Hello everyone!  What books do you plan to read this year? Have you made a list? You should try to read atleast 10 books this year. As a family too, we have set up a challenge to read books and I have promised to reward the family member who reads the most number of books this year. It will be interesting to see who wins. Why not set up a similar challenge and get your friends and family to read. I am sharing a few lists here which can help you select the books you intend to read https://www.theguardian.com/world/2002/may/08/books.booksnews https://time.com/collection/must-read-books-2022/ Back to this week’s reading list - 20 articles and a few short stories Here are the articles  https://aeon.co/essays/pain-is-not-the-purview-of-medics-what-can-historians-tell-us https://thecritic.co.uk/read-for-pleasure/ https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/jan/05/maths-schools-rishi-sunak-arts-sport https://prospect.org/power/let-twitter-die/ https://drb.ie/articles/murder-most-foul/ http

Hello everyone!  Happy New Year to you and all your loved ones. May we read a little more… This year as you resolve to read a little more, focus on being consistent. It could be reading for 10 minutes everyday or 5 pages. Do what is comfortable for you. But focus on being consistent. Tracking whether you read everyday is the best way to stay focused.  So let’s commit to track our reading habit as we progress through this new year.  Sharing this week’s list of 20 articles . Including a special section for poems for XAT takers Good luck to all those taking XAT 2023.  https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/dec/29/on-the-sixth-day-of-christmas-or-was-it-the-seventh-why-numbers-matter-more-than-ever https://daily.jstor.org/who-wants-the-metaverse/ https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2023/01/02/world/globalization-after-china/ https://www.neh.gov/humanities/2018/winter/feature/texting-in-ancient-mayan-hieroglyphs https://aeon.co/essays/the-indian-epic-mahabharata-imparts-a-dark-nuanced
