Ray Bradbury is dead. In his memory, I'll buy a couple of his books.

@avi want to buy hobbit. Make me an offer I can't refuse.

Currently reading Neuromancer by William Gibson. It's difficult to follow what's going on, but I'm hooked.

Adult comedy,totally hilarious

Has anybody read Godan or Hard Times or The Mayor of Casterbridge ?:rolleyes:

If you are talking about Godan by Premchand then yes I've read it.Brilliant piece of writing

Please suggest me some good,simple,fun books.
P.S:No books with those 0.5 cm font.Hate those huge books.
Is digital fortress good enough for a 17 year old? :p

I will say that give Digital Fortress a go.I read it when I was 16 and I'll not hesitate to read it again now when I'm 18

cancel that, stay away from these books, they have a very good premise, but it is totally messed up because every single char behaves like they walked out of high school musical 3. It's really, really bad, example of how bad it can get, Shiva and Nandi are walking down the street, Shiva mutters "strange people", Nandi asks "What is it, My Lord?" and Shiva answers "Nothing really." exact. words. in. the. book. Chronology is messed up too. Shiva comes a thousand years after Ram. also, Shiva becomes a lecher every time Parvati is on the same page. stay away.

IMO, Chetan Bhagat is quite over-rated.

However, 2 States is a good book. Not Mind Blowing. But still, nicely written.

^nice loot, that's like the 4th LOTR cover that I liekd, guessing its all new and the bottom right corner is the most exp
Yep all new :)

Bottom right on is Algotihms by Cormen, approx 350.

The costly books are LOTR in one, Hobbit, Khaled Hosseni box set & those head first books...

yes, only CB can write better, these books use youtube comments language

picked this one up some time ago, And Another Thing... (the ellipses are in the title) by Eoin Colfer, it's part six of the Hitchhiker's trilogy (first five parts by Douglas Adams). Fans of the series will like.
