I agree with Choi. That's quite some list though. Are you good with owning lists?
you have no idea how ignorant this list makes me feel :)
i've read only 1 of all listed. what makes it worse is that i know i'll never read the rest. kels. whats there.
happy reading to you!
Rorschach: You do realise that most of this is saved-up-for-holidays last-minute college ka padhai for me.
Which one, though?
Anushka: I've no idea, the only reason I made this list was to see if I could stick to it.
Choi: Porte chai, porte chai, whattodo.
Dune, Frank Herbert. i really likes!
I started reading Trainspotting too. In some book store in Bangalore during them college days. But my internship was over before I could finish the book. kels.
Ish, I REALLY hated Madame Bovary.
Trainspotting! Orhan Pamuk :D :D
Pamuk is my Love/Religion/Life. Sloppy as it sounds.
