“I’m so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.” ― L. M. Montgomery
The months are fleeting by too fast in 2020. We were just in March, staggering to accept the maladies of a new foe and here it’s October already, still proving fatal to quite a few. But, we’re fighting back and someday we’ll conquer every disease. Till then, keep calm and read as much as you can.
There are new books releasing every month and many of them are absolutely amazing. I feel these would be amazing to read in October.

Stoned Shamed Depressed – Jyotsna Mohan Bhargava
We have been witnessing the gradual crumbling of urban teens in India, struggling with various problems like addiction, social media, peer pressure, bullying and body shaming. Do we know how are they coping? Jyotsna Mohan Bhargava is a senior journalist and has penned down this heart-wrenching account.
Serious Men – Manu Joseph
Oh, have you watched the movie on Netflix already? I’m one of those, having watched the movie and now longing to read the novel. It’s the story of Ayyan Mani who is in awe of genius people and is not just another ‘man’ in Mumbai. Judging the movie, I’d say the plot is brilliant and so would be the book. Recommended to everyone.
Xianqui – Raghu Srinivasan
A secret weapon in China, a temperamental USA president, a few Indians in Tibet & an apocalyptic war. Sounds familiar? The year depicted in the novel is 2019 but it may well have been rendered nearly true in 2020. Since this is too eerie to our current reality, it’s a must read this month. Raghu Srinivasan is a serving officer in the Indian Army.

The best of Fantasy fiction from the author of the much revered ‘Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norell’, Susanna Clarke is all set to sweep more awards with this book. If you love magical spells, bad weather, statues that talk – go for it!

A Thousand Cranes For India – Pallavi Aiyar

There are 23 pieces from India’s eminent writers, poets and artists. Based on the Japanese legends of origami in the shape of cranes to have their wishes realised, this book might fulfil some of ours too.

Manjiri Indurkar is the founder of the Bookshelf Writing Workshelf. She lives and writes from Jabalpur.
