I have recently purchased the book "Elon Musk: How the Billionaire CEO of Spacex and Tesla is Shaping Our Future". Link: Buy Elon Musk: How the Billionaire CEO of Spacex and Tesla is Shaping Our Future Book Online at Low Prices in India | Elon Musk: How the Billionaire CEO of Spacex and Tesla is Shaping Our Future Reviews & Ratings - Amazon.in

Possibly a book after a VERY long time. (Last time I remember buying a book was for academic purpose. Or on sale when I went to book fair years ago. So buying a book for non academic purpose is a great deal for me.

Read the 1st chapter. It seems to be a good book.

I don't read much now but listen to a LOT of audiobooks.

My favourite used to be Harry Potter (yeah, seriously!. No I am not a kid). Nowadays, I really liked The Martian. Hated the movie though

Try A song of Ice and Fire, its for those who enjoyed Harry Potter in their childhood, and want to go to the next step in Fantasy Lore
You can also try Stephen King's Dark Tower series, I want to get started but have no time

I am thinking of buying the GoT series. I have never seen the TV series. Can i go straight on the books or is there anything i have to read before ? Anyone who has read it could guide me please?

Yes, you can start directly without reading anything else. Although, no one knows when the remaining books will come out.
The Tv series follows a vastly different path from season 4-5 onwards.

thanks! one more thing. Is it worth buying those books?. I am having a little difficulty in lending those from library due to longer waiting period :)

I loved them but everyone's taste is different so I can not say if you'll like them or not.
You could try lending the first book from a library or a friend and if you like it you can buy the rest.

Been reading this now: The Horus Heresy (novels) - Wikipedia

I started reading this series when I was in college and since then I have been reading on-off. Only recently started reading it more seriously.

Right now I am on book number 7 out of 46.
