I really love this book. I read it decades ago & i fell in love with Indian culture & history. I love how myths & history are interwoven
Panchaali is born from fire and is married to 5 brothers, this is her story and how they changed all things around them.
The writing is gorgeous, the characters are regal but also likable.
Only complaint is there are so many characters it can be confusing, family tree doesn't help as much as a list would have.

This week's TBR I am so close to being done with The Palace of Illusions and Trespasses hoping to finish at least one today.
I am also listening to Wives And Daughters which is a chunkster.

It had been about two years since I was forced to buy this book by my father, and I‘ve never had the interest to open it. Even when recommending, I told people to not buy this book but I never read the book myself. I regret not recommending this book tbh, I opened in few days ago and the story, the way it was written, the characters, they held me captive. I finished the whole book within 3 sittings. Highly recommend it to Indologists!

Enneagram Profiling of Mahabharata Characters🏹📙

🌞💖 Ever wonder, if Mahabharata characters had taken an Enneagram test, what personality type could they have been? Watch this video, where I profile them based on the 9 Enneagram types. 💖🌞

I don't know why I am reading it. I didn't know I signed up for a history lesson with so many characters and stories so cringe worthy and problematic! #notforme

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join the fun if you want.
