“Take it. Read it. Return it”
Imagine you were travelling on the Delhi Metro, and found a beautiful fresh new copy of a book you've been eyeing lying around. You take the book and find a cute note inside. And it says: “Take it. Read it. Return it”. Such joyous serendipity, right?
That's what our hippoBrain guest does with her mobile library. With over 5,000 books in circulation, Shruti Sharma, founder of Books on the Delhi Metro and her 'book fairies' have spread the joy of reading over the last 4 years.
Listen to her story, her struggles and the learnings in this episode of hippoBrain. At one poignant point she says: “You cannot scrap an idea just because you cannot believe in people. You have to believe in people.”
