- Abhinav
To quote few lines from the book Into the wild ,"The joy of life comes from our encounter with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun." Abhinav considers himself sort of a recluse vying for new experiences everyday. In this journey he has found books to be a great medium. Every book seems to teach him something but it is not about blindly following what it preaches, in fact it's about forming your own perceptions and values for which books are a medium.

She reads anything and everything that appeals to her, especially children's books, which she reviews at SaffronTree. She also reviews at BookRack. She can say with conviction, that over four decades of reading, she has honed a sixth sense about the good, the bad, the ugly and the inconsequential as far as books go.
She is also a stay-at-home mom to an equally book-loving 11 year old. They are both fascinated by words, the way language evolved and is used.
