Jaya: An Illustrated Retelling of the Mahabharata

these are books from ur shelf that interest me. I like books based Mahabharata and hindu mythology too. I want to read Paulo Coelho books also. so its tough choice for me

yes Gehna

To kill a mockingbird - really good
Life of pi - I didn't like it
Last leaf - it is a short story. You should read it!
Malgudi days - really good

*runs away* :P

Me too...me too

Of Mice and Men- Really good. Also May BOTM.
The Kite Runner- Really really Good. You will like it. Damn sure.
Malgudi Days- Oh helloo..? It's RKN. His name is enough.

A Midsummer's night Dream & Hamlet- Aarti, Shakespeare? Really? You serious?

*Runs away with Ginny* :P:P

Hi5, Arpit! :D

Ahemmm..Guys I'll take it from here..:p

Aarti you have just got the best of them and made it difficult for me to choose. We can do a BR cum Copycat if you choose Jaya. With a Yuganta in my hand it will be interesting to see how these two authors dissect the Mahabharata differently.

But choose anyone of em and you will not be dissapointed. If you have a busy month ahead go on with Mice and Men/Malgudi days/Last leaf.

Looking at your Read and by To read, only one came up was Yuganta and thanks to Gorab, I got a copy yesterday.

Your 5 stars and I am not looking for anything else :D

I have read dift books on Maharabharata but all in Marathi. I m not sure if I will be comfortable and get that feeling with Maharabharata in English.

I will be reading Of mice and men with BOTM

Thanks Gehna and Arpit

Arpit: " A Midsummer's night Dream & Hamlet- Aarti, Shakespeare? Really? You serious?"

why?
I want to read all shakespear someday.

Rahul: " ****Spoiler alert****

Gehna: " I also want to read all the Shakespeare's. We can have a BR, you know :-) "

It's like direct entry into high school skipping all the other classes.
I asked cause you were not into classic. Although I know that you are trying to.

I, too, want to read Complete Shakespeare someday.
We will BR some.

I happen to have it. Msg me your id

But Aarti, you are reading Of Mice and Men too, na?

when I finish this one. I will be reading with group

Mailed both of em

Thanks a lot Rahul

Most welcome :D

Aarti, like Arpit mentioned, you are new to classics so you can read some easy books before trying Shakespeare. This way you will be able to appreciate it more :-)

Yeah Gehna

Mockingbird is from the point of view of a child. Keep relishing the experience.
