National book fair

Are you a book worm like me or you find solace in anything fiction. If you like dwelling into books and craft your own book world ,I went to the best place for you which is Book Fair, a paradise for all readers. So I visited National book fair in Lucknow at the eleventh hour, but luckily I got piles of books for me. The book fair ended on 2nd October ie. yesterday. Amidst book shelves and stalls were thousands of books laid. Touching the amusing paperback and hardcover books felt like caressing a piece of literature. As my fingerprints brush against the cover, there’s a subtle promise of adventure, knowledge and emotions waiting to be unfolded. Every book has a new virtue to be unrevealed. Book fair excited me very much as the idea of being surrounded by multiple books of different genres nourished my soul. The books ranged from Amish Tripathi to Collen Hoover to autobiographies. All genres were available.There was vast collection of new books . The books price started from just 50 bucks and the range goes till 4 books at just INR 500. Can you belive it??I bet you won’t get that quality book in so less money.

For bibliophiles like me, it was no less than winning a jackpot. If you are planning to get hold of tons of books,National book fairs are like gold mines!! For me it was my first time visiting a book fair,I was hesitant at first imagining the crowded place with tons of books but it was a WORTH IT experience. Do let me know when are you planing to visit a book fair and if you would have been at my place which books would you have hand picked . In the picture attached below are books I bought and dumped at my place.
