          31st December 2015. It’s the last day of the year, already. It’s been quite a roller coaster of a year. This year, my blog has remained my constant. No matter what happened I could always write it out on my blog. It was a venting machine. It was a thought portrayal. It was an imagination hoarder. It has been everything that made my 2015 good. If it weren’t for my blog, it would’ve just been a sad year with loneliness. But instead, it became a happy and satisfying year. Here are the top 10 posts I’ve written in this year!<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
1. An Interview with Shooter, Gautami Pandit<\/a>.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          This was a post wherein I interviewed a national shooter. It was a great experience knowing the life of a sportswoman.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
2. House of Cards. (Book Review #13)<\/a><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          This is the book review of an incredible book by one of my favourite Indian authors, Sudha Murty. I don’t know how it came up on #2 position but I’m glad it did. I enjoyed reading this. You can check out the entire review.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
3. 100 Books and Counting.<\/a><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          It felt exhilarating and adventurous to have read 100 books. In this post, I’ve mentioned a couple of books which I’ve rated at 5 stars, 4 stars and so on. It might be helpful for your 2016 TBR list!<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
4. Coincidental Love. (Part I)<\/a><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          This was the first love story I had written. It’s a short story. Writing this one was one of the best times I had in this year. I hope you liked it.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
5. All the Bright Places. (Book Review #8)<\/a><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          This is an amazing novel. I just loved reading it. The book belongs to Young Adult genre and is brilliantly written by Jennifer Niven.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
6. Physical Book Vs E-Book.<\/a><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          This is a comparison between physical books and e-books. I love reading both kinds but of course, a physical book is always preferred. Can’t miss that book smell after all.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
7. Readers, Thank You. (Blogoversary Part 1)<\/a><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          My first blogoversary was this year in September! After years, I had finally stuck with something. I was filled with joy that blogging didn’t turn out to be a three-month thing. And I know that it’s more like a forever thing. Blogging has become an essential part of my life now and I couldn’t be more happy about it.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
8. Why Do Bad Things Happen To Good People?<\/a><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          I remember writing this one. I was lost in deep thoughts about life and people. And I needed to rant it out. Hence, I wrote this one. I hope it helps you if you find yourself wondering about things.<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
9. Musical Retreat. (Monday Moments #3)<\/a><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          I love my blog series, Monday Moments. It helps me a lot for writing fiction. I’m glad this post in the series is viewed so many times. Can’t live without music, right?<\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
10. Just One Day Series. (Book Review #12)<\/a><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n
          Now this is a book series I loved. A lot! It’s about love and destiny. It’s the kind of story which will rekindle your belief in love. If you haven’t read it yet, go and read it!<\/span><\/div>\n
