What are some suggestions for books in English and Marathi language for my daughter for summer holiday? She is 15 years old.

Hi !

But being a teenager myself , I would request you to let her explore what she want to read. Even if you come across the best books and she does not want to read , there will be no use . Let her find it herself . It could be a suggestion from friend, teacher , anybody who influence her or even google search !

That’s it . I am eager to know which one of these your daughter choose. Let me know if you need some help.

I listened to Kamala Harris speech she gave in North Carolina. I support 100% of what she said. I am more and more in favor of a Kamala Harris presidency if Biden becomes unable to be our president! Do you find yourself supporting Kamala Harris now?

Biographies of famous persons( like Lal Bahadur Shastri, Munshi Premchand , Chanakya ,Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam ,Amartya Sen )Yes these are ones I have read in the past few months and all are inspirational in a way or other.

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. The most wonderful book I have read in my whole life .It is a fiction which inspires us to follow our dream.

The books I am suggesting are just for anyone (of course I don’t know your daughter) These books have always inspired me and I hope your daughter likes them too : )

Why are the Chinese so sensitive to Western criticism?

Keep Reading ,Stay Happy

Atomic Habits by James Clear .This book is anyway so popular that I don’t think I need to tell anything about it

Diary of a Wimpy kid. She could either love it or find it ok ( I am suggesting because I don’t know her )

Gene mutation found in the bacterium behind the Black Death helped plague conquer the world, scientists say - CNN

Sudha Murthy books ( All of her books are suitable for a 15 year old , even if you may feel they are children’s books) My favourite book from Sudha Murthy is “The Old man and his God”

For any school going girl ,summer vacation is best time to invest in reading.

Although I have stayed in Maharashtra for 3 years , still i cannot read or properly understand Marathi. However , I can suggest books in English which your daughter will love . { These are not from the BookTok }

Were knights’ lances practical weapons, or were they just for sports?
