Reading Options

By exploring the different readings that are available to me it started to get me excited. I think what I liked most is how a lot of the stories are interconnected and characters are in smaller stories all to create one big story. One of the readings I am particularly looking forward to is Kumbhakarna, I liked this one because the illustrations looked fun and the Ramayana sounds very intriguing. I also saw Narayan's Mahabarata because when I looked at the book there were so many stories all in that one book, I am eager to learn all about the culture and history. The Jataka Tales were another story that caught my eye because it talks about former lives which I find to be very interesting and I think it may be something I want to do some future stories on. I found lots of different ideas of what I may want to do in the coming future but I would say one of my favorites was the idea of talking about former lives, that seems to really grab my attention.
