My love for books started with a little boy, Brave Little Henry, who climbs a mountain to find a plant that will cure his mother’s illness. I was fascinated by this little boy’s adventures. He travels for years to get the cure, and in that journey meets so many interesting characters. And with his journey, I started my own and never looked back.

Hello! Welcome to my blog. My name is Virgin Doss. I live in Chennai, India and I am a full time IT professional and also a full time home maker.

In the early years of my life, I predominantly read fiction. I love mystery, thrillers, magical realism, and fantasy. But that is slowly changing to more contemplative, more reflective prose. I am also slowly getting into the non-fiction zone. I’m not much into self-help books (more like an aversion), but I am definitely on board with memoirs.

I want to try reading more books by Indian authors from different regions in India. Also want to read books from all over the world. That feels like a tall order but hey, the journey is as important as the destination, isn’t it?

I personally categorise books into those that I like & recommend, or those I am not sure how I feel & let you make your own judgement. I think every book has its audience, so I try not to judge a book too harshly even if I don’t like it all that much. I will just share what I think about the books and authors I have read or am currently reading. 

This is my journey in this enormous world of books, and if you have reached till here then a big thank you and welcome aboard!
