Finally, this is that time of the year we all have been waiting for. There must have been a long to-do list prepared for this 10-15 days Dashain Vacation. Dusting off the corners, washing curtains, shopping, stocking pantry, resuming YouTube guitar lessons, painting old jeans and tote bags, traveling, reading novels, etc. Well, reading novels can be a great time pass to escape the hustle and bustle of this festival. If you are a beginner and don’t know how to pick your first books then here are some of the suggestions.
5 Books For The Beginners To Read During Dashain/Tihar Vacation
1. The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho
Personally, the very first novel I read was The Alchemist. After that, I realized what books can do to you and your mind. A completely satisfying book for beginners, I would say. The book is one of the finest crafts of Paulo Coelho with easy language and fascinating plots. This is the story of a shepherd who travels from his homeland Spain to the Egyptian desert in search of a treasure buried near the pyramids.
2. Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott
If you are looking for a romantic novel then I suggest you go with this one. It is simple to understand, highly informative, and not at all cliché. It is a moving story of two teens who fall in love with just one minor complication- they can’t get within five feet of each other without risking their lives. I guarantee you wet eyes and a red running nose. Think of it, can you love someone you can never touch?
3. The Diary of a Young Girl by Anne Frank
If you are looking for some biographies and autobiographies, then this is a must-read book. This is the story of a thirteen-year-old Jewish girl in her own words, with a powerful reminder of the horrors of war and an eloquent testament to the human spirit.
4. Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki
If you are highly concerned about your future and financial stability, then this book may do a good job. It advocates the importance of financial literacy, financial independence, and building wealth through investing in assets, real estate investing, etc. This is Robert’s story of growing up with two dads- his real father and the father of his best friend- his Rich Dad and how both men shaped his thoughts about money and investing.
5. Relationships: Bond or Bondage by Sadhguru
This is a treat to your spiritual side. The book defines the various unheard interrelationships between the cosmos, nature, and the human body. Here, Sadhguru shares with us the keys to forming lasting and joyful relationships whether they are with husband or wife, family, and friends, at work, or with the very existence itself.
Well, here are some of the books for aspiring readers who want to build a reading habit. These books can help you develop your brain and involve you in reading more books. Besides, for the regular readers, there are plenty of choices based on your preferences. After reading these five books, the new readers can easily identify their taste in books. So, HAPPY READING!
