Reading Books
I think this is one of the very few habits I picked from my dad (from the umpteen number that he has). From the school days when I finished the Non-detail books to the present I'm addicted to them. My fav author used to be Jeffrey Archer, but these days it's J.K.Rowling, John Grisham & Michael Crichton. I have finished all of Archer's, Crichton's (except for 1 r 2), Grisham & most of Ludlum, Forsyth, Irving Wallace, Ken Follet, Harold Robbins, Robin Cook (all except COMA), Clive Cussler, Alistar Maclean, Erle stanley Gardner (Perry Mason) & a few of Sheldon, James Hadley Chase, Dick Francis & lots more that I can't recollect now.
I read both English & Tamil books (fiction & non-fiction). The best Tamil book I read is Ponniyin Selvan & the best English books I have read are The Man, Seven Minutes both by Irving Wallace, Kane & Abel, Prodigal Daugter, Eleventh Commandment, Shall we tell the president by Jeffrey Archer, The client, The Firm by John Grisham, A Place called Freedom by Ken Follet & lots more.
How can we say that the book is not good when there is so much following - Manoj
The reply to this is simple, not all thats popular is great. Just think of Anbe Sivam, such an astonishing movie but a big flop. So do u mean to say that it's a bad ? Davinci Code, is a good book in it's own right but it simply is not great.
Just think of the Harry Potter series, how much imagination J.K.Rowling should have had to create a magical world. More like The Matrix.
