11 QUESTIONS FROM SAVANNAH
What’s the best book you’ve read so far this year?
A Curse so Dark and Lonely is probably the best book I’ve read so far.
Which book that you already own are you most looking forward to reading?
I’m looking forward to reading The Winter of the Witch by Katherine Arden.
Which upcoming release are you most excited about?
The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern. I’m excited not only because I loved The Night Circus but I loved the synopsis of The Starless Sea as well.
What’s your favorite TV show right now?
Two of my favorite TV shows just ended and they were Shadowhunters and Game of Thrones.
What’s the last movie you watched and how was it?
The last movie I watched was Avengers Endgame and it was great. I was an emotional mess after watching it..so, yeah..it was great!
Are there any tropes that you just can’t resist?
Enemies to lovers, I think. I don’t like bullies who “redeem” themselves and then the victim and the bully become lovers. I have read a couple of books way back in high school and it unnerved me to say the least.
If you could travel anywhere right now, where would you go?
Scotland first and then all of Europe. I always had wanderlust but my parents never travelled much if it were not for family or office arranged vacations.
What’s your favorite dessert?
I’m a huge chocolate lover so chocolate icecreams, choco lava cake…
Do you have any pets? If so, please feel free to share pictures!
No, I don’t 😦
What kind of job could you never do?
Umm, anything that deals with sketching. I’m decent with taking photos but that is how far my creativity goes.
Coffee or tea, and how do you take it?
Coffee always. I take it with milk and sugar.

Thanks for the tag, Shalini 😊 Loved your answers. I want to visit Scotland too and yes whole Europe. And I wish I was a reader from my childhood too like everyone else 🙈 But you know most of our Indian families.. there is no one in my family who reads so I was never encouraged to read.

Thank you, Simant and YES to traveling to Scotland and all of Europe! It’s okay and I understand..I remember my father being a reader and my maternal grandfather so I will always be thankful to them and my uncle for encouraging my love of reading.
