Reading List by Rochelle Dsouza - Year 2023 - 18 December 2023

Hello everyone! This is the last Reading list for this year. I may not be able to post one next week, but I will be back with an article list from 2nd Jan 2024. 

Thank you to all my readers and my students who reach out appreciating the work that is put into compiling a list. My endeavour has been to put a comprehensive list of diverse articles and stories. If you are someone who began reading consistently due to this list, I feel blessed. Do share your experiences by writing to me. This is the mission with which I have been posting a reading list for a few years now. 

Happy Holidays to you. Spend time with your family and friends. Cherish these times and create memories. 

A small task is what I leave you with - make a list of books you would like to read in the year 2024 - it could be 3 or 30. And set yourself up for this challenge. Feel free to share your challenge with me and I would love to feature these lists in my reading list. 

Wishing you all a joyous season of love and peace. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
