Mukesh, a widower is still grieving his wife's death and is trying very hard to come close to his granddaughter Priya who is a bookworm just like his wife. Aleisha, a bright young teenager who hates reading books since childhood is now working in a local library which she hates too.
Mukesh finds a book under his bed which his wife had borrowed from the library and decides to return it and at the same time try to understand more about books so that he can develop a close connection with his granddaughter and asks Aleisha for suggestions. But Aleisha who has not read a single novel in her life doesn't respond quite well initially.
But when she stumbles upon a piece of paper that has a list of novels that she has not read or heard of before, she grows a little intrigued and decides to read each and every book in the same order and also suggests the same to Mukesh after reading it. Little did they know that reading these books will change their perspectives about life and also each other's relationships.
A fantastic debut that will connect with all those who loves books. It shows the power of reading and how it can alter our lives completely and the way we think and responds to situations, the wisdom it imparts on us and so on. A very enthralling read that with a very engaging plot and some amazing selection of books to discuss.
The author has summarised each of the books so brilliantly that if you haven't read those books yet you will definitely feel an urge to read them as soon as you finish reading this. I recommend it to all the book worms out there. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one.
