Top 6 books for Quarantine

“THE MORE THAT YOU READ, 
THE MORE THINGS YOU WILL KNOW. 
THE MORE THAT YOU LEARN,  
THE MORE PLACES YOU’LL GO.”
And who doesn’t want to travel after being quarantined for months? 

This particular quote by Dr. Seuss left me mesmerizing. The power of words, the power of books, has always fascinated me. Different studies by different scholars have proven the inevitable competence of books.

How each chapter of a book takes us to an adventure by making us experience the presence of spirit, sometimes the touch of a soft breeze, and sometimes by letting us talk with historical characters.



Here are the top 6 picks for making quarantine productive. Moreover, I have added the available PDF link for each book so that you don’t have to waste time on finding.



So, Let’s dive-in into the sea of adventure and knowledge.
