I grew up in a house without a TV and lots of mythological books. So my only entertainment was reading. As a kid I was fascinated by those stories.
In high school my brother was a Telugu district topper and his dream was to become a Professor . He used to bring literature books to home like Mahashweta by Sudha murty, tilak's Amrutham kurisina ratri. Veellanemi Cheddam by Yandamoori, I read all those books multiple times.
Just like many Indians i learn English by reading Chetan bhagat books. It gives me access to a wider range of books which are available in English.
In my graduation I started reading self-help books like 7 habits of highly effective people. Secret , Power of habit. These books shaped my career and helped me to achieve financial independence.
Books made me who I'm today. I rely on books for everything. They give me first hand knowledge of topics like finance, health and career. Reading is one of my primary entertainments, I read as much as I watch movies.
Here are some of my book recommendations.
