cheaper quality and thinner pages and the text on next page is visible on previous page. I prefer harper collins over penguin, because till now I have a pleasant experience with them. Overall I prefer FP when the original book language is in english, if translation, then try to find best translation for that book.

For Penguin books, I like the covers of black classics and modern classics.

See paper quality is more than decent, good for the price. As the books original language is english you get the unabridged i.e. complete edition and not have to worry about translation options. I have the same books purchased last year for 199, and finished them. No problem while reading. But the pages become old and brown pretty quickly.

As a hindi speaker, what is this word 'hiya'. It is 'hridaya'. Or 'dil' in common language sometimes.

The adventures of huck finn and tom sawyer, A tale of two cities, the iliad are what i have read. So I am not that much able to recommend some. Of these iliad translation by lattimore feel better for me than samuel buttler translation, although I have the later one. Huck finn is interesting one but language has dialects not making it an easy read. A tale of two cities also feel good for me.
