Books I've Read Till Now..
Its almost the end of 2012. In the beginning of each year, I set some new year resolutions for myself. I think everybody does that but only few of us actually follow our new year resolutions.
When 2012 was going to start, I also made a list of some things which I would definitely do or follow in 2012. I don't even remember where that list is.. so following the things written in that list is really impossible :P
But one thing I remember from that list was, I decided that I would read maximum books in the year 2012. Lol!
Well, as it was a new year resolution, so I can justify myself for not reading even 10 books. :P
Because of exams and busy college schedule, I had to distance myself from books. Reading books is one of my favorite hobby. Nowadays, I read very less but still, when I am free, reading a good book is the most amazing thing I can ever do.
I started reading books in seventh standard. Me and my best friends, we all loved reading books and we love it till now. I have read more than forty books since then.
Here is the list of the books which I have read till now.. I just want to double this list by next December.
Wait.. Is this another new year resolution of mine ;)
This time I will try my best :P

ReplyDeleteaahhaha,, good luck :)
ReplyDeleteI am already done with my 44th book.
:P
Idk if you have heard of Roald Dahl- He's a story writer of old.. I think Charlie and the chocolate factory was written by him..
ReplyDeleteTill the end of 10th grade I've only ever read his some crocodile book's 3 pages where half of them were covered in pictures.. oh and champak-The Indian talking animals..lol
But in 11th, when I first went to kota, My cousin there hooked me up with "5 point someone"..
Now seeing as I was preparing for IIT-JEE it was an awesome read back then.. and I completed it in 2 days..
that was my first novel.. after that, It was like a freight train of reading novels!!.. I first read all of Chetan Bhagat's
then, I thought what else could I read that'd be awesome!
I started with
-Harry Potter series, after reading'em all I went for
-Lord of the Rings, then
-The Chronicles of Narnia(I know its a children book, but still reading about how Narnia came to be in the first book hook'd me up!)
Have you ever read
-Dan Brown's collection? Its awesome with so much history and suspense in them!
I tried -Shakespeare, but after studying Julius Ceasor in 9th and 10th- i put it down as a lost cause..
try the
-Gallagher Girls series- reading them was the most embarrassing time of my life, but i think you'd find it good.. Its abt a girl spy, secret school and love story..lol
Have you ever read any
-Manga? -These are Japanese 'kind-of-comics' but are awesome in its own rights..
if all else fails- there's always
-fanfiction.net - it has almost all the fictions written by fans of various TV shows, movies, manga, anime, and whatever one could be a fan of!
It seems you have read quite a lot books...nice.. and thanks for the suggestions.. would definitely give them a try.. :)
ReplyDeleteyea.. but the books you've read look awesome too!
DeleteThanks :)
