Bhavani Sundaram
Welcome to my website. I’m a blogger, author, and animal lover. My motivational and inspirational books are available on Amazon. Reading became a part of my life at a young age, thanks to my parents. I started with Amar Chitra Katha and comics like Archie, Asterix, and Richie Rich. Gradually, I moved on to reading Enid Blyton, Nancy Drew, and the Hardy Boys.
In our family, reading the daily newspaper was a routine. I still enjoy it, even though many people now prefer to read on their phones. Sometimes, I see younger generations more interested in games and social media. For them, the words “books” and “reading” seem like punishments. It makes me think about what they are missing out on.
Books take you to a world of wonder, filled with dreams, feelings, and emotions. They connect you to the characters, and often you find yourself reliving your life through their stories. I never thought of myself as an Author but I guess the love for books, reading and sharing my thoughts and experiences made be an author today and I owe a lot to my parents.
My website invites you to this wonderland. I will share my thoughts, experiences, and book reviews here. I hope we can connect and share our common thoughts and feelings.
