• Jamie Vardy: From Nowhere, my story •
I started watching football a while back now and I think anyone who watches football, especially the English Premier League knows how excellent Jamie Vardy is, no matter which club you support there are just some remarkable players who we are always in awe of and for me it has to be Jamie Vardy. Even more so now that I’ve read his autobiography. A lot of people do find autobiographies/biographies boring but I’m pretty sure when it’s someone’s we truly adore it almost always turns out to be an incredible read. Jamie Vardy does have a very inspirational story to tell, from playing pub football, earning £30 a week at Stocksbridge Park Steels while working in a factory to winning the Premier League with Leicester City, Jamie Vardy has accomplished so much and with so much determination and hard work. The book is a very humble and candid story of his growth and about his support system through his journey of him becoming the man he is today. Jamie Vardy really from nowhere, achieved everything. I'm sure if I weren’t the huge Spurs fan I am I would have surely been tempted by Jamie Vardy to join  Leicester City. Not just football fans but I would unquestionably recommend this to any sports fan, a very fascinating and uplifting read.

JK Rowling once said," If you don't like to read, you haven't found the right book." Divinity is one of the few books which can make a person fall in love with reading.

Seldom do I find myself relating to a character or getting attached to a fictional character as I did with Natasha. The 17 year old who arrived from Jamaica ten years ago, and tonight she might leave the USA forever. Daniel, the male protagonist who believes in love and poetry but is being pushed by his parents for something he doesn't aspire to become meets Natasha who believes in science and facts who have a total of twelve hours to meet , get to know each and maybe fall in love, beyond their differences. Natasha who refuses to believe in the concept of love and destiny changes when a part of her wants to believe in them as she gets to know Daniel. Whereas Daniel who believed in love, starts believing that none of it exists and that it's all just merely a game of chemicals .The spark between them is undeniable which makes it so much more fascinating. The book is different in every possible way, be it the style of writing, the construction of the book, the fact that we ha...

Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts.

Shantaram is one of the books which was on my bookshelf which has been there for as long as I can remember and I always wondered just by looking at the size of it as it's a 933 page long read , how one could write such a long book , I recently read it and I understood that only a man with such a wide variety of experiences in his life could write it . The book is about an Australian convict and heroin addict who escapes from Pentridge Prison and flees to India who then resides in a slum hoping he wouldn't be noticed which later turns into a failure as he is soon recognized for his medical talents and approached by the local mafia. It's a book full of emotions, colors,   grief of loss , cruelty and love . The main character , Lin describes India so specifically that though being an Indian   , I had the opportunity to discover India in a completely different way. The author draws the readers into a stuffy atmosphere in Mumbai and loses in it. The book does not skip penur...
