The rains are all set to make a comeback, the blistering heat is taking a step back and it\u2019s the perfect time to curl up and start a novel (or two!). Delve and dive, as you fix up a diet of classics, thrillers or any of your favourites. It\u2019s time to draw in the heady perfume of the musty smell of old books, feel the imprint of the timeless magic of thoughts of decades gone past, slip effortlessly into a waltz in 18th century Versailles, or make an escape from bandits in a bloody battle, partake in an adventure a la carte, dance to the celebration of lives, incidents and iridescent worlds \u2013 all of this, simply curled up in your favourite corner of the house, with a hot cuppa coffee by your side.<\/p>\n

Some novels which you simply can\u2019t not read!<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. To kill a mockingbird<\/strong>
    \nThe front runner in classic American Literature,\u00a0Harper’s Lee’s<\/a>\u00a0iconic novel is unusual for its variance in the warmth of its tone besieged as it is, intermittently by subtle humour and the serious theme of rape and racial inequality that it deals with. Exploring contrasting emotions, in its very basic nascent stages, this makes for one compelling read, any day!<\/li>\n
  2. Wuthering Heights<\/strong>
    \nSimply put, classics like these are a privilege to read! Capturing the passionate love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, the novel explores the chemistry between the two, right from when Heathcliff leaves, assuming his love for Catherine wasn\u2019t returned, to his coming back as an extremely wealthy man who\u2019s determined to exact revenge for the previous miseries eked out to him.
    \nThe vivid, detailed descriptions of the dreary moorland, combined as they are with the passionately delivered replies are a contrast which remains etched in the mind of the reader, even after one has put down the book.<\/li>\n
  3. Game of Thrones (A song of ice and fire):<\/strong>
    \nThe\u00a0    tv series<\/a>\u00a0of the same has taken social media by storm, with its unbelievable plot twists and turns and the mind boggles just imagining what a crazy read the book would be! Follow the struggle for the Iron throne across all realms which span struggles with the white walkers, the mysteries across the Night\u2019s watch, to family betrayals, duels, as the mad lust for revenge has the readers speculating like wildfire of the next possible move! Throw in the delectable rugged looks of the men, their fierce battle gear and the medieval gowns and bam! Congratulations! You just got readers cum die-hard fans who can\u2019t wait to get their hands on this epic book!<\/li>\n
  4. The Bell Jar<\/strong>
    \nSlyvia Plath\u2019s sole work as a novelist, often regarded as a roman-\u00e0-clef, as the protagonist\u2019s descent into insanity mirrors Plath\u2019s own is a shockingly realistic novel, which captures the bright, beautiful, and successful Esther Greenwood, slow spiral into madness. No reader can remain an aloof third person while reading Plath\u2019s masterpiece; You find yourself on the very periphery, as you discern between fact and fiction at Plath\u2019s brilliant reading of the human psyche which leaves you speechless.<\/li>\n
  5. Those Pricey Thakur Girls<\/strong>
    \nCatch    \u00a0Anuja Chauhan<\/a>\u00a0at her wittiest best, as she animatedly tells a story weaving around the five daughters of Justice Laxmi Narayan Thakur and his wife Mamta, all blessed with their own distinct (sometimes clashing) persona, their intermixed stories, and especially that of the quietly fiery Debbie, stolen under our very nose by the dashing Dylan Singh Shekhawat.<\/li>\n
  6. The Sialkot Saga<\/strong>
    \n\u201cSo, can it be that a man is both, sinner and saint, victor and victim, black and white?\u201d<\/i>\u00a0The newly released novel by\u00a0    Ashwin Sanghi<\/a>\u00a0promises to be a toe-curling read as the master storyteller weaves a yarn of intrigues, fantasy and fiction, running on the threads of past and present, as it traces the trajectories of two businessmen, leading to an ending none could have guessed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
