<aside> 📚 So a few years ago, for Kannada Rajyotsava (for context on Karnataka/Kannada Rajyotsava, read this), I created a Twitter thread on books about Bengaluru/Bangalore that I've read. While the thread received a lot of love, more importantly, it also had Bangaloreans from all walks of life pouring in with their suggestions on their favorite books about this wonderful city that I and millions of us proudly call home.
I'm overwhelmed by your suggestions and support, and I continue to remain forever grateful. This page attempts to collate everyone's responses to create the ultimate Bengaluru/Bangalore reading list.
I apologize in advance if I've missed out on a suggestion or if I've missed giving you a shoutout/thanking you for your suggestions.
PS: To make things easier, I'm adding Amazon links for the books; however, if you can, I'd personally recommend buying these from your friendly neighborhood independent bookstore. I've added my favorites after the list of books.
