Red Right Hand
You know what it is.
I haven’t bought a book in ages!
There’s been something missing for a while. A tiny nagging something, a tiny something that’s very good at hiding itself but like a little child playing hide and seek can’t stop giggling from behind it’s hiding place.
That giggling finally gave it away, cause only yesterday I crossed a book shop and it hit me. I hadn’t bought a book in 2-3 months or more. Why? I don’t know. I don’t usually do this. I’ve often felt books are my shoes (that’s the closest to an obsession analogy I can come up with from my hearings of women lore).
The right side of my brain wants to come back with a vengeance and buy a shitload. But the left side gasps at that thought and suggests a methodical approach. Since the left side is obviously the high maintenance one, it wins.
Any suggestions?
oh and a happier new year and all that.

I would recommend the White Tiger if you haven't read it yet!
-Kangana
P.G Wodehouse- the Psmith series, the Blandings series, The Jeeves series
James Herriot - the vet series
A Case of exploding mangoes - (my latest find) so good, so absurd, so maybe true.
I also heard good reviews about the White tiger.
Dick Francis - if you love horses and the racecourse
Hmm..so many, so many to choose from
@Zee: So I picked up "Zorba the Greek". Comes highly recommended and I'm loving it so far. Break the random books trend with this dear zee.
@kangana: what's with the anon business eh? I love that bookstore...books and chocolates though not sure.
@Asphodel: tell me tell me when you find. Or wait, try Terry Pratchett.
@Aurora: I'm Calvin. Want to be Hobbes. We'll find a suzie and throw snow balls at her.
@THT:oh wow...so many new ones I haven't read. Nice.
Oh yes, Terry! very nice, have to try and read one of those in English.
Swept it up, indeed! Carl Hiassens "Basket case"
I hope it measures up...
