Reading Experience
At 26,127 words across roughly 105 pages, this one runs about 2.2 hours of reading time. Long enough to dig into its subject properly, short enough that it does not lose you along the way. For food & kitchen, this length tends to work well — room to develop ideas without padding.
About the Author
The Midnight Snack Handbook was written in 2018, the year Atharva Inamdar hit Amazon bestseller lists in India, the USA, and the UK — and also the year Amazon blocked his account with ₹25 lakhs in royalties unpaid. The food writing connects back to Pune and Maharashtra — the flavors and food traditions here are personal, not researched from a distance.
