The Great Book Haul
You know what is better
than being at the Book Fair? Writing a blog about it!
The ultimate feeling of
being surrounded by so many books is totally whimsical. It is a like a big
slice of heaven. For me World Book Fair 2015 was the highlight of February, the
month of love. I adopted 14 babies and they are now safely tucked on my
bookshelf.
Jodi Picoult
Murakami
Agatha Christie
Cecelia Ahern
Sophie Kinsella
E. Lockhart
Lauren Weisberger

Jane Green
The sheer excitement of
seeing a book that you always wanted to read, or the one that you have already
read and secretly say a ‘Hi’ to, is something that you must experience.
Being at the book fair
is synonymous with overflow of emotions. Excitement or rather uncontrolled excitement
on seeing books, books and more books; sorrow – because you want to read them
all, but as they say ‘So many books! So little time’.
Finding fellow book
junkies overwhelms you with joy and fervor. The boy in the black hoodie who
bought 7 books and 2 mugs at the Penguin stall today, and who I helped holding
his books – if you are reading this, a big Hi! with a bigger and brighter
blush!
I am more than happy to
find some cuties that were on my ‘to-read’ list since ages and also other
cuties that came like a pleasant surprise.
One hall to another – halt
– stall 2 – halt – back to previous hall – coffee break – stall 23 – book admiration
break!
Also a big thank you to
‘bae’ for an almost perfect date and holding, yes just holding the books. If only
you could sponsor at least 1 of them. Well, remember it for next time.
Half of 2015 looks
sorted, blissful and rocking with my new found treasure.
Admiration and
impatience galore :)
Next time 5 sponsored ;) :)
