Hi! I’m Trisha Reddy.

My name comes from the Sanskrit word ‘तृष्णा'
(Trishna) which means thirst for knowledge. I think in a lot of ways I try to live upto that ideal.

I’m a manic reader. What I love most about it is discussing ideas, stories and emotions with others. This blog was born in 2021 out of my desire to find other readers and document my reading/writing journey.

I LOVE swimming. Here are a few cool swims I did!

I write about navigating my 20s, my perpetually ongoing quarter life crisis and the books that I’m reading. Subscribe to my newsletter if you’d like my Brainfarts to be delivered to your email infrequently!

  • On Self Improvement

    This essay is about how self improvement became my Sisyphean boulder - an endless task that I kept working on everyday but with no end.

  • The Good Thing About Hard Things

    In 2022, the increased frequency with which I failed at things made me realize 2 things. This essay is about those two things.
