A voracious Reader and love friends who enjoy good reading.It can be anything from pulp to classics.

By the age 12 or 13 I got into the habit of reading books and continues till date.My parents encouraged my reading habits and with proper control never affected my school and college studies.Now reading has become a sort of addiction rather than a habit. I enjoy good literature and keep collecting books. With the kind of busy schedule we keep fortunately for me I could read atleast 3 hrs a day and might go upto 5 hrs.

In his book, PAINTING AS A PASTIME, Winston Churchill wrote, "What shall I do with all my books?" The answer was, "Read them, but if you cannot read them, at any rate handle them and, as it were, fondle them. Peer into them. Let them fall open where they will. Read on from the first sentence that arrests the eye. Then turn to another. Make a voyage of discovery, taking soundings of uncharted seas. Set them back on their shelves with your own hands. Arrange them on your own plan, so that if you do not know what is in them, you at least know where they are. If they cannot be your friends, let them at any rate be your acquaintances. If they cannot enter the circle of your life, do not deny them at least a nod of recognition." « less
