You beautifully express your true emotions about the books and that makes your recommendations more lively and interesting. Great video Saumya
Thank you so much for this comment :)
I'm from Mangalore, Karnataka. It's raining here for almost 2 months. Thank you so much for this video. I was looking for short storybooks. I'm not read any of these books and I hope, it will be a great read.
Thank you so much...😊😊
Monsoon is on full swing there then :)
Thanks for watching :)
@@SaumyasBookstation Yes. Di..😊.
It is a wonderful coincidence! I finished reading a story boodhi kaki by Munsi Premchand 20 minutes ago. I really can't explain in words what impact it left on me .
This book has Boodhi Kaaki too and that story broke my heart :(
I also read it but in hindi
From Doha, here it’s summer which is very horrible going up to 52 degrees 😫 adding on that up to 70% humidity
You’re the best. Was waiting for this list. 💃
Humidity makes everything worse. :/
Thank you so much :)
Brrruuuuuh how are ya'll alive in 52 degrees??? Is it celsius or fahrenheit??
@@HalfBloodOtter

I am from Delhi... But monsoon rains haven't arrived in this part... 😢 Humidity is on its highest...
Thank u for the recommendations .. I am a big fan of short stories. They are like reading a new book every time you read a new story....😊😊
Humidity is surely there. I agree :(
Short stories are amazing, I agree :)
Weather is terrific but water logging with traffic is a dampener. Definitely got respite from the heat. I am reading God of Small Things. Love you for your hard work. Great content!
Thank you so much :)
Short stories specially by premchand were how I started reading. Kabuliwala story was in my school book and I cried so much. Love your recommendations. Do read feluda stories by satyajit ray if you haven't already.
His stories are just wonderful. Thank you and I plan to read it :)
Am currently in Bhubaneswar , and we are having rain lots of it .. I have read 3 books that are mentioned, others just got added in the cart.
That's wonderful :)

I’m from Calgary Canada. Very cold here. Getting ready for snow.
I am from Kolkata. Even here the weather was very hot and humid. It was getting unbearable. But thankfully, Monsoon arrived here in some parts of the city on the 25th of July.
The humidity tends to go away atleast while it rains.
@@SaumyasBookstation Yes

Most best authors were from Bengal!
Please try reading Bengali literature.
One of them is Manik Bandopadhyay, a Bengali Kafka.
Thanks for sharing. Will try :)
What if i my English is not good but i want to read books ..from which book should i start??
I am not Soumya but hope my list helps you. Start with Enid Blyton. Your vocabulary is sure to be enhanced. Then move on to Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, Malguri days. Then read Ruskin Bond and Agatha Christie. You may also try Sudha Murty. Her work is not as easily readable as R K Narayan but still a good place to start.
You can read any of the books I have recommended in my 'Books for beginners' video as they are easy reads and can help you get used to the language.

@@SaumyasBookstation thank you !
Thanks for new book list
Thanks for watching :)

Nice review 👍 Saumya
Thank you :)
Why don't you read Shakespeare book
I don't have one.
Is it good for beginners
One of my top 10 short stories of all- time written in the 1970s by Grace Paley and titled “ Wants”
Worth reading and analyzing.
In my opinion, a master class masterpiece. Hope you or your readership will read and study.

Grace Paley
“ Wants”
( from her 1974 short story collection “ Enormous Changes At The Last Minute”
Nominated for the National Book Award For Fiction).
“Wants”
I saw my ex-husband in the street. I was sitting on the steps of the new library.
Hello, my life, I said. We had once been married for twenty-seven years, so I felt justified.
He said, What? What life? No life of mine.
I said, O.K. I don't argue when there's real disagreement. I got up and went into the library to see how much I owed them.
The librarian said $32 even and you've owed it for eighteen years. I didn't deny anything. Because I don't understand how time passes. I have had those books. I have often thought of them. The library is only two blocks away.
My ex-husband followed me to the Books Returned desk. He interrupted the librarian, who had more to tell. In many ways, he said, as I look back, I attribute the dissolution of our marriage to the fact that you never invited the Bertrams to dinner.
That's possible, I said. But really, if you remember: first, my father was sick that Friday, then the children were born, then I had those Tuesday-night meetings, then the war began. Then we didn't seem to know them any more. But you're right. I should have had them to dinner.
I gave the librarian a check for $32. Immediately she trusted me, put my past behind her, wiped the record clean, which is just what most other municipal and/or state bureaucracies will not do.
I checked out the two Edith Wharton books I had just returned because I'd read them so long ago and they are more apropos now than ever. They were The House of Mirth and The Children, which is about how life in the United States in New York changed in twenty-seven years fifty years ago.
A nice thing I do remember is breakfast, my ex-husband said. I was surprised. All we ever had was coffee. Then I remembered there was a hole in the back of the kitchen closet which opened into the apartment next door. There, they always ate sugar-cured smoked bacon. It gave us a very grand feeling about breakfast, but we never got stuffed and sluggish.
That was when we were poor, I said.
When were we ever rich? he asked.
Oh, as time went on, as our responsibilities increased, we didn't go in need. You took adequate financial care, I reminded him. The children went to camp four weeks a year and in decent ponchos with sleeping bags and boots, just like everyone else. They looked very nice. Our place was warm in winter, and we had nice red pillows and things.
I wanted a sailboat, he said. But you didn't want anything.
Don't be bitter, I said. It's never too late.
No, he said with a great deal of bitterness. I may get a sailboat. As a matter of fact I have money down on an eighteen-foot two-rigger. I'm doing well this year and can look forward to better. But as for you, it's too late. You'll always want nothing.
He had had a habit throughout the twenty-seven years of making a narrow remark which, like a plumber's snake, could work its way through the ear down the throat, half-way to my heart. He would then disappear, leaving me choking with equipment. What I mean is, I sat down on the library steps and he went away.
I looked through The House of Mirth, but lost interest. I felt extremely accused. Now, it's true, I'm short of requests and absolute requirements. But I do want something.
I want, for instance, to be a different person. I want to be the woman who brings these two books back in two weeks. I want to be the effective citizen who changes the school system and addresses the Board of Estimate on the troubles of this dear urban center.
I had promised my children to end the war before they grew up.
I wanted to have been married forever to one person, my ex-husband or my present one. Either has enough character for a whole life, which as it turns out is really not such a long time. You couldn't exhaust either man's qualities or get under the rock of his reasons in one short life.
Just this morning I looked out the window to watch the street for a while and saw that the little sycamores the city had dreamily planted a couple of years before the kids were born had come that day to the prime of their lives.
Well! I decided to bring those two books back to the library. Which proves that when a person or an event comes along to jolt or appraise me I can take some appropriate action, although I am better known for my hospitable remarks
