Pages that inspired me this year

Above are the books I read this year. I didn’t have any specific number of books in mind that I wanted to read. There are some unlisted books that I struggled through and ended up returning to the library, even though I hate that unfinished feeling. Most of these books I found intensely emotional, with Mindy Kaling being my comic relief. I didn’t pressure myself to zoom through books. Half the Sky which made me cry so much it took me nearly three months to finish.

To next year — with more good reads surrounded by tea — that result in company and good conversation.

XOXO with Shanti,

Mel
