Around India in 80 Trains by Monisha Rajesh
3.0
I picked up this book after reading Rajesh's newest book Around the World in 80 trains. I enjoyed her other book mostly because she wrote about many experiences, journeys and places on my bucket list. This book was different, Rajesh introduced to places I've never heard of and took me on journeys I could never brave in real life.
Through the lens of a British-Indian woman this book does everything from detailing incredible landscapes to discuss issues such as race and religion. Her unique travel style and perspective are the perfect way to experience India's railways vicariously. It's the perfect cure for lockdown wanderlust!
Though her second book is definitely more riveting, this little gem definitely deserves 4/5!
