Today: "Language is more important to me than the plot." A year ago or so: "I focus more on the plot while reviewing than on the language." Please take us through this journey.
I am reading Sea of Poppies by Amitav Ghosh. The literature is just too good. Can you kindly make a video on like 10 books that have touched you deeply, both from a language and plot point of view.
You must a give a try to these books as well. 1.The palace of illusion 2.Harappa -The curse of blood river 3.The immortal of Meluha 4.Ram Scion of Ikshvaku 5. Sita the warrior of Mithila
Don't know why but I can feel particles of this channel's sweetness runs here and there in my blood. The quality of book-selection process, short and simple way of describing them, vlogging in Indian way all together make a bookish perfume any bibliophile can't refuse to and be addicted to. Best wishes..💐
Hey there....even I feel the same when I read books written by Ruskin Bond... They are just so simply beautiful and satisfying in a way...he is the best Indian authors I have ever read books of..thanks for mentioning him
Hey thanks🙌i was searching for the name(Ruskin Bond-slipped out of my head)...i was finding it in utube videos but look, where i got it from___hahaha from ur comment😄
Hey Helly ... There is a lesson in English in Telangana state board(SCERT) about Satyajit Ray in class 10" Rendezvous with Ray " you rock as usual..😄😄😘😘
Five books that I wrote recently are ' The Story of An Indian Girl ', ' Shaping the needs ', ' How I became President of India ', ' Strange Ghost Story ', ' The Strange Psychiatric Problems ' , and more books I will be writing in future too ... Also I wrote book recently ' Legal justice through rain, storm ---- strange ' .... I think, generally from school days we learn how to write essays, stories so, enjoy writing and that makes writing interesting ....
How do you write a book? I love to write but how to write like as author I don't know. How to write in story form. How to put creativity in writing and some content writing. Can you please help me
Hii Helly dii.I am truly very much thankful to you for your previous video.You told about the Coursera app and it's so useful to me as a student. I love watching all your videos, as I'm a true " literature lover" Keep posting!
There is a Indian author, name - Ravi Subrahmanyan Book name- The bestseller she wrote. The only book which I finished in 6 hour of continue reading for two days. If anyone interested then read this book
This video was really helpful ,loved it 💜. Can you do a video on books that are women centric like women who changed history, women empowerment and women's sexuality ?
Hey Helly! I I am also a fan of Ruskin Bond and his writings style I met him in Indore literature fest last year.... and I am really in love with his writing styles and the short stories that he wrote.... But before my meeting with him I was not really into Reading but since then I have read 22 books....if you want to meet Ruskin Bond then he will be at Indore literature fest on 23rd December....and also tell me that have you read the Rusty series by Ruskin Bond??
Thanks for this video. I just finished the great Gatsby book that u recommended in ur video 'books under 100 rs'. One thing i would like to tell is that i really want to read new books & i have read a lot novels( all chetan bhagat novels , ravinder singh & durjoy datta's novel). But Gatsby was hard to read for me. So can u plz make a video on how to finish books easily. Or make a video on some most interesting books which are easy read. Thanks.
You may want to have a look at John Green's lecture on The Great Gatsby, on his TH-cam Channel. It provides comprehensive insights into the socio-literary significance of the work.
Hello, as someone that loves reading classics and getting a feel of the social dynamics of the time, I really would love some recommendations of Indian classics (that aren't extremely problematic lol)
I guess most books have one of these. Introduction is more like you're introducing the story to the reader by letting them know about the characters and all. But, often readers find introductions too boring, so nowadays most of the books don't have introduction. Prologue is also kind of like that but here the characters are introduced along with the story. I mean, in the prologue the writer writes about the most interesting part of the story so that the readers know what to expect along with introducing the characters and plot. The conclusion is that both of them can't exist at the same time. You can either have an introduction or a prologue
Hello, I try to read more than just western classics and I wonder, if you have recommendations for someone who is more into classics. Some Indian classics, so to speak. :) Also, this video was really helpful.
Hi Helly, Can you please describe books like Jasmine Days, Ghachar ghochar since we are new to these genres and authors. It would be a great help, thanx..
Hello helly, I am your new subscriber and I really love your hunger of reading books. I am a physics honours student from west Bengal. So please recommend me some books to start reading of science fiction or non fiction books .
Some staple works of non-fiction include Carl Sagan's Cosmos, Feynman's lectures, Stephen Hawking's works ( A brief history of time, God created the integers etc.)
Tomorrow I'm going to pic a book from my library and my college library is not so big that's why I'm making a list of books so that I take good book and not luck by chance so I have so many of your videos to go through 😅☺
Helly, How many page do you read in an hour. Please make a video how anyone can fasten their reading speed. For me it took around 15 days to ended up a novel having 275 pages.
I'd recommend to first avoid distractions. The most popular ones are phones, movies, tv shows etc. Once you are not distracted you will find it easier to read. Also, if you feel lazy after reading just one or two chapters, force yourself to sit straight. This often increases concentration. Also, maybe select books that really interest you and have only around 200-300 pages as long books might be difficult to read. Again, select books that are easier to read and don't go for classics like "Tale of Two Cities" as usually, it's language is difficult to process and takes longer to read. Make reading a habit. Read at least two chapters daily. Once it becomes a habit you can go for longer books or old classics. If you think this is advice from a stranger, let me tell you that I'm an avid reader. Just recently I read a book of more than 300 pages in just one day and I'm sure these things will help you!
@@snehapradhan5591 Nicely explained. Thanks for guiding me such a good way, i really appreciate your time and writing skill. I want to become like you one day. 👍👍👍
@@gauravbatra999 You're welcome! Also, thanks for appreciating my writing skills. Extensive reading really helped me to get a good understanding of English.
