A new house, an early morning, time to kill, stuff to unpack, open the first carton, books jump out, stack the books, arrange in shelf, leave the categorization for later, whip out the camera, shoot!
hey, nice collection of books … & nice pic
i could notice books by quite a few of my fav. authors - Forsyth, Grisham, Sheldon, Archer.
and since its not a work of fiction, i am still contemplating whether to read “The Innocent Man” - what do you say ?
- cheers, Taks
Thats more than a million words!
The math is simple. There are 50 odd books, 350 pages per book on an average & roughly 250 words per page. Thats more than a million.
Excellent that you have the reading habit while I am still at it inculcating.
I’ve enjoyed reading your book reviews! I’m always looking for a good book. . . but of course, a great book to me may only be a fair book to another.
Have you read any of these books?
(Of course, I liked all of them; not sure that you would, but I grew curious).
‘Memoirs of a Geisha’ by Arthur Golden
The Canterbury Papers by Judith Koll Healey
The Illuminator by Brenda-Rickman Vantrease
The Good Women of China : Hidden Voices by Xinran Xue
They Poured Fire on Us From the Sky: The Story of Three Lost Boys from Sudan by Benjamin Ajak (Author), Benson Deng (Author), Alephonsian Deng (Author), Judy Bernstein (Author)
God Grew Tired of Us: A Memoir by John Bul Dau (Author), Michael S. Sweeney (Author)
nice .. though i cudnt figure out wat the bottom right book is
you could start a library - i haven’t read a whole chunk of the books there
i think you can start a alpha version of ‘Rent a Book’ Business
So many books! Have you read ‘all’ of them?
I’m still struggling to finish the last book I bought (Templar Legacy)
Now I know where to go book surfing …
Wow , you are some reader
marvelous!
you clicked this at home or at the oxford book store ??
‘Rent-A-Book’! That would be cool :-p
Bloody Hell that is!!
It could be guinness record
Rama, the bottom right book is the RD compilation of four abridged novels
obelix, that would be my personal library
kiran, haha, but I have learned not to lend books the harder way - by having people not returning them
Chittaranjan, not all but most of them. Just 3-4 would be unread…
skp,
Vishnu, that I am
Sangfroid, thanks dude
Utkarsh, dude this is my home!
alosh,
Sukesh, not by a long long way… you should see the bookshelf of my landlord… my collection is nothing…

Truly, too many books, too little time…
Taks, I’d recommend “The Innocent Man”, but be aware it is not meant for light reading
asr, nice calculations dude
Sreejith, dude if we were neighbours, we’d have been playing CS/Quake non-stop
Sarah, thanks for the praise… and somehow, of all the books that you have mentioned, I have not read any of them!!!
