DEAR ALL

A pleasant surprise! Last evening, while going through the sources of the visitors on my blog, I found that one of them has been redirected from a website called topindiablogs.com. Sensing something, I went to the site and found my blog www.aboutreading.blogspot.com listed among the top ten blogs under the 'Books' section in India. The website is promoted by indiblogger.com, the biggest directory of Indian blogs which has currently given my blog the ranking of 61 in the scale of 1-100. 

Needless to say, I was suitably pleasantly surprised. 

I do not know what does it mean but it is always good to be noticed, even though my blog is nothing but a private, personal space taken by me in public to share views on books and reading through socio-literary criticism, poetry, culture of book exhibitions and many other intertwined aspects! (this reminds me of one of those minor but sensitive love poems of Eliot, wherein he says, 'these are my private words spoken to you in public")...

Thanks a lot for all your support, co-operation and encouragement and, of course, comments! for promoting this non-commercial, purely personal initiative!!

Best and HAPPY ‘ACTIVE’ READING’!!
