    Reading/Books

    I am not highly into reading and all but do have a habbit of reading novels. These days i commute to my office through metro and reading is what makes the boring commute something to look forward to.
    Currently i am reading "Degree of guilt" by Richard North Patterson and my last few reads were "The fifth Horseman" byJames Patterson, "When the bough breaks" by Jonathan Kellerman and "Second Chance" by James Patterson. Anyone who even have slightest interst in reading might have observed by now that suspense thrillers are my cup of tea when it comes to reading.
    The whole idea behind starting this thread is that so we (xbhpians interested in books & reading) can discuss & share about this common interest.

    Can start in this way

    Favourite read till date: Kiss the girls, The alchemist & madhushala

    Favurite writer: James Patterson, sidney Sheldon & Paulo Cohelo (in same order)

    Next Read: anything which can be categroized as suspense thriller

    Book which i regret reading: Thirteen Minutes by Paulo Cohelo

    You guys can add something to it..

    Off Topic Approved.

    Perhaps some book related to motorcycling can give you a good "feel" while you travel in the metro!

          its an awesome read for both the dilettantes and the voracious readers and quiet lucid style of expressing emotions...

                  well my favorite read has always been The godfather and A room full of mirrors[jimi hendrix's autobiography].

                  recently i picked up Shantaram which was really entertaining.

                  lookin forward to Adiga's book 'The White Tiger'

                      Well I always used to read Harold robbins

                      Now on hearing a suggestion from a friend I just finished "Angels and Demons" by Dan brown. Its good, I liked it a lot, guess the next read will be the same as Weird San "the white tiger" by Arvind

                        ... U should definitely read Ice Station it is equally if not faster paced than Scarecrow and i believe Scarecrow is the sequel with respect to the characters involved!.

                        But the books from Riley are awesome!! The action is Non-Stop!!
