walikum asalam,

aap k suggestions ka behad shukriya. voting ka silsila inshaAllah 5+ members k baad karna chahoon gi. abhi kyun k sirf 2-3 log hain tou agli kitaab dusri member suggest karen gi. agar aap chahen tou august k maheene main jo kitaab hai, usska suggestion de sakte hain.

jahan tak group k naam ka sawaal hai tou woh main badalne k haq main nahi hoon kyun k it isn’t meant to be “grammatically” correct. Rather it’s a colloquial term used to refer to any individual who loves to read/loves books. I hope that makes sense, inshaAllah.

Jee inshallah hum voting 5 members se zyada hone par hi karege, magar 3 logo me bhi agar mashwara hojaye to behtar hoga, sumaira hameed ki koi bhi kitaab hum le sakte hai, mene unhe padha nahi hai par logo ne unki kitabo ko bohot pasand kiya hai.

Mere kehne ka matlab tha ki, mene puri koi kitaab nahi padhi hai par ek novella padhi thi, 'borshay' aur unka writing style mujhe pasand aaya, isiliye mene unki kitaabe suggest kardi.
Agar aap ki nazar me koi aur kitaab hai toh please share kijiye.

Some other suggestions:

1) https://urdumom.com/2020/04/urdu-book...

2) http://www.dawn.com/news/1169798

3) https://bolojawan.com/new/new/10-ente...

The book doesn’t necessarily have to be a novel; it could be a collection of short stories, essays etc.

Isn't alakh nagri the sequel of alipur ka aili.. Wow that means we have four books to read.
How about if we go in this sequence...
1) Alipur ka aili
2) Himaqate
3) alakh nagri( we'll decide this one after reading Alipur ka aili)
4) Mazeed himaqate

Alipur ka aili - https://bookspdfpoint.blogspot.com/20...

InshaAllah. JazakAllah for sharing the book.

Aoa!! Toh hum kal se Alipur ka aili shuru kar rahe hai na??
Hamare club ki inshallah yeh pehli kitaab hogi(not technically), mujhe puchna tha ki kya hum kitaab khatam hone ke baad hi discuss karege ya phir ek chapter ke baad bhi kar sakte hai?

walikum asalam. meri taraf se bilkul, kal se aghaaz hai, inshaAllah.

jahan tak chapter by chapter discussion ka sawaal hai tou agar aap ya dusre members aisa karna chahte hain tou sau bismillah. mere liye yeh mumqin nahi kyun k reading speeds k saath coordinate karna bohat mushkil ho jaye ga. main thread bana dayti hoon aur inshaAllah discussion maheene k end pe join kar loon gi.


message 15: by Unni (new)

Unni | 343 comments Mod
Jee, aapki baat bhi durust hai ke coordinate karna mushkil hojayega... par har koi chapter khatam hone par ek chota sa update desakta hai ke kesa laga, apne khayalaat,koi favourite line ya jo kuch bhi who share karna chahe!


message 16: by SK ❥, Founder (new)

SK ❥ (qalbtalk) | 111 comments Mod
favourite line wala idea acha hai, inshaAllah. bas spoiler k lehaaz se ehtiyaat karni pare gi :)
