Fault in our stars.
41/50(2011-2012)
8/50(2012)
Fault in out stars is by far the Worst book i have read in a while.
It took me forever to finish this book.. Its an Easy read but I could care less about the characters.
It was CHEEZY to the point i almost gagged while reading. I srsly considered not finishing this book….
The writing is Preposterous. I have read all of Green’s books, so i am quiet...

Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran Foer.
I had heard a lot about this book over the years and had been meaning to read it for quiet a while. Since they made a movie out of it, I decided it was about time that I read it. And Boy was I surprised. I enjoyed this book...

6/50 2012 50Book Challenge
This book was pretty Awesome. It was for the most part unpredictable. SO many twists. Though, I could guess who the killer was, I could never guess WHY? SO as usual, a very good Miss Marple Book.

staying in bed watching Garden State..
i am home bed-ridden with Fever, headache, runny nose, sore throat and everything else that our friendly SNOW brings along with it. I had some Paracetamol and my fever is conisiderably down so I thought, why not watch one of my All-time-favorite movie GARDEN STATE for the umpteenth time. Natalie Portman is absolutely Mindblowing in this one. Zach Braff did GOOD!!! and the Music in...

the old man and the sea by Ernest Hemingway
38/50
5/50 2012 50BookChallenge
This is my first ever Hemingway. And I am so Glad now i have FINALLY read at least one of his books.
This one was a bit too short. 99 pages. Its a story about a Old Fisherman’s day in the sea. Not an interesting plot but the Story is short enough to hold your interest. Hemingway obviously does a great job depicting this character and showing us...

the Moving Finger.
37/50
4/50 4th for 2012 50BookChallege.
This Barely felt like a Ms.Marple series. As a matter of fact Miss Marple is barely in the story. She makes her entry at around page 120.. and the book is 160 pages long. And even when she makes her entry her input is very Low key.
The Suspense element is very Minimal in this one and the Murders seem least interesting. The plot seems like an...

Perks of being a wallflower!
32/50
Perks of being a wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.
OK I am not getting into too much detail about this book. Its a GOOD book Kind-of like Catcher in the Rye for this Generation. Personally, for me, I am not a HUGE fan of Catcher in the Rye…. cuz back in High school everyone went around claiming tht it was the best book every written and ALL…. but what these dumb holes dont...

JANE EYRE!!!
31/50
I finished Jane Eyre 2 days ago. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. I assume tht everyone in the English speaking world has heard of this book. Thanks to all the Series of Feature films and TV movies/series based on this BOOK. So Yeah without getting into any details about the Plot(which was spoiled for me few years ago while reading PRINCESS DIARIES series,LOL!) Let me say tht the BOOK is very...

Mr.Nobody
OK, this is By Far one of THE BEST movies I have ever seen(and i have seen a LOT of good shit). I Highly recommend it to EVERYONE. Its kind-of-a Butterfly effect MEETS Synecdoche, New York.. Sci-fi, Existential movie. And a very FEW(maybe a handful at most) has ever come so close in depicting the ideas of Existentialism in such Clarity. I am out of words… JARED LETO, I couldnot even...

A little History of Philosophy BY Nigel Warburton.
30/50
I was at the bookstore few days ago and this time around i strayed away from the Fiction section and found myself going through the Shelf of Philosophy Books. I find Philosophy very interesting and also very important. As a matter of fact, I think ONE philosophy Book can beat 1000 Fiction books Single-handedly… in terms of content… SO Once in a while, a Philosophy book is Just...

1Q84: you wont believe what I have to say about...
29/50
OK first of all I am probably Murakami’s NUMBER 1 fan. I have read all his books(all his fiction works including Short stories) and I even own all of his fiction books(excluding the short story books). So that pretty much proves my devotion for MURAKAMI.
So obviously when i first heard about 1q84 more than a year ago i was SUPER PSYCHED about it. Moreover, the fact that this was...

28/50
OK I just finsihed 1Q84 book 1.. Book 2 and 3 still remaining.
the Book 1 is 329 pages long and it follows lives of 2 characters Tengo and Aomame.
the Stories are quiet bizarre but NOT quiet as bizarre as I expected. SO far i have not come across any Intensely GRIPPING parts in this book. The book’s been translated by JAY RUBIN so its in SUPER EASY english. SO far I am loving the...

the book first came out in 1949. its a Futuristic Political Sci-Fi Horror book. So its quite a mind stimulator. but surprisingly its an easy read for the most part. the writing is Abso-Fucking-Lutely...

the lost symbol...
26/50
the Lost symbol by Dan Brown was the last book i read.
so basically i have read all Dan Brown books so far. and this might be his worst or maybe Deception point???
Anyways, Lost symbol played out more or less like a Obvious symbol.. i think the appropriate word would be NO symbol.. cuz there is none…
its just some super fabricated baseless hogwash. its a quick read and for the...
