Episode 5: 

I always wanted to be read by people but I was away from this blogging thing. I had no idea that a word called ‘BLOG’ exists until I entered the world of online writing through a site named BOOKSIE. I saw that some of the writers had links and later on when I visited them, they were blogs. I still had no idea how to use it or make your own blog. I had this thing in my mind.

Then one fine day, a miracle happened and my own book, Turning Point of Life‘ got released and after sometime, I decided to make a blog where I could review books. It was made for official purpose but I started with personal stories just to make a perfect starting. The very first post I wrote was about my success story and introduction. It was published on 2…

Bibliophiles follow a recent trend known as ‘Book Culture’. Well, Book Culture is a trend made by book lovers where they update pictures of books along with some accessories. These accessories can be bookmarks, food, lights, beads, candles, funkoo pops etc.

Bookmarks

Bookmarks were earlier really simple but now there are trendy bookmarks that surely add life to the book. Sometimes, some authors design bookmarks according to their book which has a bookmark stating the cover of the book.

Funkoo Pops

Many of you find this term alieanted and trust me, even I was not familiar to this until I came across @bookwormhelly‘s  pic. She was so excited about this funkoo pops that she took part in many contests on instagram. Funkoo Pop is a toy which is expensive and it can be Hermoine, Harry Potter, etc. They look really cute and I wish to have it someday.

Episode 3- Classics or New Age Romantics? /2017/02/05/episode-3-classics-or-new-age-romantics/ /2017/02/05/episode-3-classics-or-new-age-romantics/#respond Sun, 05 Feb 2017 19:10:07 +0000 http://captivatingmode.wordpress.com/2017/02/05/episode-3-classics-or-new-age-romantics/

My teachers have always advised me to read classics as according to them, if you want to improve or learn something then its the classics that are important. They call New Age Romantics a crap because they think all they have to talk about is, love story, breakups, patch ups, sexual content and many more. Follow This post and stay tuned..:)

I am not challenging my teachers because I respect my teachers a lot but I always have one question that hovers over my mind. It is big confusion time for me as I belong to a group of New Age Romantics while my teachers belong to a time where they have read only classics. So for them this simple, cool hi-fi language is not appropriate. They don’t approve of the slangs used these days. I was talking about the question so I shall come to that.

I feel that what these mind blowing classicists like

Episode2:  Embrace Me

Everyone has some hidden desires which they want to be fulfilled..

Well, Bibliophiles have some unique desires..They want to have a library..

Since I am a Bibliophile, I want a huge library at my house.. My room is an average room and its my heartiest desire to have a magnificent library somewhere.. At times I look at the pictures of the libraries..

I have a huge collection of books but the space is limited so they are either kept in cartons or in my suitcases.. It feels bad when you have to pack your books in your suitcases.. I have 6 suitcases and 6 cartons of books.. I badly want a space for my books where they can feel at home, where they can breathe, where they can be safe.. I guess I am more possessive about my books that my heart sinks when I have to…

Episode1- Marry Me Nolan Parker

If you are reading this confession then you are in love with books. Have you ever fallen for the characters in the novel? If your answer is Yes, then you are reading the right article.

I am in love with characters to such an extend that I can imagine them in my life. I can imagine that ruthless, handsome Heathcliff staring at me. I can feel the care of Augustus Waters. I can inhale the heavenly touch of Nolan Parker. And not to forget my dream teacher, Rowan Masters. I am in love with them all. Well, that is called the novel effect. It is a moment of happy dance for the authors if you remember their characters. The popularity of a character is a biggest achievement for the author.

Books are magical guys. Most of us say that books are our best friends but…
