The first book I would love to share is Kurunji Malar. This book is very special to me because it was gifted by my favorite senior during my school days as my 13th birthday present. Along with the gift, she made me promise that I would finish reading it within 13 days. And yes 😀 I kept that promise. 😊 As I read through the pages, I slowly fell in love with the story… and especially with the protagonist, Aravindhan. He became my first fictional crush 🥰 a character whose simplicity, dignity, and depth stayed with me long after I finished the book. That was the moment I realized how deeply books can touch our hearts and shape our thoughts. Now, let me share the details of this beautiful novel.
Book Title: Kurinji Malar (குறிஞ்சி மலர்)
Book Author: Na. Parthasarathy
Take Away Message: The novel teaches that self-respect, education, and strong values give a person the strength to face life’s hardships. True dignity comes from character, not circumstances.
Short Explanation (Spoiler-free): Kurinji Malar tells the story of a young woman (Poorani) whose life changes suddenly after the death of her father and how she grows through her inner strength. The novel blends emotions with social realities and highlights human values beautifully.
Genre: Social Fiction / Historical Fiction
Why I Recommend It: This book leaves a deep impact by showing how quiet strength, integrity, and humanity can shape a person’s life even in the most difficult situations. Kurunji Malar reminds us that love is not a moment of attraction, but a lifelong choice of commitment, responsibility, and growing together. Real love creates strength, not weakness.
