About

Welcome to Golden Books 24*7!

About Me and My Blog



I am Sona Dasgupta. I'm from the land of the highest number of readers- India, and lives in the city known for its hospitality- Patna. I'm 18 year old year old dreamer and a reader. I love to read books and write my stories, whose ideas comes to me at really inappropriate places (Like really inappropriate!). 
I'm sucker for Cute pups, chocolate mousse (Yum!) and free book goodies, I mean who doesn't love that! And if you promise to keep a secret, than I'll confess that I'm quite a cheater ( pssh! Don't tell any of my book boyfriends ! ).

      Books and I have been besties from a really long time, and after getting disappointed numerous times for not being able to find a efficient outlet to show my love towards it, I started this blog with the hope of lightening this stubborn candle at last.

 After some contemplation, I named the Blog Golden Books 24*7 . This was done on based on many reasons, first being our tagline - "Because all books are a golden treasure waiting for you to discover them day & night (24*7)."
            Another reason is the reason why this blog define me. You see, my name Sona means a lot of things, one of them is the "the golden one". So this blog mainly tells about all my books that I've read and continue reading without giving a thought to the time of the day. Yeah, I'm quite sneaky like that.

      I'm new to this blogging world and I'm still learning. And when I see some of the top book-blogs , the first thought that comes to my mind is - "wow , I've still got a lot to learn". But you know its okay. You can't just reach top of the mountain without starting the initial climb right? 

 And that's where I need your help. Yes you. Some of you be may be the top & popular bloggers I'm talking about. Some may be like me, still getting to know the field. Some might still be waiting for their own initiation or some may just wanna read. 
          But every one of you has one thing in common. A passion for reading. The smile when you hold a dear book in your hands. The random goofy dorky moments. The excitement when your most awaited book releases.
   Yes, you are the reader for today and tomorrow. And all I'm asking is to encourage me and everyone like me who need a little cheer up during their climb.

That being.... here are some quicks FAQs.

  • Publishers, authors, and other bloggers are welcome to contact me with any questions, suggestions, or book recommendations. You can contact me at sonaguptaforever@gmail.com 
  • I'm happy to review or promote your book! If you are interested, then please read my Review Policy for details or my Reviews Label to see my past reviews. I look forward to working with you!
  • The books I read come to me through the library, books I buy, contests, authors, and publishers. I do not receive any compensation for the reviews I write. All books I receive are in exchange for only a fair and honest review. You can find my reviews on my blog, Amazon.com, and Goodreads.

Thank you for your time,
Love,
Sona Dasgupta,
Official Blogger Of Golden Books 24*7.

Some Important Revisals

 Hello fellow readers,
                      So some of you may remember that I started a blog feature called 'Wednesday Wonders', where every wednesday I used to post a book review. Well, I'm quite revising the feature now. You see in order to post these reviews, I had to complete a book in a very hurried manner, which was really frustrating, especially for those books which I would have loved to read slowly.

So basically every week I used to start a new book and I was like..




And then I'm so into it that I'm like....



And then I remember it's Wednesday and I need to hurry and I'm like...


Then at last I decided that this can't go on. So from now, I'm gonna write the reviews when I finished the books at my own pace. (yeah, you heard me right!)

         But then what about "Wednesday Wonders"? No worry! It's still gonna be there, but from now It will about the upcoming book release that I'm excited about.  Remember? Wednesday Wonders , book you ought to look out for? I guess it was fated from the begining.


So for now, 

Adios, Sayonara , Hasta-la-vista.
Sona Dasgupta.

Golden books 24*7 is born !!

Little- Bittle First Steps

    “I have always imagined that Paradise will be a kind of library.” 
― Jorge Luis Borges
     

  I fully agree with Mr. Borges there. In today's world book has gained a tremendous popularity, which was never estimated before. Around £ 2.2 billion is spent on books in the UK each year, so imagine the amount estimated worldwide! Books has crossed every bulwark, whether it was a gender based or age based. There are only two types of people left in the world now who doesn't love reading.
  1.     The Abibliophobic- who are afraid of reading books. (My sympathies with you guys.)
  2.     The Ever-Frustrating Bonehead- who never understands the art of reading.( Seriously, I've nothing to say guys.).


People in India are the world's biggest readers, spending an average 10.7 hours a week reading. This explains my obsession with books I guess! So after reading over thousands of books and finding not a sufficient amount of people to gush about them, I've at last surrendered and decided to start my own blog. 
                    So now you will be thinking what's new in that? To say the truth, there's nothing new here but only the good old reviews, which you would never get bored from.

          Which brings me back to the main topic- A sweet little introduction to Who am I?

   
    I am Sona Dasgupta, an avid reader with dreams of writing the millions stories that jumps on me untimely (eg.writing my final exams, walking on the crossing etc. etc.) and unravel every books ever known to the mankind. Nothing too impossible right?
             
     And why the name 'Golden Books 24*7' ? Simple, because every book is a golden treasure which are waiting  24*7, all day and night for you to discover them.  

              So for those who didn't understand my maze writings, this blogs is mainly about numerous books I will read and the reviews, I'll write. Coz u see, You can't buy happiness but you can buy books, and that's kind of same thing for me.

So for now,
Goodbye, Adieu, Sayonara..
Sona Dasgupta.
