Books in 2018

Hello everyone and holiday greetings to all of you! It's that time of the year where I share my list of books read, to be joyous and to be disappointed, sadly. Earlier I'd listed books in the year of  2017 . This year hasn't been a remarkable one with respect to novel reading. Following are the books I read in 2018: Blade Still Alice The girl who played with fire The girl who kicked the hornet's nest Disobedience  Boardwalk Empire - the birth, high times and corruption of Atlantic city The Girl on the train I'm of-course disappointed with the number of books read this year and with the content I'd read in these books. I didn't really enjoy these books save one or two. I wish to improve on both these in the upcoming year. See ya!

Standing in snow

It was snowing in morning. Light snow flakes, ones hampering your visibility, intermittently falling on eyelashes, melting on eye-glasses. The chills weren't there, it was cold. Such mornings make my knees go weak. It's not the work, or routine, it's the moment I want to sit in my room, gaze outside, see the town get coated in white dust. I get overwhelmed by these moments. Rush to work, lines on the forehead, thoughts in the subconscious mind fade away. It was similar to stomping my heart for something I cared less. I breathed in the cold air, stood in the snow at station close to office, smiled and braced self for the day ahead.
