@ unknown, one can never learn one thing from books,
love,
it's just inborn,
when one learns it, it's only acting, nothing else.

Eat My Globe by Simon Majumdar.....a hilarious story of how he chucked his job and went searching the world for the best food in every country.

@naveen: its easy to set such records when you are reading agatha christie's.
but most of my records have been set reading Harry Potters.. loved that series. holds sentimental value for me..
PG wodehouse.. master of humor is always a good read.
Kane and Abel- jeffery Archer was gripping..
Have a partiality towards Classics... Pride and Prejudice... Emma...
Shakespearan favourites... Merchant of Venice.. Romeo Juliet.. Julius Caesar.. Hamlet..
how can i forget.. Hounds of Baskerville!!!!
i like the pace of James Patterson novels too.
Was addicted to Nora Roberts at some point..
i dunno.. but its not the book but the world of the author that captures my fancy...
Aashish Sood

oh i love the HP series... and LOTR series and a lot of other similar fantasy fiction series.. Kane and Abel was good but 'As the crow flies' was even better

This is really a wonderful thread. If you are an ardent reader, it will bring in some nostalgic memories of the characters you've read. Not sure if I can mention my childhood favourites too here but it feels irresistable. Here it goes..... I've enjoyed reading -
Sleeping Beauty, Cinderalla and the Snow man
Enid Blyton's , esp. The secret seven
Agatha Christie
Wuthering Heights & Oliver twist - though gives a sad feeling throughout
Around the world in 80 days - Please dont miss this one, the thrill the story takes till the last page is amazing that I still remember it.
O Henry short stories
Bunty the Sailor doll - This one is not that popular, its a comic on the titanic story.
Shakespeare's Macbeth, Merchant of Vencie, All is well that ends well.
In the recent past, I liked
Alchemist & Da vinci code - Am no exception!
2 States - Full fun!
A Beautiful Mind by Sylvia Nasar - Am surprised none has mentioned this one.
Sidney Sheldon's master of the game - My first and last of his - was so impressed that I wrote a post on this http://pagesfromserendipity.wordpress.com/2010/09/22/sidney-sheldon-indeed-master-of-the-game/
Hindutva, Sex and Adventure by John Maclithon - If you like Indian Politics and affairs, you will like this one. Also a love story, sadly there were only 3 scenes of adventurous sex.
When my interest turned towards spirituality, I adored these ones-
Dr.Brian Weiss series - Many Lives Many Masters, Only Love is Real, Through Time Into Healing, Same Soul Many Bodies, Messages From the Masters - Mostly about Past Lives, Reincarnation and Soulmates.
Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda - This is a great book. Even people without a spiritual interest can take a read.
Hidden Forces of Life - A.S.Dalal
God Talks With Arjuna (Bhagavad Gita)
Presently reading Experiencing the Soul - Eliot Jay Rosen
After going through this thread, I am feeling impulsive to get Veronica's Decides to Die. Also in my to-read list are Paulo Coelho’s Brida, Celestial Prophecy, Tibetan Book of the Dead and Mein Kemph.
