Pickpick

A book authored by India's Shakespeare - Shashi Tharoor. This book, 'Tharoorosauraus' is a super cool version of your average Thesaurus.
The author introduces you to lesser known English words such as 'cwtch' (a warm, intimate hug) through lovely illustrations and riveting explanations of the word's origin and usage over the years.
