A Letter to my Bookstagram ~ #TheBookBlogTrain

"And suddenly you know... it's time to start something new and trust the magic of beginnings."


Dear theintrovertbibliophile,

It's been exactly 4 months today since we are together and I'm glad you came into my life like a surprise and the journey has been amazing since then.

You know, I am reading books for a very long time but never had anyone to discuss them, how one feels whenever they finish some book and had no idea what to do next! But then, I stumbled upon some bookish profiles which gave me a boost up of why not to make one separate bookish account..!

After learning a bit about bookstagram, you finally came into existence on Jan 28, 2019 and since then, there was no looking back. We made many bibliophile friends, you introduced me to the new books, authors, various book clubs, buddy reading and yes, giveaways which just made me so happy and exhilarated. In short, you introduced me to a whole new world! 😍😍 

Though sometimes, you give me hard time too like, readers' block, submission of reviews, thinking of captions and what not. I know sometimes I blame you when i compare you to the other bookstagram accounts, I feel like we are lacking in content and reach because at times no one responds but I know, it's not your fault and I'll try my best to improve you. We will achieve success in our own pace.

Apart from this, you made me more confident, you made believe that I can do something on my own without anybody's help. You are my escape from the real world and I owe you everything for this happiest contribution in my life.

From writing captions, to understand the books and bookstagram community, from 0 to almost 300 followers, from one book to so many TBR's, (thanks to all the bibliophiles that recommend books every day) so much we have seen in these 4 months and we still have to go a long way as I'm still in learning phase. We have to ace the art of clicking beautiful photographs of the books we own and those bookish merchandises which makes the photo pretty! We have to learn it sooner. ;)

So, just be there with me and I'll surely do my best. 
A big THANK YOU for investing your patience in me and changing my life in a better way, for pushing me towards positivity and happiness!



Forever yours,

Anoushka :)

Monsoon Cravings ~ Rain Special Blog #BirthdayBlogTrain

Monsoon is one such season which is loved by everyone. Fresh air, breezy days, cloudy skies and muddy aroma. And as the dark clouds roll in, we got some enormous cravings as well. So, lets relish some delicious delicacies from kitchens across the country which are loved by everyone... Kachori-Jalebi Deep-fried, carbs...the kachori and jalebi are guilty on all counts. The kachori filling varies - onion, green peas, a spicy lentil or potato mix are some favourites in North India. And the jalebi - a fried syrupy snack - hot and crispy from kadhai, is a perfect ending to kachori indulgence. Bhutta   Monsoons are incomplete without getting caught in the rain and relishing some charcoal roasted bhutta with a drizzle of salt and lime. The crunch of that will make the perfect and comfortable setting on windy and rainy days. Garam adrak chai Nothing is more typically monsoon than rain soaked hair and kadak ch...

MY TOP 5 FAVOURITE AUTHORS - #TheBookBlogTrain

If you ask the readers about their favourite authors, they will probably will give you a long list of them which they adore and additionally, will pressurize you to read their works! It was difficult for me to select the top 5, as the authors i have read till now are mind blowing and I can't be partial to them. But, I have to do it so here it is.. 5 authors that have proven most influential to my growth in becoming both a better reader and also a better person  : 1. A.A. Milne Trust me, everyone has started reading with the animated characters and so have I. The first book, by which i have started reading was "Winnie the Pooh" ! It was a series of 16 books which I have read in my school library and all those beautiful illustrations, story has my heart and it encouraged me to read more books and eventually, I became an avid reader. 2. Enid Blyton Enid Blyton's books have a refreshing feeling all around. She will engage the readers in such a w...

Review of the Last Book I have read - "Men and Dreams in the Dhauladhar" #TheBookBlogTrain

There are some books that you instantly want to read as soon as you come across them. The reason might be the cover of the book, the title or something else. The same happened to me when I came across this book and I do not know the reason behind it. These sudden urge of reading a book are often risky because you can pick up a wrong book in this and regret it later. However, the adventure and risk are worth trying because you will learn how to choose books for reading. About the book, it's a story of 3 different people who accidentally meet each other in Dhauladhar. It all starts with the commencement of a hydro-electric project in the remote Himalayas. Nanda, Khusru and Rekha are the main characters. They all have a secret past which discreetly, they hide it from everyone. The book has a rich diversity; diversity in emotions and diversity in backgrounds. The story is not based on something stagnant. It is a story of Nanda from Kerala who is currently working in the Hima...
