For any school going girl ,summer vacation is best time to invest in reading.
Hi !
Although I have stayed in Maharashtra for 3 years , still i cannot read or properly understand Marathi. However , I can suggest books in English which your daughter will love . { These are not from the BookTok }
Sudha Murthy books ( All of her books are suitable for a 15 year old , even if you may feel they are children’s books) My favourite book from Sudha Murthy is “The Old man and his God”
That’s it . I am eager to know which one of these your daughter choose. Let me know if you need some help.
But being a teenager myself , I would request you to let her explore what she want to read. Even if you come across the best books and she does not want to read , there will be no use . Let her find it herself . It could be a suggestion from friend, teacher , anybody who influence her or even google search !
Diary of a Wimpy kid. She could either love it or find it ok ( I am suggesting because I don’t know her )
The books I am suggesting are just for anyone (of course I don’t know your daughter) These books have always inspired me and I hope your daughter likes them too : )
Biographies of famous persons( like Lal Bahadur Shastri, Munshi Premchand , Chanakya ,Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam ,Amartya Sen )Yes these are ones I have read in the past few months and all are inspirational in a way or other.
The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. The most wonderful book I have read in my whole life .It is a fiction which inspires us to follow our dream.
Keep Reading ,Stay Happy
Atomic Habits by James Clear .This book is anyway so popular that I don’t think I need to tell anything about it
