So for the second Thursday Hops post, I have this pic of Bhimtal hills.
Oops, the hills are barely visible through the monsoon clouds. Yes, monsoon is here! It’s raining every day. We may be running out of dry clothes, but we sure are enjoying the weather along with hot cups of tea/coffee and assorted savories. Sometimes, these clouds even waft in indoors, making it really hard to work from home!
I have been reading voraciously since the age of five when I first discovered the joys of reading. I would lap up anything in print. Unrolling an emptied newspaper cone with one hand, stuffing roasted peanuts in my mouth with the other, all the while devouring the printed content on the cone with my eyes, was one of my first experiences in hedonistic pleasure.
In fact, sometimes I feel that I am on an adventurous journey through the secret dreamworld of other people's imaginations, interspersed with occasional visits to my own life to attend events like graduation, first job, marriage, and so on.
As a true-blue reader, I think I am uniquely qualified to comment on and critique other people's works of labour. I can tell exactly what puts the average reader to sleep, what sets their pulse racing, and what has them salivating for more.

Fascinating to think about clouds coming inside a house! Thanks for this peek at monsoon season, which I have never experienced, as I live near Washington, DC.
Thanks Mimi! As most of India is scorched during the summer months, Monsoon comes as a big relief. In younger days, I loved getting in drenched in the first monsoon rain of the season.

Sounds like fun!
