I've never been much of an artist, and can't draw anything without using a ruler. My best art till date is probably a microscope I drew for my physics practicals in school (the ruler was quite helpful).... However, I do enjoy colouring. It's a recently rediscovered hobby of mine. So I bought a few adult colouring books. This one here is the latest addition, and it has a cover that can be coloured in... so I decided to do the front and back covers first... And I absolutely love this book @johannabasford It has such beautiful illustrations. I'm half scared of ruining them with my colouring XP PS: Ignore the horrible photography... I was too happy to care :D #InkyIvy #IvyAndTheInkyButterfly #JohannaBasford #AdultColouring #Bookstagram #Columnists

Well, that's my August wrap up. Thanks to the reading slump, only 4 books. I also read one action thriller short story called "Environmentally Friendly", the review for which is up on the blog (link in bio) Also, I was tagged by @eternal.pages to the #beautyandthebeastbooktag . So here goes - 1.👑. Tale as old as time (a popular theme/trope/setting you'll never get bored of): Middle-earth and Hogwarts. You can always write stories set in these places and you'll have a loyal reader in me (just don't ruin it, okay ? Shots fired at cursed child). 2.👑. Beast (a book/series you didn't expect much from but pleasantly surprised you) : Has to be the short story "Environmentally Friendly". That's the latest and hence the one I remember. 3.👑. Gaston (a book/series everyone loves but you don't) : Catcher in the rye, I guess ? I know that not everyone loves it but there are plenty of people out there who do. 4.👑. Mrs.Potts, Chip, Lumiere (a book/series that helped you through a dark time or taught you an important life lesson) : Every book that I've read till date has taught me important life lessons. As for helping through dark times, perhaps To Kill A Mockingbird. Just because it was an interesting read, I LOVE the book and I read it during a dark time. 5.👑. Something here (a book/series you didn't like in the beginning but picked up towards the end) : The Girl on the Train. I had a hard time waiting for something to happen. It just dragged on & on & on. But the end was better than the rest of the book. 6.👑. Be our guest (a fictional character you'd like to have over dinner) : Atticus Finch and Bilbo Baggins. I tag anyone who wants to do this tag. #bookstagram #bookstagramindia #books #bookish #booklove #booklover #bookblogger #bookblog #AugustWrapUp #bookphotography #bookphoto #loveofbooks #loveofreading #reader #read #bookworm #bookdragon #bibliophile #booktags #book #reads #reading #bookflatlay #RuskinBond #AgathaChristie #IanMcEwan

Hello book lovers !!! I'm BACK 😎 🙌!! Sorry for not posting for some days. Anyway, while I was MIA, I finished reading these 2 books. BTW, I actually guessed the killer in the Agatha Christie book right at the beginning of the book 🙌. Now I should ideally feel the book isn't good because I could figure out the killer so early in the book, but I'm too happy about my guess being right. Also, weirdly enough both these book revolve around a ruby studded necklace. That's an interesting coincidence, isn't it ? I spent the rest of my time watching MatPat's Game Theory and Film Theory videos 😁. Seriously, he and his wife are #relationshipgoals 😍. I'm sorry if you're bored of me fangirling over Game Theory and MatPat so much 😅. I can't help it. QOTD: What are you currently reading ? My Ans: The Gene by Siddhartha Mukherjee (yes, I'm finally starting this beast) #bookstagram #bookstagramindia #books #thriller #crimefiction #AgathaChristie #bookish #bookphotography #bookphoto #currentlyreading #loveofreading #loveofbooks #booklover #booklove #bookworm #bookdragon #book #reading #reads #comeback #favouriteauthor #authorlove #coverlove #readersofig #readers

Well, unfortunately no one guessed it correctly. But it wasn't very obvious because I have a blue train that's too dark a shade to look blue in pics (hopefully that made sense). I still love this train set though. It has been around for years and will never stop being cool for me (I assure you, I'm not Sheldon-Cooper-like crazy about trains) Anyway, starting this book today. Now usually, I would finish an Agatha Christie book in a day. However, thanks to the blog, I'm reading an ebook along with this book. So it might take 2 days after all. QOTD: What's your favourite Agatha Christie book ? #bookstagram #bookstagramindia #books #bookish #book #AgathaChristie #trains #bookaddict #booklove #booklover #coverlove #loveofbooks #loveofreading #bookphotography #bookphoto #favouriteauthor #crimefiction #mystery #HerculePoirot #bluetrain #bookblogger #bookblog #paperback #bibliophile #bookworm #bookdragon #currentlyreading #currentread

I'm finally at the end of this book. So will finish it today and start something new. It's an interesting read and yet took me so long, this slump is stretching too long. Anyway, I was tagged by @eternal.pages to do the #cakeflavouredbooks tag, so here goes: 1. Chocolate (a book you love) : To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee 2. Red Velvet (a book that gives you mixed emotions) : The Vegetarian by Han Kang 3. Cheesecake (a book you'd recommend) : The Book Thief by Markus Zusak 4. Coffee Cake (a book you started but haven't finished) : Ulysses by James Joyce 5. Carrot Cake (a book with great writing) : Tale of Genji by Murasaki Shikibu Anyone who wants to do this tag, go ahead, consider yourself tagged. #bookstagram #bookstagramindia #books #book #bookish #RuskinBond #currentlyreading #currentread #bookaddict #booklove #bookphotography #bookphoto #loveofbooks #loveofreading #booklover #bibliophile #bookblogger #bookworm #bookdragon #hardcover #bookflatlay #openbooks #favouriteauthor #slump #booktags

Wishing all my fellow Indians a very Happy Independence Day !! 🇮🇳 While others remember watching patriotic movies and the PM's speech on TV, none of those exist in my earliest memories of the day. My childhood memory of Independence Day is of the celebrations in school. Flag hoisting, singing the national anthem, the flag song and the national song, all in the loudest volumes possible. Everyone wearing tri-coloured badges, scrunchies, and bracelets. Song and dance performances by friends, classmates and juniors. The sweets distributed at the end of the celebrations. In fact, I still return to my school almost every Independence day, because otherwise it feels incomplete. QOTD: What are your memories of Independence Day celebrations ? #bookstagram #bookstagramindia #tricolour #India #IndependenceDay #books #book #bookish #booklove #booklover #bookaddict #bookflatlay #loveofbooks #loveofreading #loveofcountry #bookblogger #bookblog #coverlove #bookphotography #paperbacks #bookworm #bookdragon #bibliophile #ProudIndian #reading #IndianAuthors #bookstagramfeatures
