In this digital world, Book reading is becoming a rare quality.  Isn't it? Here are my top books for Beginner readers.

The world is moving fast. We prefer twitter, MMS, SMS to Facebook, letters, and emails. 

We always want quick updates. We don't have time to dig into details. 

Still, some people are interested in books, some listen to audiobooks, some watch movie adaptations, some read e-books, use kindles, everyone has some shortcuts.  Agree?

Many colleagues and friends who are still interested in reading books ask me to suggest some easy books for beginners to catch up and make it a habit. They all know there are many advantages of reading books like enhancing our memory, improving our concentration, increasing knowledge, and sometimes, it can be simply to escape to that fantasy land :)

Here is the list of books that I read so far and remembered to document. From this list and beyond, I would like to suggest a few quick, easy reads with quality stuff to any beginner who wants to start the habit of book reading. 

Pin it for later!

recommended books for beginner readers


1. Wise and Otherwise by Sudha Murthy - My review


A short story collection which is based on real-life experiences. Each short story is simple and easy going  which can be completed in an hour. Everyone will definitely love Sudha Murthy's writing style and also understand the moral values behind each story.

2. Five point someone by Chetan Bhagat


Chetan Bhagat's books are simple to read and connect well to the mindset of the youth. This book already was very famous among students and became more popular due to movie adaptation '3 idiots'. Can't believe it's just Rs.52/- in Flipkart now. Anyways, you can complete this easy read very quick for sure :) I would also recommend you to read '2 States' from the same author if you liked this.

3. Urban Shots Cross roads by multiple authors - My review


A fresh breeze of modern short stories from multiple authors. Since there are different stories about different sets of people, we can easily relate to many characters in our day to day lives. As it is basically a collection of short stories, few might be too good, some bad, and some ok types. Overall, it's a good time pass to read this book.



4. Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle - Collection of short stories - My review


My Favorite of all. My habit of book reading started with this and I love these short stories so much. This complete collection is my prized possession so far. 

As you might have guessed from the name of the detective, these are collections of detective stories. You won't be disappointed by the storyline as each one is thrilling. But, the language used in this book might seem too old and classic, you might need some time to love the writing style. 

A good choice for people who love detective stories with mystery and thrill.

5. Lucifer's Lungi by Nitin Sawant - My review



Might not be the best read, but easy-going thriller having humor as an integral part of the story. The first few pages might be boring, but you won't regret picking up this book to read as the remaining part compensates for the same. 

A short story which suits our modern thinking.

So, all beginners... do let me know if you agree with my list.

Note: Books picked above are easy to read and might improve your interest in book reading, but this doesn't mean that they are the only best literary works that I read so far. 

Until next time,
