As a part of our special interactive series with Oxford Booklovers, we asked them to recommend three books for bedtime reading. We received hundreds of entries with Oxford Booklovers talking about the books that refresh them after a hard day’s work.
A lucky draw decided the winner of this contest. And the winner is:
Vinita Agrawal
She recommends M. M. Kaye’s The Far Pavilions, Robert James Waller’s The Bridges of Madison County and Colleen Mccullough’s The Thorn Birds.

“Each of these books has a predominant thread of love running through them. They have an aching sweetness, which is perfect for bedtime reading. Yet they are not saccharine in nature, each book brings alive its individual setting in the mind of the reader and builds a connection with the protagonists which is very real…in fact so real that you'll invite them in your dreams when you finally turn off the lights.” |
Congratulations! We will send you a gift voucher of Rs 250 soon.
We are glad to feature some more recommendations that we received from our readers. Thank you for sharing your suggestions with us.
