Connect her on Twitter : @thereaderscosmo
She will be the host on 5th July so do stop by her blog.
Nimi is a amazing supa-friendly, one of the sweetest person I know. she is also the PR of many good Indian Authors, they can just rely on her with their books as she is a book Advertising & Marketing whiz. She is someone you can bug anytime and she will promptly reply (but be sure to bug for something important as wasting others time isn't cool) and Nimi is also busy 24*7 with her reading/reviewing/interviewing authors/marketing books or just being helpful. She also outreaches/helps book bloggers who crave for a review copies. She is the one Readers Cosmos as her web name suggest.

Sarika and Janhvi and best buddies and co-bloggers, yes I know, they are super lucky to have a best friend who shares a most important hobby. They are charmers, sweethearts, someone you can totally rely on. They are also wonderful book bloggers who are also reading almost all the time. They are as interactive as their blog, optimists and believes in forgiving. As a bookish person, you'll find a lot common with them and they are best people to discuss books. I do that a lot.
