Book tagging/meme
It has been a while since i was tagged by Sud, and recently the mottai boss tagged me as well. So here im answering certain questions.
1. You're stuck inside Fahrenheit 451! which book do you want to be?
I have not read F-451, and if the question is which book i would like to save, then it has to be Ignited minds and Wings of fire by our president.
2. Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character?
My first one has to be Ivy from the movie Poison Ivy, played by Drew Barrymore. I can't recollect any "book" fictional character that i have had a crush on. May be one of the characters from one of those Eric Segal's novels, i need to revisit those novels once again.
I can't say i had a crush on this character, but i liked the female counterpart of Patrick Lanigan from the novel The Partner by John Grisham.
3. The last book you bought is:
- Rich Dad, Poor Dad
- Monk who sold his Ferrari.
- Eats, shoots and Leaves
4. The last book you read:
- Fountainhead
- Swami and his friends
5. What are you currently reading?
- Rich Dad, Poor Dad
- Monk who sold his Ferrari.
- Yes you can
- Built to last
- Ponniyin Selvan (a Tamil classic)
- Eats, shoots and Leaves
6. Five books you would take to a deserted island:
- My first favorite book was Kane and Abel, i think i will take that one.
- I have tried to read books like Suitable boy, Moors last sigh, Midnight children, and have failed due to lack of lot of things, but since now im going to be in deserted island without a volleyball for a long time, i would take those as well.
- One more would be Ponniyin Selvan, since i have to finish reading those by hook or crook.
7. Who are you going to pass this stick to and why?
Most of the people in the blog world have finished this exercise, any body who reads this blog and who have not done the exercise is welcome to take it up.

how are you able to read 6 books at the same time?
Dude, If you like "built to last" , also read " Good to great" by the same author (Jim Collins).

karthi

hmmm - u think so :)
Congratulations. I still have the baton given by Sudds. I am having extreme problems with the question: Have you ever had a crush on a fictional character?. Its hard for me to visualize that someone can fall in love with someone/something that doesn't exist. Still reading some books though...
