Sonam Kapoor wishes everyone 'Happy Reading!'

'It's been strange, while we all struggle to keep ourselves safe from this virus -- my family and I have found refuge in books we thought we'll never get the time to read.

'These days what we do is, we share our monthly reads on our family group. I'll also be putting up a few interesting ones from our Kapoor-Ahuja Quarantine Reads here, hoping you guys get a chance to read them as well,' Sonam writes.

At the moment, she's reading 50 Greatest Short Stories, compiled By Terry O'Brien.

Dad, she says, is 'nose-deep' into former Mumbai top cop Rakesh Maria's Let Me Say It Now. Will Anil play Rakesh?

Her mum Sunita is reading Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni's The Forest Of Enchantments.

Hubby Anand is reading Devdutt Pattanaik's My Gita.

Sister Rhea has just begun April Bloomfield's A Girl and Her Greens: Hearty Meals from the Garden.

Anand's mom is reading Rhonda Byrne's The Secret while his dad is 'juggling' between Ikigai, Little Book of Hygge and The Art of Simple Living by Shunmyo Masuno.

And what, Sonam, is your kid bro reading? Or is Harsh not a reader at all?

'Social distancing at the beach!! Can't get any better then this! California LOVE!'

Hope Sunny is being super careful. Coronavirus cases are on a scary upward trajectory in California.

'Relaxing lockdowns doesn't mean that we should let our guard down when it comes to taking care of ourselves, our loved ones and protecting our fellow human beings from the adverse affects of this unprecedented pandemic.'

'Some of us have the good fortune to be able to safely live in a bubble till a much awaited vaccine is found, but even then, we seem to be itching to go out, take flights, meet groups of people and all for reasons that are frivolous.'

'More than just being a risk to ourselves, what's worse, is that we are a much greater risk to others'.

'This is the time to reassess our priorities rather than give into short sighted impulsiveness.'

'Use this time wisely and always remember, good things come to those who wait.'
