Recommend some good book(s)

Hey fellow bookworms!

I think the title is self-explanatory. All genres are welcome. So let's goooooo!!!

My recs:

  1. The Man who became Khali
  2. The odd little bird who saved a family
  3. A Gift of Goddess Lakshmi (Somehow these are the ones I thought to recommend, all of them are real life stories)

Looove Never Let Me Go to death. The film adaptation was also excellent and heartbreaking and really well done. 💔

Beartown is such a let down by the author, when reading after “A man called Ove”.

I read very few books in English, but what I loved the most is "The Theory of Everything".

If you're a Telugu reader, I'd recommend the following:

Attagari Kathalu by Bhanumati Ramakrishna Barishter Parvatheesam Rupayi Cheppina Kathalu Ka Raju Kathalu Budugu by Mullapudi Venkata Ramana Pada Nishpadana Kala by Vachaspati

Thank you for your recommendations, but unfortunately I don't have knowledge of Telugu language😅

I am sure if anyone here is a Telugu reader they will enjoy these.
