Sunaina's recommendations for the holiday season:
1. I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith and Christmas Pudding by Nancy Mitford
2. Vikram Seth's A Suitable Boy and the new adaptation of the book by Mira Nair on Netflix, an enduring story from India
3. The Jungle Prince of Delhi by Ellen Barry, widely shared but always worth talking about as long-form inspiration
