No perfume is dearer to me than the wonderful smell of old books. As far as I can remember, I caught bibliomania at the age of 12 years or so. And since then I have been reading....good books and bad ones too. Good to know what is considered as good and bad to know the difference between good and bad.

    Hi...I haven't been updating my shelfari but I have not stopped reading though my work and life is hectic... the downside is I gain weight doing so because I'd rather read! I'll keep on reading even if it's the last time I do! Happy reading!

    Hi Obaid...the only book i have read about the afterlife is Many lives, many masters -- and that really makes you think.
    Now reading It happened in India ....autobiography of Kishore Biyani, the big bazaar man. No management funda....just plain, simple logic. The book is good.
    So, how's the poetry going?

    Hi Obaid, thanks for the invite. So what are you reading these days? I just finished a huge book, Shantaram, so preferred to take up a tiny novel, Parineeta (translation). Finished that, and am now reading Girl Alone, a chick-lit book. Interesting....written by my once-upon-a-time hostel roomie when I used to work in Bombay in the '80s.
