Books are my best friends! They really are. I love reading. I don't know when I developed this hobby. But now, this is just not a hobby. It has become a very essential part of my life. A thought reading makes me as happy as a thought of going to some beach for a vacation. When I was a kid, I was not a serious reader, but with the growing age and maturity, I became a sincere reader. I used to read in Gujarati which is my mother tongue. Then diverted to English.
I belong to a family the importance of art and science are equally high. I have inherited both. I am a science student and currently active in art. The importance of language is understood by us very well. I have learnt to respect language and any form of art and artist. I strongly believe that any artist should be appreciated.

One of our relatives has developed a mini library at her home. When I visited her place, I was astonished. I have a dream which I often share with my husband. And that is to open a library with a coffee shop. Yes, a coffee shop. When I have a mug of strong coffee in one hand and a book in the other hand, my day is made. And that is, probably, my retirement plan! :-) And seeds of that dream have already been sown.

I have a small collection of books and have full plans to grow it as soon as possible. You know, when a Currier boy comes carrying Flipkart's or Amazon's parcel, I jump with happiness like a kid does when he gets his favorite chocolates.

To start writing blogs was my husband's idea. And to be an active blogger was another idea. And that is very important too. I feel good when I do blogging.
I just finished reading Mahashweta by Sudha Murty. This book was in the stores a few days back, and now it is in my library as a read one. Now I am going to start Chetan Bhagat's What Young India Wants. I got these books recently from Crossword. When I was looking for books there, I asked my husband curiously, "When would I see my books here?"

Coming back to the very first line, Books are my best friends. They will always be with you until you leave them. And I am never going to leave them. They are the source of peace in my life.
