What are you reading right now?
Jack Reacher's Tripwire. It is the third book in the Jack Reacher series written by Lee Child and follows the protagonist as he gets caught up in a mystery involving the resurfacing of a presumed-dead war veteran. A thriller, the book is highly engaging.
A book that changed your life, and why?
Twinkle Khanna's Pyjamas Are Forgiving. The book is a perfect example of following your instincts every time, all the time. The book takes the reader to an ayurvedic ashram in Kerala, India, where a forty-something Anshu goes in search of freedom from the so-called 'misfortunes' that plague her. It talks about how love is a beautiful thing but not worth it, if it involves losing oneself. It is a book that really connects with its readers.
Name one underrated book, and why you'd recommend it.
Princess: A True Story of Life Behind The Veil. The book is gripping with a powerful indictment of women's lives, which needs to come to the surface for every woman to know that not all that glitters is always gold.
Favourite literary character?
Albus Dumbledore. Never proud or vain, but completely admirable for his wisdom, patience and composed attitude.
Most memorable book quote.
"You're stronger than you think." Robin McKinley's The Hero and the Crown instilled this principle in me that great courage resides in unexpected places. At times, the boldest actions come from people you never expect. No matter how grim something may feel, you just have to press on, as the heroine in the book did.
