As a research student, I read several books every month. Some of these readings pertain to my PhD research, whereas others are read to sustain my intellectual curiosity daily. In this blog, I wish to list all the books I have read and reviewed so far, a link to where you may purchase them, and the list of books yet to be read—but my list, and finally, what I am currently reading.
