A2Z of Book Terms-Satabdi Mukherjee

Book: A2Z of Book Terms
Author: Satabdi Mukherjee
Publisher: Blogchatter

Have you ever participated in a trivia game and got stuck on a term?

A2Z of Book Terms by Satabdi Mukherjee is a collection of 26 little known terms related to books. From Biopredation to Deckled Edges, each of the term is a revealation about the world we are enthusiastic about, yet know so little. This volume of bookish trivia is a collection that would help you host your own bookish trivia night, or maybe just test your friends on social media!

The trivia in the book is well researched and each of them is quite unique. While being detailed and subjective, the information provided is just right in terms of length and the technicalities that the chapters have are good enough to give a basic understanding of the term. A well researched book, the details cover the history, possible other meanings as well as the utility of the term to create a well-rounded understanding. Each of the chapter has a proper introduction, body and ending, making it easy to read. The USP of the book are the 26 unique terms and their relation to the book community. It must have taken a lot of time to zero in on the terms to include and exclude.

I would definitely recommend the book to you if you like to read slowly and even if you read one chapter a day, it can be finished in less than a month, and it would not take more than 15 minutes to read per day. The book is well formatted and can be read easily on a mobile device or even a kindle and you wouldn’t face any issues related to font or text.

Scoring a 4/5 for me, I would like to suggest Satabdi to look at publishing a pocket-sized paperback and maybe a card game to accompany it.
