Romance Forever
“Love stories are eternal,” says the New Delhi-based, multifaceted Trivedi, dreamily. And we cannot help but agree. She also brings to light her new book Nikhil and Riya, which has just hit the stands, falling under this genre. This book published by HarperCollins speaks about first love and its everlasting impact.

Child Lit Explosion

With the declining language standards of children, it is no wonder that everyone wants children to take up reading, and Trivedi thinks along the same lines. That is why 2017 is going to see an influx of this genre and it will start to grow further.

Fitness Books All Over

When an Acharya of Yoga tells you that fitness and lifestyle is a genre which will continue to resonate with people, you’d better believe it. “I can say this because I host yoga workshops for television channels and have written books on the subject as well,” points out the MBA-graduate from Columbia Business School, New York.

Yes to Non fiction

“Many writers are doing interesting work in this genre,” Trivedi says and immediately cites as an example Aarushi, the book by Avirook Sen. She is of the opinion that in this genre, books with themes that deal with current affairs and politics are particularly interesting to people. 

Spiritual Tripping

”In India, spiritual books always do well,” says the author. She also tells us to look forward to her own book, which is slated to release sometime next year. She also lets us in on the fact that she will be touring to promote her book and will soon be Chennai-bound.
