Reading List for October (Week 3) by Rochelle D’souza

Hello

It has been a few weeks now since I began sharing a list of articles that you can read to help you in the verbal section. Reading is one exercise that must continue till your exam day. 

Why did I call it an exercise. Reading has many benefits just like exercise. But more importantly, like exercise, it must become part of your daily life. You must make it a routine activity without which you feel incomplete. Imagine having to spend a day without bathing or brushing your teeth. Make reading a part of your life and you will witness how this simple 'exercise' promises a better, more fruitful life. 

This week I am sharing only a list of articles. Find time to choose a short book that you will read and do write back and mention the book you chose and how you enjoyed it. 

The list for this week has 21 articles
