Ruskin Bond,
Sudha Murty, whose writings are simple, description always make me visualise whatever
author is writing, whether it is a story or real-life incident. Due to their
writing style and humble nature that reflect in their writings and in their personality
made me huge fan of them (in terms of reading their books and try and look for
their new book). Apart from these authors I enjoy reading Jim Corbett.
Recently I happened to read Corbett's

The description
in these two books whether about the people or the creatures in the jungles,
flora and fauna made me hook to the books till I complete reading, taking me
into the world of jungle. Mostly I enjoyed reading the life of people in the
jungles and the tiger/tigress, their behavior and why tiger/tigress/leopard turn
into man-eaters. Most of all the human-wildlife conflict or coexistence.
