    I am willing to join too. Reading "Indira" by Katherine Frank. Two chapters read so far.
    Seems to a nice history book and not very dry and dull.

    Hey superb thread...Please do count me in my dear ILites.

    The books Im planning to read this year - 45

    Books I have read already this year
    1) Paradise - Judith Mcnaught (Ooooh...Mcnaught really has a way with romantic suspense)
    2) A woman of substance - Barbara Taylor Bradford (Gosh - The protagonist Emma Harte! What a character. Even fiction gives us a lot of life lessons)
    3) Right foot wrong shoe - Varsha Dixt ( An entertaining read..Simple storyline a. But told in a delightful way)
    4) From XL to S - Payal Gidwani Tiwari ( Fitness Book on Yoga postures ..Good one...But still I liked Rujuta Diwekar's book better)
    5) Double standards - Judith Mcnaught ( Im in love with the guy in the book..Nick Sinclair! Why do men like him not exist in real life ...lol)

    The one I am reading now
    6) Someone to watch over me - Judith Mcnaught ( Have just started..seems to be a suspense thriller..)

    Hi all,
    Would love to join the book challenge of this year.I am currently reading Eckhart Tolle's New Earth.This is my favourite early morning read these days.It's quite profound and thought provoking.I'm almost through,reading it.Once,i'm done with this one,plan on starting with "The power of Now" by the same author.
    The book I was reading before and made a big impression with me was 'A Prisoner of Birth' by Jeffrey Archer.Simply loved it and must have read it 10 times so far,so much sothat I know most of the contents of the book byheart.Wish to hear from someone who has read the book.In my humble opinion,a must read.

    Just finished:
    13) My kind of Girl - Buddhadeva Bose

    Good book.
    Its about four men(mostly middle-aged) who are stuck up in a railway waiting room. In order to spend time, they end up discussing the girls/ladies they fell in love with, in their prime ages...
    A simple and touching narration.

    My rating : 4/5
