2024 year review

On By Varun VasudevIn Ramblings

Hey! 2024 hasn’t been a great year in terms of posting on the blog. That being said, books were still read and I hope to get those reviews up eventually. Here’s a summary of my 2024 (uploaded on time this year) in terms of top 3 books read under a specific genre. I’ve added a star rating next to the book names so anyone reading this has an idea of how much I liked the book. Longer reviews for the same will, hopefully, come one day.
