lately got my head stuck in uni text books but do enjoy a good read, i used to be a big fan of shakespeare and stuff like that.

when was younger i remeber the "Point Horror" craze, they were the only books you would look cool if you were caught reading lolz....but totally grew outa them , authors like R L Stine and Richie Tankerslycusik etc. They were in at the time.

i read anything that looks interesting.no prefrences.in english literature,mostly spy novels.robert ludum is good but i like john le carre,for his luv for details.i have read his 3,4 novels.but little drummr girl of mid 80's is so far my favourite.in urdu,humour,politics,fiction,anything.poetry is not in preference.digests of all kind from readers to urdu suspense,jassosi etc.last book that i have finished this friday is u should have stayed home,written by various travel writers abt their worst ever travels.urdu main qudratullah shahab ka shahab nama,abhi parh raha hoon.books ziada ursa ghar main nahin rehtin.

I've read the book last year when it first came out, Chandramuki recomended it. It's a good read, they're making a movie out of it as well.

angels and demons was also good.dan brown excels in mysterious stories,cults and things like this.but there is another book holy blood and holy grail,i'm in search of it since a friend told me that it is far better than davinci's code.any body read it?

I'm a bit of a book worm, I love goth and fantasy but enjoy a good book from any genre. Of Mice and Men is one of my favorites, and I'm really into Laurel K Hamilton at the moment.

Yep you have the right book in mind Sall.

There are some children's classics which I really adore, The Narnia series (I've read them all) and Enyd Blighton sp?

I've read most of the adult classics, Dickens, the Bronte sisters, Shelly, Shakespear and even Chaucer. Some of the books are a little hard to get into, but once you are immersed they are so amazing.

I can't read Urdu very well otherwise the books that Doc Sam mentioned sound interesting and I might get someone to read one of them to me.

There are some exceptional Young Adult writers, David and Lei Eddings, L.J. Smith and J.K Rowling.

I started reading the Harry Potter series in my last year of college (when I was 18), I used to be a bit anti-Potter craze but my friends encouraged me to read one book, and that's it I was hooked. It's so wholesome and imaginative, I love it.

yea,specially the names of places r so interesting in harry potter.but i did not like the movies.movie never conveys the true essence of a good book,so i think.
