Readers sharing pictures after receiving my book ‘Diary, Deceit, and Death’
Last evening, a friend in Delhi shared the first snap of my book reaching her.
Late in the night, an avid reader shared the pictures on Instagram stories tagging me and mentioned how excited she was to receive the book.
This morning, a reader friend, who’s also an author himself, shared about receiving the book. He couldn’t stop racing about the gorgeous cover.
There’s no greater joy for an author than to see her books reach the hands of the readers. Thank you Juin, Dalbir, and Bookkida for sharing the snaps. Hope you enjoy reading it.
