I remember when we were in Mysore ( the famed training days )and we were having an E&R session .
Everyone of us had to speak for about three minutes about something/anything.
The topic which I spoke about, was the three loves of my life ..
Some people found it very good and some people fell asleep :P
Now I have no clue as to what those three were .. it's just that now , when I think of it , books should certainly have been one of them.
I seriously don't remember when I got into the habit of reading , but that is all that I do with real passion.
The earliest I remember is finishing of Little Women & The Great Expectations before I could learn to tie my shoe laces . I still have fond memories of those characters .
There is something so nostalgic and unhurried about reading a good book that its like taking a holiday and going off to places and adventured unknown.
So here's a small photo blog for all of you , of all the books I have here :)
p.s : I don't have my Harry Potter series and quite few other beloved books here .. but I guess the ones present should make up for them.

I think dad put me into a lib to get me off his back during summer hols.. but then he was a bookworm himself...yea books are such a boundless pleasure..and ever since getting a kindle.. i cant boast of a fab picture like this and my dream of having a library is gone forever.. but i can read so much more!! Whoa! Heres to reading!
@Namesake : OMG! I love Beth too :D
I still love the old world feeling of flipping the pages :)
btw I know you already have quite the library back home :)
Gal... You should keep a like button for something like this... I think I used to be a bookworm... lost somehow in last 3-4 years (probably work pressure) but slowly catching up with it again... There was a time when I would only read fictions but ab non-fiction bhi padhta hoon... During my recent visit to Calcutta, got hold of amazing offer at Relaince Timeout... Flat 80% off... :)... Bought plenty to last for at least a year... Keep reading... :)
I haven't read Great Expectations but did watch the movie.. very intense..
Good collection by the way!
