~ Home Quarantine Be Like... ~
.
🌴
Hey you guys! Thank you so much for all the DMs asking about my well-being! You guys are the sweetest!😙
.
🌴
I'm doing okay. I was cranky and jetlagged(if you can call that, though not different timezones, different climate and world altogether!)yesterday but I had a good night's sleep and things are better. I'll let you know about how I traveled, the procedures and all things related, pretty soon.
.
🌴
As you know, my Pawdad is posted to a forward location and things aren't looking bright and sunshiny for us. I cannot disclose where he is posted though, since you know...social media, fauj etc etc.
.
🌴
So, I'm now at Mamma's home in Kottayam, Kerala and sadly, I could meet only Mamma's dad because the whole family is shifted to our relatives' who are right next door. I was actually conversing with Ma's dad when she clicked this pic. More details on everything later.
.
🌴
I just wanted to quickly say that I'm so grateful to be loved by you. Your prayers and well wishes has made my day and it keeps me going.
.
🌴
Much puchchiess, tailwags and woofs,
Your bibliophile doggo,
Muffy🐶
.
🌴
P.S. It's raining cats and dogs here. And I'm loving it. Ma hasn't allowed me to truly "enjoy" the rains, you know my "happy feet" dance moves. That's just because she can't chase and run around me as she is in home quarantine.
.
🌴
So, tata.
Until next time!

#qotd Your favorite read of the month
.
💛
I could read only three books this month and my excuse is packing our entire home and moving! But the three books I read were absolutely brilliant and I'm so glad I picked these up.
.
💛
You already know I loved The Henna Wars. I had read If I Was Your Girl first and that was absolutely delightful as well. The latest read was THUG, and Oh my God! If you haven't read it yet, you really should pick it up.
.
💛
A great book that does justice to #BlackLivesMatter the story truly touches your soul. I can't wait to pick up Angie Thomas's next.
.
💛
Have you read THUG? I'd love to know your views on the book.

~ Goodbye home of three amazing years ~

🏔
We are going to miss this beautiful home and I'm sure you had loved seeing Muffy running around this lawn filled with flowers all day everyday.
.
🏡
While Muffy and I aren't joining the soldier right away because he is posted at a forward location, we hope to make it soon.
.
🏔
Till then, continue to shower your love on us!
.
Have us in your prayers as we start our journey from here with a lot of apprehension, thanks to the pandemic.

Lots of love,
Shalini & Family.

#qotd Your favorite contemporary author?
.
.
For me it is difficult to choose just one mainly because I loved many contemporary reads in the recent past.
.
Few of my absolute favorites include Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine, Wonder, The Hate U Give, The Henna Wars, If I was Your Girl, To All the Boys I've Loved Before, and The Poet X.
.
.
I'd love to have some recommendations. So, shoot?😃

#qotd Tell me your favorite movie adaptation that turned out to be better than the book!
.
🎬
I have always had a love-hate relationship with books and its movie adaptations. In fact, other than a handful of movies like Harry Potter, I have never found an adaptation doing justice to the books. Some notable mentions of movie adaptation which did justice to books are Harry Potter, The Perks of Being a Wallflower and P.S. I love you.
.
🎬
But there is one movie which is waaaaaaaaaay better than its book and that is The Devil Wears Prada. The book wasjust meh and Meryl Streep took her character to the next level in the movie. She was flawless and it is still one of my favorite movies which I turn to during those dull days.

#qotd Overhyped book according to you!
.
📘
I know that this is going to make me an unliked bookstagrammer, but at the cost of getting trolled or shamed, here's what I think of 'The Fault in Our Stars'.
.
📘
Believe me when I say I'm a sucker for YA books. But I hated this one with all my being.
.
📘
I have heard rave reviews about TFIOS and yet I didn't pick it up until last year. It was lying in my bookshelf for long and I kinda had high expectations. .
📘
But it proved that it is definitely not a 'A walk to remember' or 'Love story'.
.
📘
Or maybe, just maybe, I have seen cancer upfront and close and I felt that the book was making a mockery out of the dreadful disease. So, though the writing was amazing, for me, the book was just Meh 🙄

#qotd Your favorite re-read?

📖
I should probably say Harry Potter but I'm not going to say that now. Nope. .
📖
Anyway, ever since I read Matilda last year, I kinda find myself searching for the book on the shelf again whenever I needed a pick me up. Matilda is love! I've no idea why I didn't read it at the right age, if ever there is one.
.
📖
I also loved the movie adaptation! Have you read Matilda or watched the movie?

Dad decided to take me for a car drive today. He said we'll be leaving this beautiful quaint lil' town soon and that I should remember all these mesmerizing places forever. This is where I joined my loving pawrents and I know, just like me, they will cherish the memories always. .
🏔
Last day my friend @amitgenre told me that he'll miss seeing me in these gorgeous settings where the mountains are a backdrop and the lawn is my second home. Alas! Such is life! But I hope you'd love my new adventures because I'm finally going to meet my brothers! Details soon.
.
🏔
P.S. Tell Dad that Pithoragarwale (especially doggos) are never going to miss me. Because I've literally peed and "marked" my territory at every lil' bush in the region!😁

How I wish I had a proper "library" pic! As you know, all my books and funkos are packed in boxes and we are ready to move. But if you are interested, check out my IGTV where I've given a small book room tour from before!

#qotd Kindle or Paperbacks?
.
📖
That age-old question, right? There was a time I couldn't imagine reading on anything but paperbacks. But Kindle changed my life for good. The ease of use, especially at night when the man isn't disturbed while snoring away to glory is one of the main reasons why I love my Kindle. Not to mention it acts as a savior during travel and long trips.
.
📖
However, I love paperbacks and hardcovers equally. .
So, whatever it is, I am a proud book hoarder!
