the addiction

a few of my favourite books, just a few, i wish i could
upload pics of all them.










since i became a member of shelfari, i got a chance to own a library comprising all the books that i have read. it gave me such pleasure. i was so happy and addicted to shelfari that i didnt want to get off that site. i could discuss books with other people and realised that many shared the same craving. there were so many books that i leanrt about. i just wish the latest books werent so expensive. liberty is the only source of buying such books but the cost sometimes makes me keep them back on the shelf. i always enter the shop with such excitement but hate leaving empty handed. anyway i discovered some alternatives. mr old books is a great place to buy cheap books from. sometimes the popular ones that are new are also available.pirated of course. but that doesnt bother me that much. books are meant for everyone, not to cater a certain class.
the books that i really want to read are
the white tiger by aravind adiga
unaccustomed earth by jhumpa lahiri
the colour purple
sense and sensibility
some good islamic books

I want to them all except sense and sensibility. Classics, meh?
