This time I m neither tag-jacking nor m I redoing a tag I had already done in facebook.
This time I m officially tagged, thanks to Roshmi.
Yay me!
So anyways, here goes the rule.
“Don't take too long to think about it. Fifteen books you've read that will always stick with you. First fifteen you can recall in no more than 15 minutes. Tag up to 15 friends, including me because I'm interested in seeing what books my friends choose”
1. Not a penny more not a penny less - J Archer.
Oh! What a fabulous book!! This had me rolling on the floor laughing for real.
2. Harry Potter series - JK Rowling.
Sorry, cannot single out any particular title. I love them all! Though I was slightly disappointed with the last book.
3. Archie Comics.
This one appeals to my inner child. *wink*
4. A thousand splendid suns - K Hossieni.
A beautifully written story representing the plight of the Afganistani women.
5. Windmills of the god- Sidney Sheldon.
I love this book. Its so gripping I read it from cover to cover in just one sitting much to the annoyance of ma!
6. The count of Monte Cristo - Alexandre Dumas .
I have been trying to read this one for ages. But somehow I never got around to reading it.
7. Malory Towers - Enid Blyton
Ever since I read the adventures of Darrell, Sally, Alicia and friends I had wished to study in a boarding school. And my wish did come true!
8. Angels and Demons - Dan Brown.
Another unputdownable. Can’t wait to catch the movie.
9. Nancy Drew and the mystery of the missing millionaires - Carolyn Keene.
The first novel I ever read.
10. The Hungry Tide - Amitav Ghosh.
A contemporary story of adventure and unlikely love in a barely farmable land.
11. Little Women - L M Alcott.
The book shows vividly the joys of growing up in a loving family.
12. The Adventures of Tom Sawyer - Mark Twain.
My favorite part is when Tom paints the fence!
13. Doctors - Erich Segal.
I like Love story. But this one, I like better.
14. The stories of Sherlock Holmes - Arthur C Doyle.
A book list can never be complete if I do not mention my favorite detective.
15. Gossip Girl: A novel - Cecily von Ziegesar.
I am currently reading this book. And no, it has nothing to do with my obsession with gossip girl, the series or my crush on Chase Crawford! *wink*
Now, I get to tag others.
Hmmm… I tag: Dazediva, Ajcl, Anil Sawan, Nutty, Nameera, Deepti, Kaddu, Viol, Riya Das, Karthik, Pratik Gupta, Vipul, Nitram, and Kokonad.
Oh! And I also tag the tagger (Roshmi) as per the rules.
And anyone else who cares to do the tag.
angry... really???
